Daily Update – October 15, 2022

Good afternoon! Happy middle of October Weekend. πŸŽƒ

Bridge day down in West Virginia where they have that big party on the expressway bridge over the New River Gorge. Locally though the colors are good but already fading especially in the hills.

Partly sunny and 58 degrees at the Five Rivers Environmental Education Center. β˜€ There is a south breeze at 9 mph. πŸƒ. The dew point is 45 degrees. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Thursday around 6 am. β˜ƒοΈ

You know my reaction is basically where has the year gone. πŸ—“ In many ways I want these turbulent years to come and go in my life, my investments and savings to grow so I can have my own land. I want the recession and inflation to be over, but at the same time things are going by too fast. ⏳ And I feel like I go less and less every day.

Out to Five Rivers Environmental Education Center 🌲for a while just to observe nature 🐿️ and get my steps πŸ‘£ in for the day. I didn’t get an early start earlier as the morning was dark with a lot of fog. 🌫 Colors are already fading, they were so nice when I was at Rennselearville State Forest that very cold and windy Columbus Day Weekend πŸ‚ last week.

After I get home and have lunch πŸ” going to shower 🚿 and head over to John Wolcott apartment in Colonie. I haven’t seen him since June and while he speaks few words at this point its good to visit while I still can. It’s a pretty good trip up there but I’ll combine it with an evening πŸŒƒ walk in the Pine Bush.
