Yesterday was brutally, if not frightfully, hot and humid. Today was merely hot, and less humid.
So, during my ride to Point Lookout, I didn't sweat as much as I normally do on such a ride. And I didn't even feel tired until after I'd had supper. Now I realize why I'm ready to fall asleep: I rode 65 miles in direct sunlight. Even though I stopped twice to replenish my sunscreen (and did so when I reached PL), my skin must have absorbed a pretty fair amount of solar radiation.
The "rocks" at PL are, as you can see in the photos, concrete blocks. That means, among other things, that the "beach" looks different every time I see it. If I were a painter or better photographer, I could do all sorts of interesting things with the lines and light that present themselves.
Somehow, even my bikes look different whenever I ride them there
