More comfortable, still hot

The temperature was about the same, maybe a couple of degrees higher but the humidity sagged to a point where it wasn't extremely uncomfortable.  I rode.

Here's another look at why 43rd Avenue South is discontinued between 42nd Street and 43rd Street.  There is a school there.
The school and grounds covers two full city blocks between 42nd and 43rd Streets and between 42nd and 44th Avenue.

This is about as close as I cared to get to the Falls while on my bicycle today.
It is Saturday, after all and on Saturday that is no place to try to go on a bicycle.  Frankly, it looks like it might be a bit dangerous on foot.

Ah, summer in the city. Complete with strange cart-like conveyances.

All of those conveyances can be found on the bike paths in and around the park. There is one spot in particular on the river road where the path dips down and is narrow between concrete walls on both sides. You really don't want to meet one of those four wheelers coming down the hill from the opposite side with a full head of steam, virtually no braking power and an amateur at the steering controls.
