Daily Update – May 25, 2022

Good morning! What day is it? Hump Day, of course. 🐪

If you punch in your clutch now, you can maybe coast into the Memorial Day Weekend. With gas prices so high, that might be an advisable option, as nobody as has the money these days to be riding the accelerator hard on their car.

Partly sunny and 58 degrees in Delmar, NY. 😎 There is a south breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 49 degrees.

A nice morning for the walk. 🚶‍♀️ I was out walking a little after 6 AM because the sun was out and shining and I was awake. Came home, had breakfast and took an early local to work. I am thinking one summer gets underway and session is done, I might do the early morning walk, then shower and take the later express downtown, 🚌 rather then taking the early express and walking the plaza. Things are lot cooler early in the morning. 🌅 At some point I fully expect the summer heat and humidity to return.

A pretty late night at work, 👨‍💼 I had a meeting that ran until 9 PM and then caught the local home. Interesting presentation but there where two off them and it went too long. At least they got us dinner. 🌯 I guess late nights at work are something to expect this time of year, and it’s good that next week should hopefully be the last big hurrah and then things get quiet for a while.

I am thinking about possibly catching the Nature Bus from Five Rivers to the Pine Bush on Saturday 🌲 and doing some hiking there, although I have to think about how the schedule will work. I am just too busy to head out of town this weekend, but maybe next. 🏕 The farther you get away from Memorial Day Weekend the less bad the black flies will be 🐜 plus I would rather take some weekday off where it’s quiet and I can camp 🏕 where I want and spend the days floating in the rubber intertube. ⚫ With gas prices what they are these days, ⛽ nobody wants to drive anywhere they don’t have to, me included.

The following weekend I might head north 🏕 or maybe wait another weekend depending on the weather. I also am due for an oil change, tire rotation and other maintance on Big Red. I would like to get away for 3-4 nights, come June.
