Day 27: T 10/9- Another cloudy day

After our short day on Monday, we were ready to make some good miles and were ready for better weather any time. It felt like a moving target tho, every time we checked, they had extended the rain and cold another day or two.
Luckily tho, Tuesday never delivered any real rain and we made good time through more refuge area. We were surrounded by large hills with exposed cliffs covered with fall trees.
We stopped a couple of miles before the next lock and dam on an island off to the side of the main channel. The other side was a marsh like cove filled with ducks and geese, chattering away. We found a dry-ish spot and set up the tent. They called for rain in the night, so we tied the tarp over the tent as well, just in case. Ended up not raining at all, as far as we could tell, and we woke to a sunny morning filtering through the trees.
