One week to go.
My weather app shows rain in Boonsboro on Wednesday, but clear Thursday through Sunday.
...but a lot could change between now and then.

BGRs and precipitation just go together. DAMHIK
We saw this front approaching, took appropriate cover while it quickly passed over us, and were on the road again soon enough.

Have a great tine everyone. I was planning on coming, but my wife has something going on Sunday, and I need to be here. I thought about coming for part of it, but I am needed around here.
