Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Maggie and I hiked again today for about 4 hours with packs in North Ottawa Dunes  The weather was very pleasant but thunderstorms were predicted. As we were headed back to the trail head and the car we heard thunder. Now you know what they say about thunder, lightening and trees!  We wanted to get out of the woods as quickly as possible. About a mile from the car the rain came and it came down in buckets...we were soaked!  Lesson learned: If it's going to rain, put the 'raincoat' on the backpack. My backpack got soaked too. We are meeting Tom today for a short 2 hour hike through Saugatuck Dunes.
