A cool autumn but not cold feeling without the wind and lots of sunshine.

Taking down camp 🏕️ once again but as soon as Friday morning if the weather is decent I’ll be back in the woods as I’m thinking of doing a long weekend up in Madison County at Charles Baker State Forest. 🚵 Thinking about riding trail and maybe bringing the kayak 🛶 and on Saturday or Sunday paddling up through Nine Mile Swamp.

Probably check out Huyck Preserve 🚶 midday then maybe log in and process some of the data jobs at the Rennselaerville Library, then head home unpack, shower 🚿 and hop on my bike 🚲 and ride down to Hannaford for at least enough groceries for the first half of the week. Monday I’ll go to the laundromat to have clean clothes for work and then Thursday get propane, supplies and fuel ⛽ for my truck in preparation for that Columbus Day Weekend trip to Madison County.

Who knows though, the hurricanes 🌀 down south could change track or other things happen between now and the end of the week to change my mind. But I would like to do a trip to Madison County when it’s still colorful, warm enough to kayak and the trails are still open at Charles Baker. But I do fully admit it will be a busy weekend for work so it won’t be all fun and games.
