I was a little concerned about a dying Elm tree I parked under camping but it was fine.I haven’t camped on the lower part of Betty Brook Road at not since the night of Barack Obama’s acceptance speech back in 2008. It was nice down there but not a drop of radio reception. Podcasts kept me entertained.

I needed to get away after last week. But it’s nice to play beach bum for a few hours, although my phone seems to think I’m playing beach but, whatever the hell that is supposed to mean.
Figured get a jump start on my tan today, using ample sunscreen, in an effort to avoid sunburn. The Mine Kill Pool is nice that it’s now free but it’s pretty small and the benches as nothing like the Watkins Glen Adirondack Chairs.
Truck is driving really great after the transmission fluid change. It seems like shifting is as smooth as velvet and it’s unshifting much earlier on hills, which really improves the driving experience. The air conditioning is nice and cold. I really can’t complain. Sometimes life sucks but you move forward.
Well I think I’m going to sit back in the sun and relax for a while before I hop back in the pool. Life is tough. But the sun is warm and water is cold.
