Day 1

On Thursday night, Claire and I dropped Lynn off at the hotel, near the start of the 3 day meeting place. Overnight, the temperature dropped and it started to rain, which has not happened here in months.

On Friday, it rained all day and the temperature never got above 48F. Needless to say, Lynn was miserable. I spent the day battling with Claire's runny nose. She a little snot factory, who just loves having her nose wiped - not. Fortunately she slept for 11 hours last night. Her mobility is increasing exponentially. Not quite crawling, not quite worming. Don't turn your back on her. She is developing her own little personality though. She definitely will let you know when she wants something, or is done with something.

Back to mom, last night Lynn called and told me to find her a hotel for tonight (Sat.). I guess camping out in the cold and wet is not fun. She woke up this morning with shin splints. Ouch. Only 42 more miles to walk between today and tomorrow. I hope to have some pictures to post by Sunday. Send her an email if you get a chance.

Until the next posting, stay warm and dry.
