Good afternoon! Happy Saturday.

Busy morning, I was up at six o’clock doing work. I feel guilty as shit for playing hookie in the wilderness last weekend while work fell on everyone.

Mostly cloudy and 54 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁ There is a east-northeast breeze at 14 mph. 🍃. The skies will clear tomorrow around 4 am.

In a little bit I am heading out to the folks house 👪 for Sunday dinner 🍔 a day earlier then normal because my parents are going out for Mother’s Day. Plus tomorrow is the tulip 🌷 festival and I’m going to help out at the Pine Bush booth.

I am thinking later of hiking Bennett Hill 🐮 🗻 and enjoying the view before dusk 🌆. It’s on my way out to the parents house so coming home I can hit it up. ⛽ With gas prices what they are these days I try to do whatever I can to consolidate trips and leave my big jacked up truck parked 🅿 as much as possible.

Probably one summer comes and the Nature Bus 🚍 returns that will be a regular thing to do on Saturdays when I’m in town. It’s fun to take the electric bus, pack a lunch, some books and a hammock and spend the day up at Thacher Park 🏞. And it doesn’t cost anything which is good with inflation so high.

Tomorrow after the Tulip 🌷 Festival I probably should go shopping 🛒 as I’m low on groceries and I need contact solution 👀 and other supplies. Probably Walmart as they still have the best prices with inflation and bulk packaging which means less to have to burn or take to the transfer station. ♻ I like lightweight plastics that can just be chucked in the garbage bag and get burnt. I hate washing out cans 🥫. Although fire 🔥 can be helpful for that too.
