While I was on the fence, I decided to stay in town this weekend 🏡

With gas prices so high, I have to be a bit more selective about which weeks I head out of town. Plus my truck is due for an oil change and possibly other service — I should review the manual. I doubt I will have a chance to get out of town this month, but my hope is come June, July and August I can get away at least twice a month, preferring long-weekends so I can maximize my trip.

Probably will plan on places I can park, take advantage of solar and camp all weekend without running the truck, to save fuel. House Pond Campsite is a perfect example of that with the swimming hole. Or possibly do trips out to Schoharie and Burnt Rossman and the Mine Kill Pool, which isn’t quite so far out of town and then I can visit my parents house on Sunday when I get back home. I actually somewhat prefer not to head out of town on Fridays, as I’m often tired after a long week and just want rest up before the long drive up north or out west.
