My daughter Amy & her husband, Dustin rode over to the house to join up with me and Amanda, my other daughter, for the ride to the meeting point. Here are Amy & Dustin.
Here are Amanda and me. Amanda likes to ride on the bike and she was my passenger today.

The mesquites stayed green. No fall foliage to be seen in our part of Texas yet..Maybe in January....
