All summer I have been hearing from friends in Vermont about how miserably rainy the whole summer has been. Fortunately, yesterday, for the Vergennes Union High School Class of ’79 reunion the weather was perfect. It was sunny and in the low to mid-80’s. The folks who coordinated the reunion did a great job and there was a pretty good turnout. It was nice to have a chance to talk to old friends!
Anyhow, I started my trip up here on Thursday, which was a beautiful day. I kayaked on the Susquehanna River a bit north of Harrisburg, PA, en route Watkins Glen from home. I camped in the state park there for the night and the rains started at about midnight. I broke camp in the morning in the rain and it rained on and off most of the day. Yesterday was beautiful but today the rains came back with a vengeance.
This is putting a damper (no pun intended) on my kayaking and camping plans, to say the least….
