Friday was beautiful, and though the rain threatened we did not get wet. By the time we got to Fredericksburg the sun was out and the temp was near 80 degrees.
Saturday was cold and windy. This necessitated clothing myself in every article of clothing in my pannier:
Bottom half:
- Cotton calf-length socks of CLH’s
- My running socks
- Leggings purchased that afternoon at Wal-Mart and adorned in the ladies restroom
- My only pair of jeans
Top half:
- Quick-dry running tank top
- Plain black t-shirt
- Long john top purchased at Wal-Mart and adorned in the ladies restroom
- Turtleneck sweater
- Button-up hooded sweater
On head:
- Neck of turtleneck pulled up to my nose
- Hood of hoodie worn under helmet
- Red bandana tied over nose, mouth and ears to keep the snot at bay
- Helmet
It was a good trip. Pictures coming later this week.


Can’t wait to see pictures from the top of that big rock. I bet that was fun.
