January 17, 2010 - Hopewell, NJ
Rain was predicted with some mixed precipitation north and west. We got light rain at first but it steadily increased. It was definitely cold as I was taking pictures and videos, at least on my ungloved hands. Despite the situation, there was a good turnout but not even close to the turnout the last time we visited Hillbilly Hall.
Videos sometimes stop and start. Just let them finish and then hit Replay.
