July 23. Spent time in Lee, MA

As we left the retreat center this morning, thunderstorms hit. We had planned to slack pack and made the mistake of not bringing our rain coats. We were counting on good weather until noon. We should know better by now. We made it down the driveway to a screened in gazebo. The temperature was cool so we knew walking in this rain without our gear could put us in a bad situation. We hoped it would blow over but did not look good. Someone had given us the name Pastor Van telling us what a wonderful man he was. We called him and he gave us the ride we needed. It did clear up after a few hours until afternoon with more thunderstorms. We spent time in Lee, MA. Loving The New England states!

I went into a clothing store and put on a pair of jeans for the first time in months and was happy to fit into a size ten. Can't remember the last time :)
