The first thing on this morning's agenda was departure from Nickerson. Unfortunately for me, as you can see all of the outside preparation for this was done in a pretty good rain. This was only the second time I have had to do this in the rain, which is really a pretty good record, so I was not complaining -- too loudly. Joya kindly snapped this picture of me to really capture the essence of the moment. You can see how much fun I am having.
We did successfully get off, and headed North towards Boston. Jody had found another nice state park just South of "Bean Town" -- Wompatuck State Park. We got set up fine -- and without rain -- and decided to explore the vicinity. We drove through the beautiful New England countryside, through little towns like Hingham, East Hingham, Hingham Center, and such. We were looking for a Kinko's in order to retrieve all of our email and update this web site. As we ambled around somewhat aimlessly, we stumbled on a video store, where the helpful owners not only directed us to a Kinko's, but also rented us a DVD -- Traffic. On the way, we dined like kings at a Dunkin' Donuts (really), and finally found the Kinko's at about 9 PM. It took until nearly midnight to get everything done -- this was the last of the processes needed to move this site to dougnjody.net. Even though it was late, when we got home we watched the movie, finally getting to sleep around 2. |
