It was a beautiful sunrise but I didn’t capture any photos though I’ll have a chance in future mornings I expect based on the forecast. Another cool, basically perfect autumn day ahead.

I still can’t believe it’s Labor Day Weekend 🌅 but it’s amazing weather all weekend. Need to maximize it but first eggs for breakfast 🍳 then a ride down to Hatch Brook Falls 🚲 and then lunch. In the afternoon into the evening I’m thinking 💭 of going up to Spectulator to see the fire tower lighting, maybe some kayaking 🛶 and then watch the sun set over Lake Pleasant. 📖 Plus some time to do some reading.

Had a nice fire 🔥 last night but didn’t stay up super late. ✨ It was a starry night until the full 🌕 moon filled the sky with moon light. The nights are so much longer now come September, nine o’clock seems so much later. Where did summer go so quickly I keep asking myself?
