Nice night up in the woods. 🌌 A lot of stars but with the humidity not as clear as you might think 🤔. Maybe it would be nice if it was a tad bit warmer but no complaints there.

I was definitely disappointed that Mine Kill Pool 🏊🏻‍♂️ was closed for the year well except for the dive tank and kiddy pool due to a maintenance issue. But that gives me an excuse to drive out to Cooperstown in the morning and try swimming at Glimmerglass State Park. Never swam in Otego Lake but it’s worth a try. It’s a ways out of the way but if I don’t go tomorrow it will be closed for the year in a few weeks.

I actually thought about going to Madison County to camp ⛺ but I bet Cherry Ridge 🍒 will be packed as is a lot of the sites up at Burnt Rossman. From fisherman to people shooting in the gravel pit to hikers and bicyclists – including one riding past at 10 pm – it’s so busy up here. I look forward to things quieting down after Labor Day but will it? Or will just a lot of folks be out hunting? 🦌 🦃 Mine Kill State Park was packed too today. I still need to get my hunting license. 🎫
