Well that was an adventure. After Jasper's soccer game, we grabbed our bikes and went up to Petit Jean. Parked trailer at visitor center and started riding knowing it was going to rain. We made it to Mather Lodge just before the skies open up. Hungry, we went on in to the ML restaurant for dinner. Nice, relaxing dinner and very yummy and very busy. I checked the souvenir shop for possible rain ponchos to buy. No, but they did give me some trash bags. Rain did not let up and it was getting late. We rode our bikes back to our trailer in the rain, dark and with hills and curves. Amé sang "Jesus Loves Me" because she was scared, and Jace fussed b/c he was cold and wet, even though he was least likely to be either. He was one of the lucky ones who got to have a trash bag to wear. Emma got to have the other. Greg, myself, and Jasper suffered the raindrops and tolerated the soaking wet clothes.
Let us remember this because when some nice guy offered a ride from Mather Lodge to our car, we politely turned him down in favor of just such an adventure.
