Clouds

We went on a 9 hour motorcycle ride through the rolling hills of Wisconsin last Saturday. The clouds were ominous all day, but they never dumped on us. The sky was pretty tame in this particular picture. I took it more for the beautiful view of the rolling hills. We pulled into the parking lot of Hansen's Hold-up Bar and Grill so I could get this shot. (We didn't eat there this time, but the view is incredible and they have decent food.)




When I looked the other direction in their parking lot, however, there were much more forbidding skies. We got a tiny bit of mist for about a minute, but that was it. The clouds kept the temp in the low 60's all day....in the middle of July, no less! It felt like a beautiful fall day and the riding was great.




Earlier in the ride, we stopped in Fountain City to stretch our legs. For some reason, the ornately designed vent on top of this building really intrigued me. That, combined with the mean looking sky, just begged for a picture.
