Do you support Trump?

Youtube Ad from the Donald Trump Campaign: Do you support Trump?

The answer is absolutely not. The guy has proven himself to be a complete buffoon, really not worthy of the presidency. Some people grow into the job, including celebrities and the alike. But the president has proven that he is unable to grow into the job and he’s hardly a reliable conservative to boot. His response to COVID-19 has been a disaster, his stance on the international stage has made our country a laughing stock. We need somebody who listens to scientists and experts for guidance, not somebody who is more interested in ideology then practical solutions to our problems.

Invasive species

If I get an unsolicited seed packet from China, I am going to find a new suburban subdivision under construction and plant it there.

Most invasive species like disturbed soils and got to make Edward Abbey proud. 🌿

This would be more fun than dropping cuttings of Japanese Knotweed next to recently poured foundations of suburbanites houses, as you have no idea what would happen with the mystery plants.

North Lake Reservoir Camping πŸ•

North Lake Reservoir Camping πŸ•

16 1/2 miles and 30 miles north of Forestport, the North Lake Reservoir serves as the headwaters to the Black River in a large reservoir maintained by the NYS Canal Authority for supplying a steady supply of water to Black River and Erie Canal via the former Black River Canal. Half of sites are on Black River Wild Forest, while most of the northernly sites are on a conservation easement. There is a sign-on booth for these campsites, permits are needed for stays over three nights. These are primitive campsites, though some of the sites along the eastern side, are accessible by a vehicle with a smaller camper on top. Boats with motors are allowed on this lake, so in summer months it may be not a quiet water. Most sites are on the water.
