Definitely though not as hot and sunny as back in Albany and it’s always pretty nice up here on Hector Backbone. Not a lot of rain in the forecast though it’s actually not super dry in this part of the Finger Lakes. It’s probably drier back in Albany. But not so wet that everything is mud like often is the case up here where the soils are shallow above the bedrock.

I don’t know, I don’t care I’m on vacation. I have a vague idea that Labor Day Weekend is five weeks away but for now on vacation I refuse to acknowledge that fact. Another beautiful low humidity day in the Finger Lakes before the heat pushes in later in the week.
Mostly sunny ☀ and 60 degrees at the Finger Lakes National Forest. Calm wind. The dew point is 58 degrees.
Nice morning but I already see the clouds pushing in. 🌥 Might be a good afternoon for fishing 🎣. I also need to edit that report for work. That was part of the deal with getting this week off from work – all six days. For two full weekends and the campsite ⛺ that I wanted.
Today I’m sticking around camp, maybe fish Foster or Potomac Ponds, 🎣 do a little hiking, hang out read and listen to podcasts. 📚 My coolers are full after today, so I can make a good lunch and dinner. 🍔 I woke up much too early but I’ve gotten so used to early rising.
That said, I believe vacation need not be rushed 😎 and that’s how I plan to do things this year. Enjoy the nice days, get out and see things but not feel like I have to visit every park 🏞 and water fall in the Finger Lakes.
Last night I saw four shooting stars until I decided to head back to camp. ✨ It was a nice starry night but the lights from the froggers kind of blinded me after staring into the darkness into the evening. Plus after a hot day at the Watkins Glen pool then hiking along Rock Cabin Road in Watkins Glen I was fairly tired.
Group of people out on the pond with headlamps, shorts and spears out frogging. 🐸 They had a fire on the shore which looked so yellow compared to the stars and the bright white LED headlamps reflected off the the water. 🔥 The fireflies flickered a bright yellow. 🐝 Usually see the froggers here most years on the weekends. Nice evening though.
I got my fishing 🎣 license renewed yesterday so I can legally fish 🐠 all day in Foster Pond. I patched the inner tube and will inflate it later and head out on the pond. And maybe go for a hike somewhere. To be decided. Summer vacation. 🏖
