I'm so jealous of the fruits and such that are available down in the
southwest! We got cooking greens, salad greens and herbs, a good haul
of early produce in this area.

I decided, since googlemaps said it was only 9 miles, to take my bike
and a backpack to pick it up. Did fine until mile 8, when the sun and
heat (not that terrible, but first of the season) knocked me off my
bike. I walked the last mile or so from there, and because I got
there too late to help with harvesting, but too early for the pickup,
got a tour of the farm and it's buildings. By the time I got home,
the odometer said 21 miles.

The good part is that most of the trip home is "all downhill."
