The decision to build an ark may be a prudent decision. Lets meet at Slocan and paddle home together if this rain continues.
Wow, I hope nobody drowned yesterday. We've been very dry this whole week in the south-east states.

Nice sunrise on the way in. I tried to get to a nice picture taking spot but the orange colors had mostly gone just before I got there.

I'm still wearing shorts and just a long-sleeve shirt for these 44F mornings. I'm okay riding, but after I've been sitting at my desk for about 10 minutes, a chill kicks in. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I may need to store some hot chocolate or something to warm me from the inside. {shiver**
