Well,\u00a0I guess today was the day!<\/p>\n<p>I am only an average photographer (even though I really like photography) but I did get a few nice photos. My biggest regret is that I didn&#8217;t get my photos before they groomed the trail and mowed down all the daisies that were within 2 or 3 feet of the trail.<\/p>\n<p>It really looked cool when the daisies \u00a0came right up to the trail. I am glad that they keep\u00a0the trail\u00a0maintained but\u00a0I wish that I would have gotten the photos before they mowed.<\/p>\n<p>We can&#8217;t always &#8220;stop\u00a0to smell the roses&#8221; but maybe we can &#8220;ride and enjoy the daisies&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, here is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.about-bicycles.com\/BikeTrailPages\/paul-douglas-bike-trail-daisies.html\">Paul Douglas Bike Trail Daisy Photo Page<\/a> that I just posted if you are interested in checking it out.
