I don't often talk about food on our trips, but this morning's breakfast deserves mention. Besides the bowl of fresh fruit and homemade muffins, the everything-you-can-imagine omelet was one of the best I've ever had. If I didn't have to ride today, I would have asked for seconds.
After breakfast, we hung around the B&B until almost 11 to allow it to warm up a bit. Once on the road, I enjoyed an almost perfect cycling day - mild temps, clear skies and a gentle tailwind. I started the day by backtracking to Hubbardston. From there I continued south to Pewamo and then I headed west.
This wheat field was bordered by a mass of these blue flowers. From a distance the contrast was very pretty.
Main Street in Ionia will never need to be painted. The red brick street has a white brick centerline and parking space indicators. For a brick road, it was surprisingly smooth.
Leaving Ionia, I met Betty, who lives in Battle Creek, on the Ionia River Trail. We rode together until we parted ways at Saranac. It was nice meeting you Betty!!
