A Soggy Moraine Hills State Park Hike

Yet another lousy day of weather yesterday. It was cold and wet yet again, and though biking was beyond the realm of possibility, we planned to hike. At 9am as we were leaving our places to meet, the rain resumed, but the radar and weather forecast indicated it would clear out by lunch, so we rescheduled to meet for lunch at noon and then hike. Lunch was great as usual and the rain had abated, so we headed over to Moraine Hills State Park for a 6 mile hike and with hopes to see some color change. Well, we did see some muted colors...

...but 2 miles into the hike, it began misting and then raining, so we aborted the hike, contented outselves with 3 miles, and headed home with plans to try again Monday, Mother Nature permitting.
