Good afternoon! Happy Easter 🐰

Well I hope the Easter bunny doesn’t freeze off you know what today. That wind and clouds just makes it feels cold. And I could be camping in this weather. Did I mention the Adirondacks might get a half foot of snow tomorrow? Mid April 😂.

Cloudy and cold around 40 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌫️ Breezy, ️16 mph breeze from the northwest 🌬 . Temperatures will drop below freezing at tomorrow around 3 am. ☃️

Easter is late this year but spring didn’t beat it. 🌸 Of course hitting eighty degrees last week on the day I was busy with work didn’t help much. Good Friday was nice but I was tired 😴 and didn’t get out to enjoy Five Rivers as much as I wanted.

Yesterday afternoon and evening absolutely poured 🌧️ so I never made it to the library 📚 as planned but the cans and bottles ↘ got recycled and I had a nice walk 🚶 at Hollyhock. 🐦 It was cold damp and windy so not a lot of birds. Tossed in a fishing 🎣 line for a bit.

While I took tomorrow off, 🗻 having stayed in town this weekend I think I’ll just go into the office 🏢 downtown. Save the day for nicer weather, maybe in May.

Easter dinner with the folks this evening 🍲 and then I’m thinking of hiking Blodgett Hill this evening. Officially the trail is closed due to logging but there won’t be any logging on Easter 🎋and it would be interesting to see what trees are being cut and if the state foresters are taking steps to minimize harm. I’m hoping to see them doing more mechanical removal to reduce the fuel load and be preparing for another controlled burn of the scrub oak pitch pine ecosystem up top.

Next weekend I have a family 👪 gathering so I can’t head out of town but maybe the following weekend. Who knows after tomorrow their might be a ton of snow 🌨 up north although I can’t imagine it will last. I’m hoping that last weekend of April to get out of town. ⛺
