Rains came with a vengeance today.
It’s not easy riding this path, with its ups and downs. And I have to get a shout out to Slate, the old mountain goat. He is in mourning with sad news from afar these days. On this tour, Slate became a true explorer. It is not easy to keep up with him; he can make two strides in one. Life goes on. Perhaps he feels relief by letting nature do the raining for him.
