Out for my morning walk πΆ then down to work for another busy day. Depending if I have to work late I might go out to Five Rivers Environmental Education Center to look at the birds π¦. Hopefully I’ll get back my truck today.

I am thinking of heading up to the Speculator area again on Thursday. βΊ Another working weekend but it will at least be cooler in the mountains. I could change my mind though. Some of the beaches are open like Glimmerglass but it looks like the campgrounds at Charles Baker State Forest are still closed. π
