Riding With Wild Mustangs Looking For Dorothy & Toto

No, those are not wild mustangs you are looking at here, frolicking across the Oklahoma prairie, celebrating the arrival of the new iteration of the Roaring 20s.

These are tame mustangs, frolicking slightly south of Oklahoma, in a pond on the MSU (Midwestern State University) campus.

It seems like it was last year the last time I rolled my bike wheels around Sikes Lake and the MSU campus, en route to Hamilton Park and the Circle Trail.

Today a strong wind blew cold from the north, which made for pleasant rolling heading south on the Circle Trail, rolling at high speed in the highest gear.

Before leaving MSU and arriving at the Circle Trail I rolled around the remains of the Fantasy of Lights, with the lights now dimmed, until later in the year.

As you can clearly see, above, via the view over my handlebars, Dorothy, the Scarecrow, Tin Man, Cowardly Lion and Toto, have now left the Yellow Brick Road, possibly having managed to enter the Emerald City.

This time of year one sees a lot of people still in New Year Resolution mode, out getting much needed exercise. This phenomenon is always noticeable. And this new year it has been particularly noticeable in the Wichita Bluff Nature Area.
