Day 8. 30 miles.

We left Huntington at 4pm. Dark storm clouds loomed before us, and a cool wind blew all around. Within minutes, we were fighting our way through a torrential thunder storm, with slabs of water pelting our bare skin and lightning bolts crashing in front of us. A woman in a car waved for us to follow her into her driveway. She happened to be one of Adam's neighbors, so we hung out in her garage until the storm had passed. Eager to be back on our bikes after two days' rest, we made it to Burlington in no time at all. In town, we had a barbeque with some of Adam's friends, and said goodbye to the Green Mountain State.
