When I think back about all the stupid things I’ve said and done over the years, when it comes down to it, doesn’t matter much at all, especially because most people don’t remember and those who do have likely moved on to other places, other jobs or to the heavens.
There is a lot of truth to the saying that time heals all wounds.

We could most certainly use some rain. Not that much based on forecast though, although you never know with these thunderstorms. I do remember that thunderstorm that hit two weeks after I left the Finger Lakes when they got a foot of rain in an hour. But it doesn’t seem like that much rain. Hot and humid today, not great sleeping weather.
Looks like it will be humid through Thursday, then Friday and Saturday should be real nice. I am thinking about taking the Nature Bus and hiking in Thacher Park Saturday, as it is always a fun adventure, and it good to save some money after burning all that expensive gas going up north during the past weekend. Sunday will be a bit more sticky.

Back to work after a long weekend up north. Unpacked my camping gear and coolers this morning after staying over night at my parents house.
Mostly cloudy, humid and 74 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☔ There is a south breeze at 14 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 60 degrees. The skies will clear around 7 pm.
Could be a stormy day today ⛈ so I guess it best to retreat to my climate controlled office. If anything, I would have been better off had I taken Friday off. But things are remarkably busy at work these days although I’ve busy closing out as much as I can out of the production book 📙. I already have work emails 📧 to address when I get into the office 🏢.
It was a nice weekend up north for the most part. 🏖 ⛺ Spent it up number 5 on Powley Road, with a lot of time reading 📖 and floating and swimming at the Potholers ⭕, listening to hours and hours of podcasts. Did some walking 🚶along Powley Road and at least to start out the weekend 🍻 some drinking. That said, alcohol isn’t nearly as much fun pushing forty as it was in my younger years. I probably should have done more to try to get my steps in during the weekend, and maybe brought my kayak 🛶 but I had fun floating on the tube, well until it sprung a leak after catching a tree branch. It’s a small leak, although I will need to run to store and get some rubber cement to fix it.
Friday night I got up north remarkably early, 🕓 as traffic heading out of the city was very light and I caught the 12 bus up to my truck fairly quickly. I was pretty fried after the week that was 😫 so I probably wasn’t particularly light on the accelerator on NY 29 or Emmonsburg Road, and got to campsite 5 fairly early. Disappointed but not surprised I didn’t get House Pond, but I did get set up early. And started drinking. And left the window open in my truck overnight with the coolers. 🐻 Fortunately, no bears decided to climb into the cab of my truck and trash the inside of my truck.
Saturday I spent a lot of the day reading, 📖 then floating above the potholers. Sunday was much the same although I also did a nice walk 🚶♀️ along Piseco-Powley Road to that other swimming hole I “discovered’ three weeks ago. 🏊♀️ Monday I drove straight out to my parents house 🏘 via the farm country of NY 10 Canajoharie, 🚜 then over NY 162 🌽 down to NY 30A to NY 443. 🍓 Nice country, although on NY 443 I got stuck behind the slowest moving car ever, and there ain’t a lot of places to pass along there.
