Beautiful weather for a bike ride

It was perfect weather for a bike ride this afternoon in the Quad Cities. It was in the upper 60s, a light wind, low humidity and not a cloud in the sky. I stopped several times along the way to take pictures of the beautiful Sylvan Slough section of the Mississippi River between downtown Moline and downtown Rock Island.

It was also a beautiful day for paddling a canoe in Sylvan Slough.

It was also perfect weather for fishing.
