A nice rainstorm rocked me to sleep last night in my tent and also drowned out the humming chorus of mosquitoes outside. I slept in a little bit this morning as the rain continued and got a late start at 9:30. No views or anything at all to see today except for the beautiful Upper Goose Pond, where I spent some time on the shore enjoying the breeze right at the water's edge. Sitting at a place like that is one of my very favorite things to do out here; it never gets old. Though I'm sure I'll miss out on a pancake breakfast and canoeing on the pond at the famous Upper Goose Pond Cabin, I had to keep going to make Williamstown, MA on early Friday morning for the wedding. In my cozy tent once more.
