Another early day of driving and this time it really was uneventful...no breakdowns. With the rain during the night and early morning, it was overcast for most all of the day, sprinkling a bit on the road, and then going in to Highmore, we even had to go through some thick fog.
We stopped to grab a quick snack and fuel the Dodge, before heading to Gettysburg. Even though the temperature was only in the 70's, the humidity was making it seem a lot hotter than it was...and we never saw the sun.
We got to the farm and pulled in to park, making a bit of a mess of the road going to the parking spot. Apparently, it had rained an inch last night...much needed for the crop.
We stopped to chat with Danny before we left to come back to Hamill, getting caught up on how the crop was coming along...a lot better now that it rained. We had a late lunch at the Medicine Rock in Gettysburg, then struck out again, this time we got to travel back in the same vehicle.
We dropped off a couple of cold Canadian beer for Drew, our hero from yesterday. He was cleaning out a big truck when we pulled into the yard and looked like he could really use a cold drink. We thanked him again, then started driving again.
Back at Hamill, the skies were pretty dark to the west and it wasn't long before it started raining. We have a stationary front that is just hanging around and it has been raining for several hours and doesn't show any signs of letting up.
They need the rain here, too...
