And the rain
continues….
There was
steady rain and much thunder all night Wednesday, and we awoke to a soaking wet
campsite. It was a good morning to
lounge around and read, have a big breakfast, and listen to the rain on the
roof.
There was a
break in the weather around noon, so we were able to get Ranger (and us) out
for a bit of exercise. We walked up the
park road to the top of the “mound” where we were able to climb an observation
tower that provided a view for miles around. In better weather it would have
made a great picture! A trail through
the woods brought us back to the campsite where we were able to enjoy our
recliners outside for a few hours of reading before all the Dorgans arrived for
another visit. It was too wet to sit at
the picnic table so we all stood around for awhile, then headed into Mount
Horeb for dinner at the Grumpy Troll Brewery and Restaurant. By this time, the sky was black with
an approaching storm, but fortunately it resulted in just more rain, no high
winds or hail.
Early to bed,
with another drive tomorrow, and again we listened to a steady drumming on the
roof as we fell asleep.
