I will ride with her tomorrow morning, but hopefully she'll be able to follow the trail of kids toward landmarks that will get her the rest of the way home in the pm. I can actually meet her tomorrow for the trip home if she wants me to, but not on Thursday.

For the last day of summer vacation, by the way, it is definitely cold and wet. What seemed like a nice mist left us pretty soaked through after the 5 mile round trip.
