No problema, DM. If you live in Pennsylvania, it's almost impossible to be a stranger to riding in the rain! It rains very hard back east, and I have hydroplaned my motorcycle in many Pennsylvania rainstorms. 8O I don't enjoy riding in the rain, and I avoid it whenever possible. Fortunately, my part of Idaho only gets 12 inches of precipitation per year.

Thanks for posting all the great aerial photographs, Doc! I meant to thank you earlier, but I got sidetracked working on completing this ride report. :roll:
