Good morning! Happy Sunday. Two weeks to Average High 70 🎑 . Mostly sunny and 55 degrees at the Green Mountain National Forest. 🌞There is a west breeze at 9 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 47 degrees.
A pretty nice quiet morning, 😁 although that baby 🤱🏻 in the campsite across the way I can hear crying 😢 a bit. The campsite is still 200 feet away but noise travels. It was nice the first half of the weekend when the site was vacant but so be it.
Last night I had a mouse 🐭 in the truck cap again. It’s not a nest, I actually spotted it climbing 🧗🏻♂️ in over the gap in the tailgate. I’m going to see if I can remove everything from from the bed today and clean around where that synthetic PMD aka oil of lemon eucalyptus 🍋 leaked earlier in the summer while camping 🏕.
Should be another nice day. 🌞No real plans, I’ll just hang around camp and walk down to Somerset along the Deerfield River later. I thought about driving 🚘 up to the Stratton Pond Trailhead but I don’t feel like hiking a crowded trail. I’d rather just stay closer to camp today.
Today will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 65 degrees at 3pm. 11 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around October 2nd. Maximum dew point of 48 at 10am. West wind around 9 mph.
