The Letter S

Exploring the sand dunes and beach on Presque Isle.
70 mile walk
How many roads must a man walk down before they call him a man?
This weekend I walked 28 miles, which includes 16 miles today. 70 miles for the past seven days.
I haven’t done a true 20 miler since last summer so I should do one next. Need to just devote a day and plan a route. Maybe walk to Thacher Park and back from Delmar. Or maybe somewhere else.
Then I want to walk in late April from Kiwanis Park in Rotterdam to the Schoharie Crossing which is a 30 miles round trip. While not strenuous terrain it will be a 12 hour walk from 6 am to 6 pm which will include ample time for lunch and breaks. It will build practice for all day walking.
Come April I’m planning to practice walking around the neighborhood with a 30 lb on my back in preparation for the 50 miler.
Already I’ve cut nearly all processed foods and sugar out of my diet and working eat a diet with lots of low glycenmic index foods to maintain stable blood sugar levels. Planning to get a physical later in April before the 30 mile walk.
This Morning At The Bus Stop
A pretty quiet and fairly sunny morning in Delmar, just waiting for the local bus .... a pretty unremarkable morning.

Daily Update – September 8, 2022
Good morning! Happy Thursday. π
Kind of a dark and dreary morning. I am not moving fast, despite waking up before 6 AM and barely catching the 8:30 AM local downtown. I don’t know why, I think it’s the darker mornings with September underway. Usually though I’m good at catching the express, as I really don’t want to take the local when I can avoid it.
Overcast, with fog and 60 degrees at the CDTA Bus Stop #10595. π« Calm wind. The dew point is 59 degrees. They are talking about more sun later, but first we have to wait for the fog to burn off.
I am still wearing my muzzle on the bus π· even though the Governor dropped the mask mandate yesterday, in celebration of the upcoming election. But if the politicians tell you not to do something, then it’s probably best to do it otherwise. As politicians primary care about getting re-elected and patronage jobs and not public health. Especially with cold season upon us π it just some prudent to wear a muzzle especially in tight spaces like a bus. π
The weekend is rushing towards me again, π I have made no real plans for the weekend. I thought about heading out of town but maybe not. It’s a Thacher Park weekend on the Nature Bus πΈ so that’s always a fun and easy choice that doesn’t cost anything. I’ve been thinking about doing a Schoharie trip or maybe Rensslearville State Forest in a future weekend, when I can remote work on a Friday. π»
