Great Falls Revisited

After we had moved on past the section of trail containing GF, Elaine mentioned that she had wanted to get some post cards. Elaine and Chester enjoying lunch at Great Falls…Chester and Elaine enjoying lunch at GF.

It was not until we got past the next section until I felt I had a chance to go back to GF and get her some. She’s doing about ten miles per day, so we were getting pretty far away for a quick round trip. Anyway, I dawdled around long enough that doing the swing down to GF and picking Elaine up on time were not necessarily both possible. I took off, hit nearly every light green, and had almost no traffic all during rush hour in an area just outside of DC. When I was going in to get the post cards, I saw JD sitting in exactly the same spot where Elaine and Chester had rested a couple of days before. What a coincidence! I had to take his picture.JD just after we were at Great Falls…JD shows up shortly after Elaine and Chester had moved on to other objectives. I wonder if Jesus ever shows up without being expected.

Going back to Dickerson Conservation Park, I arrived about 20 minutes before Elaine. (I won’t say I didn’t break the speed limit, but it would be better not to get too specific.)

Lest you think that I got away with something, when I proudly handed the cards over to Elaine, it was evident that I had not gotten enough of them.
