We had showers during the night, but the morning, though cloudy, did not Ensemble Sweats Pas CHer prevent our moving on to Lake Bonney, distant, according to our calculation, between four and five miles. To determine this correctly, however, I ordered Mr. Poole to run the chain from the river to the lake.
