Dallas has a Thursday night concert series for about 4 or 5 weeks called Jazz Under the Stars. I love attending these concerts; the weather is usually nice (before it heats up). I can sit and sip on some wine, nibble on cheese, crackers and other light snacks and visit with friends.
Last night some friends invited me to bike into the city with them for the concert. The concert is on the lawn of the Dallas Museum of Art and is about 6 miles from my home. The bike ride in was fun! The leader of the group has 2 baskets on the back of his restored bike; he supplied the wine, blankets to sit on and some snacks.
The evening was beautiful! I met some new people and then just laid on my back listening to the music and conversations around me. It was really nice to just "be in the moment"!
Here are some pictures I snapped:
The concert ended at 10. We started packing the bikes up and said our goodbyes. One of the couples I met were actors in local theaters and both very good looking!
I reached home after 11pm. I probably will not bike in again. I was too sweaty and full of adrenaline to go immediately asleep. I finally cooled down and drifted off to sleep way way way after my usual bedtime. I'm a little tired today.
Happy Friday everyone!

What's up with all the phallic skyscraper photos?

Why don't you come over?
I hope you weren't riding on the streets after dark. That scares me. Are there bike paths that can get you all the way in to downtown?
