It was a soggy gray walk this morning and I thought the dog and I had the trail all to ourselves until I heard the whistling. I turned and saw a man riding a bike with a bright lamp attached to the front. The whistling grew louder as the man on a bike pedaled closer. I snagged my dog, leashed him, and stepped to the side to let the biker pass. 

I studied the man and his rig as he passed. The rider was an elderly gentleman with a white beard. His bike was stacked with all sorts of saddle bags. He kept whistling as he rode past. The back of his bike had a blinking red light attached. 

I snapped this pic as I watched the blinking red light disappear into the barren wet trees. I could still hear his whistling even after he was no longer in sight. 

The whistling and blinking eventually dissipated and the dog and I were alone with the rain again.
