August 30, 2016 8 AM Update

A pretty nice morning and I got an early enough of a start to walk down to the express bus stop. It’s good to get a little exercise and soak in some rays before I get stuck in the office all day. Plus the express bus is much more scenic. I’m glad they at least retained the earlier bus.

To add to my list of things to do on Saturday, I plan to install a switch for the CB radio and run a power line to power the new mini-amp I bought to boost the currently muffled output of the PA speaker on my truck. I also got to get the dash cam mounted. I also have to fix one of the lights in the truck cap (again), and do the oil change. I should also get a hair cut. I need to do some cleaning around the apartment.

After that though I think I will be good to go out to Schoharie County for wilderness camping, assuming the weather holds out. I’ve picked out the general area where I want to camp, and while I’ve never walked the land, I’ve driven it and studied the arterial photos. I think it will work well. Sunday I will hike and swim at Mine Kill State Park, and plan to return home fairly early on Labor Day.
