Tuesday Afternoon Ride

  A beautiful sunny day beckoned us to the beach at Ft. Phoenix in Fairhaven, MA.  Not many people but plenty of fishing, scallop boats and barges coming and going.  This is the fort that in 1778 helped defend that last American free port during the Revolution.  

Take aim.

The city of New Bedford is working on making the hurricane barrier a walking and biking path.
