Sometimes It Rains

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes...it rains. Think about that for awhile." 

- Ebby Calvin LaLoosh (Tim Robbins) in Ron Shelton's "Bull Durham"

Here in the mid-Atlantic region this time of year is affectionately known as the "Dark Ages," and the last four days has delivered weather that backed up that nickname.

A good friend of mine from England once observed that, "There's no such thing as bad weather...Only inappropriate clothing." 

Fortunately for the cause of the pilgrimage, I've learned a thing or two about clothing over the years, and though the pictures aren't the best, I've managed to stay warm and (mostly) dry out on the trail.

Here's to hoping that the sun reveals itself to us mere mortals soon, but if it doesn't I'm going to continue to enjoy the trail.
