Balsam Swamp is a sprawling state forest that stretches almost 5.5 miles east-west across 4 towns. The area is very rural, and the landscape surrounding the State Forest is predominantly forested. Balsam Swamp State Forest is comprised of a mix of native hardwood forests, hemlock swamps, and conifer plantations. There are no designated recreational trails on the forest, but there is ample opportunity for self-guided day hikes to explore the diversity of habitats represented on this State Forest. Additionally, the western section of Balsam Swamp State Forest is adjacent to Five Streams State Forest to the south.
The main attraction of this forest is Balsam Pond. The impoundment is approximately 152 acres and is a popular destination for fishing and paddle boat sports. Balsam Pond is a warm water fishery that contains a mix of largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, chain pickerel, yellow perch, brown bullhead and sunfish. Tiger muskellunge have been stocked in the past with the last stocking occurring in 1995. However, there have been very few reports of anglers catching any of the adult tiger muskies. A shallow gravel boat launch is suitable for launching small fishing boats.
A small rustic camp ground is also located at Balsam Pond. Camping spaces are available at no cost on a first-come, first-serve basis and there is no running water or electricity. A fire ring, outhouse, and picnic table are provided for each camping space. A sign on Balsam-Tyler Road in Pharsalia designates the entrance to the boat launch and camping facility. This is a carry-in carry-out facility. Please do not litter.
Good morning! Happy Valentines Day. ♥ Finally warm and bright enough to walk at 6:15. I think it’s the first time in months. But the days are getting longer. It’s a nice dawn, with a declining half 🌗 moon above. Not sure if it will be the best sunrise ever though due to the clouds in the east.
Mostly cloudy and 37 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁ Breezy, ️18 mph breeze from the northwest 🌬 with gusts up to 28 mph 💨💨💨. But it’s a fairly warm breeze by February standards. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Friday around 3 pm. ☃️
It’s nice to get out early, it tends to better equalize the time in the morning 🥚 to have breakfast and get my clothes ironed before work and shower 🚿. Having a single pool of time ⌚ just means if one step runs longer I don’t fall behind on my SC especially as the express leaves about 15 minutes before the local.

Going to be a nice day, something like the first day of calendar spring. 🌷 But then again that’s only a month away and it’s been quite mild. Too much sunlight in the morning means I have to draw the shades but later in the afternoon the sun is nice. Not sure if I’ll get out at five to take the express home but so be it.

Today is pay day which is nice 💵 as I think my credit card bill is due soon 💳 and it’s been higher with inflation and the many trips that I made this year. Probably also need to start saving for my tax bill and car insurance 🚙 which will be another chunk of change. But it looks like until Friday my heat will be off which is good.

Fairly mild but maybe cloudy ⛅ for the second half of the weekend. I guess it would be kind of nice to get out of town this weekend. ⛺ There isn’t a lot of snow outside of the Adirondacks so trails might be muddy especially after Thursdays rain.

Can you believe Monday is already done? ⌛ Last week seemed to also go by in a flash. It seems like life is going by so quickly these days but maybe that’s intentional on my part. I put a lot of things into auto pilot ✈ as if you make good habits happen they compound.

It was nice taking the express bus 🚍 both ways to work today on a session dress up day. That said the morning bus was running late and then the ramp getting onto 787 was closed due to construction. But it beats taking the local. As planned I got off at the Plaza to get a few extra steps in.

I heard something about a football 🏈 game on the radio 📻 this morning while listening to the BBC report on climate change and the ocean 🌎 which I found more interesting. Then I got up, reheated the coffee and pancakes 🥞. Saves so much time. I have actually no idea how long the game went on, but Walmart wasn’t crowded last night at 6 PM and I was in bed by 9 PM.
Great morning for the walk. 🚶 Lots of fresh crisp air with a slight taste of barnyard 🐮 on it. No sunrise yet but it’s coming. Mostly clear skies which is nice. Shower 🚿 and catch the express at 8:15 right from by home which is great. I will probably get off at the Plaza and walk over to the SOB where I work for some extra steps though I don’t have to if it looks like there is a lot of protestors at the Plaza. 👣 Tomorrow I might do my walk at 6:15 rather than a as there is quite a bit of daylight now in the morning. Then so breakfast second.

I’ve decided as part of my calorie reduction program 🍏 to focus on eating a minimum of 2-3 lb of fruits and vegetables a day. I’ve noticed already that with a more stable blood sugar levels and a full stomach that does more reduce calories than anything else. You look at the calories labels and you really can’t eat enough fruits and vegetables to get fat off them. 🤰🏼 Plus eating fruits and vegetables is far more fun than saying no, no matter what the puritans tell you. I am restocking the fruit bowl 🍊 today.

A picture perfect weekend on tap. 😎 Saturday, sunny, with a high near 39. Sunday, partly sunny, with a high near 47. Typical average high for the weekend is 37 degrees.
Now the question 🙋 for the weekend is where to go. I know many people would like me to go to hell but I already live and work there so I’m thinking more likely Schoharie or Madison County would be good. The horse 🐴 trails in Madison County would likely thought be muddy. I did really enjoy that trip.

Hiked thirty one 3️⃣1️⃣ miles this weekend which isn’t too bad. 🚶 Drove fewer miles than I walked. I hiked to Norman’s Kills Falls, Meads Road, Van Dyke Preserve, Five Rivers, the Town Park in the morning today, then later on Bennett Hill and Blodgett Hill in the afternoon. Didn’t get into a wreck heading over to Blodgett Hill before dark but maybe almost a ticket for speeding. 🎫
I was my usual Sunday driver self 🚘, hiked Bennett Hill and in the evening Blodgett Hill. I know I should have squeezed in Copeland Hill too but I didn’t have the time. Visited with my parents 🍲 and went to the Walmart to make sure that I had enough fruits and vegetables for the week. The goal should be 2.5 – 3 lb a day or 18 lbs of fruits and veggies or so a week. 🍏
I kind of loss track of the time at my parents house 🕒 and blew past a cop 🚨 on 32 rushing over to Blodgett Hill to get up it before dark but I didn’t get stopped. I really was only going a few miles over the 55 rural speed limit – maybe 57 or 59, and it wasn’t really a speed trap as the cop was driving but I’m such a slow driver 🐢 as it saves fuel ⛽ in my big jacked up truck which is already too expensive.

Maybe I’ll have to turn my heat back on. ♨ I was hoping it would be closer to freezing and I could get away with having it. Truth is I don’t mind the cold, especially with my heated blanket. I’m sure when I own my own land 🚜 I’ll let the fire die down before bed. 🛏 I’m increasingly opposed to central heating, I prefer to sleep in the cold.

Tomorrow starts the new express bus 🚍 going right past my house which is perfect for me on a session day. I plan to get an early start for my walk, 🚶 and then shower 🚿 and iron my shirt so I can out for the bus at 8:15. Plan calls for getting off at the Plaza and walking underground to work.

It’s the Sunday morning hike on Bennett Hill 🗻 same one I do every week before going out see the folks. Nice day though it started out cold. But it is now starting to feel like a mid March day. Sun angle has been getting a lot stronger the past few days so when it’s sunny out and not too windy it warms up fast.

Split pea soup 🥙 for lunch at my folks house and then I’ll probably sit out back with the dog 🐶. If I leave early enough I might do a jot up Blodgett Hill. Then I need to get some groceries 🍌, mostly the perishable healthy kind. If not for needing oranges and bananas for work I probably could skip that trip. But I’m eating healthier in my 40s.

I wanted toget out by 6:30 🌄 but it was too dark and cold. So I started my walk around 7. While I don’t have to go to work today, I wanted to avoid the crowds 👪 on the rail trail. Looks like I missed the worse of it. There were some early morning 🐶 dog walkers in town and I thought the rail trail would be crowded but so far it’s not.

Norman’s Kill Gorge and the Noonan Preserve this morning 🚂 and then maybe Five Rivers Environmental Education Center and Meads Road this afternoon after lunch. 🐸 That will cover the bulk of the daylight hours and then I’ll retire early to bed 🛏.

Walking home from the Park and Ride lot 🅿 I was thinking this was the last time I’ll have to do it but I might continue to get off there if the weather is nice on days when I have to dress up for work. But those days when the weather is bad the express is a good option and I don’t have to depend on asking the driver to drop me off at home. 🏡 Plus it’s really good for all those session mornings and it gets me to the office 🏢 a little earlier than which is good as a director to be in early.

Last month, January my gas and electric bill was $103 which isn’t bad figuring its January and inflation. 🔌 I don’t like paying much for gas and electricity as I don’t think I get much value out of it. It was outside of that first week of February that one Friday and Saturday a very mild month and I’ve been keeping my heat to a minimum level especially now that I have that heated blanket. But it’s mostly been do to that very mild weather.

Pasta for dinner tonight. 🍝 That used to be my go to but it has a lot of calories and it’s not real filling so I eat too much. I just abided by the one bowl rule, no second helpings, included a lot frozen corn 🌽 and had a bunch of frozen strawberries and bananas for dessert. And now I have at least two or three more meals I’ll freeze for next week for lunch and dinner. I try to mix things up.
