The last 3 days have been warm and bike-able, so we did, and today is the best of the lot, so we did again! We met Len and Marlene and Dave and Patti in Wheeling and biked 18 miles south, again devouring the magnificent scenery of Fall. The leaves were already obscuring the trail and more floating leaves were pelting us as we biked, so we realize the foliage viewing will end any day now, which heightened our appreciation of the beauty.
Lunch was at Moon Doggies in Glenview, necessitating a mile detour off the trail, and we passed this overly-decorated home...
Here's the group beneath pastel trees and alongside the river...
... and the weather the next 2 days is prognosticated to be just as fine as today's, so we hope the leaves hang on for a few more days before giving in to gravity!

Definitely overkill on the home. When I was driving a cab, I used to frequently pass a home on Braeswood that decorated for the holidays and different seasons, but very tastefully. I always looked forward to seeing what they would come up with for the next one. I had the opportunity of seeing it both in daylight and at night. Neat!
I just want to know where they put all the decorations when it's not Halloween...
