Elm Avenue Town Park 📍

The town’s largest park is located on Elm Avenue, one-fourth mile south of the Delmar bypass (Route 32). The park includes a pool complex, tennis and basketball courts, pavilions, fitness trail, playing fields, volleyball courts, shuffleboard, a dog park, and a playground. The basketball courts and four tennis courts are lit at night beginning in late May until late October. Winter facilities include a large ice skating rink, sledding hill, cross country skiing, and an area for snowmobiling.

September 30, 2021 – Looking Ahead This Week

Thanks to the Omega block looks like October will start out cool 🎃

I was hoping for a nice weekend, but especially up north it doesn’t look great. 🍂 I think you can say stick a fork in it at least when it comes to leaves around Pillsbury in the Adirondacks. Maybe I should have gone north last weekend.

This weekend might be okay 👌 if I stay locally. Money is kind of tight after my car insurance and rent check 💵 and I thought I had a lot of vacation days but if I take off six days to do West Virginia during the end of October 🍂 I will be running low especially if I take sometime mid November to camp out in Cazenovia. I’d like to do some more of the trailway – I’ve actually done most of it – but I’d like to do some of it again.

One possibility is to hike at a local state forest and camp ⛺ although the nights are getting cool and long so I may want something more than just a hammock and a flashlight. I thought about Schoharie but I’m thinking that for the following weekend.

Plus I’m just not sure how early it will cloud up and rain 🌧️ on Saturday. Definitely looks a lot wetter up north. I still want to do more of the Catskill Scenic Trail but if I go to Schoharie I want to do more than one night.

I ended up spending about an hour observing nature at the town park this evening 🌃

I ended up spending about an hour observing nature at the town park this evening. 🌃

The one buck I saw is growing nice little spikes, might have a good set of antlers come another month assuming he’s still around come the rut. 🦌

Saw several bats, that’s always good, they are bug vacuums. People keep telling me that white nose is killing them all off but they seem to be doing well at the town park. 🦇

Cotton tail rabbits as always. 🐰

Heard several cat birds and crickets. 🐦

Crickets are loud and tonight, kind of a hot and humid night. 🦗
