A little rain but a nice day

Sunday, Sept. 3

Woke to rain but there was no ride planned for the day.  But not wanting to sit in  the Lodge for a whole day the group gathered in  our “meeting room” and made quick plans to visit old Forge.  Several people have trailered their bikes so we have enough cars to travel comfortably in the event of rain.   Ken even planned ahead and brought 3 or 4 walkie talkies so we can stay in touch while riding in cars if the weather requires.  Spent a couple of hours at Old Forge which is a real tourist location with gift shops, flag shops, coffee shops, restaurants, etc. up and down main street.  Back at the Lodge we spent a few hours reading or resting and then ordered pizza and wings for dinner to go along with the beer and wine provided by our host.  The lodge is just beautiful and so gracious.  We have a wonderful room provided for our meetings.  Gary had arranged with a local retired school teacher to visit us tonight and share local and Indian folklore and some history.  He talked for about an hour and was very interesting.  Well off to bed for an early day tomorrow.
