Check-Ride for Jacque's New Trike-Shade

Today's Joint Trip-Tracking via APRS
 During yesterday afternoon's dog-walk down our goat-path road, the dogs suddenly seemed to notice the sunflowers in full riot again this season:

These weed-flowers do not appear every year but maybe every 3 years.  They seemed a bit slow to open their blossoms this time;  most were taller than me  before blossoming, which happened only about a week ago.Jacque spotted a shading device contraption on the internet a few days ago and promptly ordered one.  It arrived via UPS yesterday and she couldn't wait to start installing it.  Of course, the instructions were minimal and the mounting hardware didn't seem to match our needs, but she got it configured.
Pictures will follow soon...
She decided she needed some wing-nuts for the installation and of course none were included in the mounting kit so we decided to ride down North 14 to Davis Hardware and acquire some.  by the time we got to the Post Office to check the mail and deposit some bill payments in the slot, she had modified the shade mounting and no longer saw any need for wing nuts, so we just rode up to the Triangle Shell Station and took a soda/lemonade break.  We debated the idea of riding up Sandia Crest Road at least as far as the Doc Long picnic area but decided that we would save our strength for the impending group ride in Albuquerque tomorrow.
