It's the second half of November as the label job I ran today reminds me. 🏷️ The landscape is cold and barren, it's dark out for a good portion of day, and riding home in the dark isn't much fun. But you make the best of it, and I figure the extra sleep and time to learn isn't a bad thing. πŸ›Œ Next adventure after Thanksgiving! πŸ¦ƒ Hopefully the fire risk is down by then as I want to have a big bonfire in wilderness πŸ”₯ after a good day riding trail or hiking. 🚢

Old State Road in the Albany Pine Bush

One of the many old roads that wind through the Albany Pine Bush that in recent decades have been black topped but still take you through this scenic preserve.

Ain’t Gotta Dollar – Oliver Anthony

I concede listening to Oliver Anthony may be a bad influence, but his music is so good. I mean he lives the good life.

Well I ain't gotta dollar
But I don't need a dime
I've got a little spot in the country
Where I spend all my time
And when the Sun goes down
On this itty bitty town
We can light up a bowl and pass it around
Cause I ain't got a dollar
But I don't need a dime

Now the rain could be falling
Or the sun shining down
As long as my old truck still fires on up
And there's crops growing in the ground
We'll have to pick some muscadines right off the vines
Get a little yeast and make a little wine
Cause I ain't got a dollar
But I don't need a dime
