Inflation, the monster that eats everything, good or bad
IInflation makes everything more expensive, meaning that people cannot afford as much and must cut back. Previously affordable things must be scaled back, regardless if such scaling back is good or bad.
Inflation encourages conservation and cutting of wasteful spending but at the same time not all spending is bad. It encourages smaller cars and more insulation. It encourages people to reevaluate their budgets and work to live more within their means.
Inflation means that some very good government programs like college tuition programs or open space conservation will be killed off or reduced. Public programs often are victims of inflation as budgets are busted.
The plan for a national park within the central portion of the Adirondack Park was released by the Office of the Governor and proposed as consisting of 1.12 million acres owned by the state as part of the Forest Preserve and 600,000 adjoining acres owned by timber companies and other private landowners to be acquired over time for the national park. The approximate boundaries of the proposed national park would be Saranac Lakes/ Lake Placid/High Peaks to the north, the I-87 Northway to the east, Indian Lake to the south, and Fourth Lake/Stillwater Reservoir to the west. The Laurance Rockefeller plan excluded from federal acquisition Lake Placid and four other villages, Saranac Lake, Blue Mountain Lake, Inlet, and Indian Lake, all envisioned to become the principal commercial service centers for the national
I should definitely head out to Five Rivers early today
Before the clouds push in later. Maybe in the afternoon go to the library, after all it’s getting dark around 4:30 now. Helps break up the evening and I could get some data to use with maps or R programming — though I have the hotspot on my phone, it’s the first week of the data cycle, so I don’t want to use too much. By Friday of next week, we will be closest to the earliest sunset of the year.

Good morning! Happy Regular Deer Season in Southern Zone !
Cold but clear start to the deer season this week. Today is going to be cool one but that’s to be expected during the third Saturday of November each year. Thursday is Thanksgiving with a week from Tuesday being December.
Sunny and 25 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. Things will start to thaw out at around 8 am.
It’s even a bit cold in my apartment this morning, although I guess that’s to be expected this time of year. I could turn up the heat but it’s not that bad and it’s going to warm up. I expect higher heating bills this year, so keeping the heat down as long as possible isn’t a bad thing.
This morning I’ll probably walk out to Five Rivers and see what is out and about on this cold mid-November. I could run to the store for a few missing supplies, but I’ll probably skip that until tomorrow morning when I run to shop to get the new tires installed. Sunday I’ll head out to the folks house after getting the tires and some groceries. Monday, Big Red gets inspected.
I need to look at getting a new battery charger for my digital camera as since my vacation I’ve been unable to charge camera batteries, so I haven’t been able to take any high quality photos. While I don’t expect to be doing a lot of traveling the next few weeks, you never know when the opportunity presents yourself. I would for example like to do some winter camping in December.
