Good evening! A nice evening after a hot day swimming. 🏊♂️
Sitting by Foster Pond for a while, saw two shooting stars but also a fair amount of haze around.
Partly clear and 77 degrees at the Town of Hector. ✨ Moderate breeze, sometimes humid sometimes cool and refreshing. Seems to be mixing of the air currents between the lakes. The dew point is 62 degrees.
Spent the bulk of the day at Enfield Glen 🏊♂️ hiking in the morning through the Glen and the Lucifer Falls Loop and exploring the Grist Mill followed by spending the bulk of the day swimming in the gorge. Refilled my propane tank and camp back to camp, bought sweet corn 🌽 and made burgers 🍔 on the grill and then read 📖 until around 9:15.
It was kind of a nice day but hot by afternoon. 🏖 The swimming was nice but it was hot especially when I had to stay out of the water 💦 for a while for a work conference call. 📞 I think I might have picked up swimmers itch from the water but the stuff I use on my feet can be sprayed on my balls ⚽ to address that. 😂
Yesterday was a quieter day at camp ⛺, cloudy ⛅ but rain free and quiet. Dusty though when cars went by from it being so dry. Got through two books, 📚 took a nice afternoon nap after some fishing 🎣 and wildlife observation at Potomac Ponds. Kind of hot and dry, did a fair bit of drinking 🍻. I kind of enjoy the more relaxed pace this year.
Somebody emailed 📧 yesterday about making some KML Google Maps up and it sent me down the long journey of thinking 💭 how I could do it in R in an automated way. I had previously been doing it by exporting the geopackages from R into QGIS but I want more control and automation over the process.

More clouds this morning but still a nice morning. The breeze makes it pleasantly cool, when the sun dips under the clouds, it actually feel quite cool.
Partly cloudy and 74 degrees at the Finger Lakes National Forest. ⛅ There is a west-northwest breeze at 10 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 66 degrees. The skies will clear around 10 am.
Yesterday, I headed into town at worked down at the library for a couple of hours. 🏊♀️ While not so hot up here in the National Forest, down in Watkins Glen it was really hot and a library was very cold. So I ended my day at the Watkins Glen Pool, got ice cream 🍦 sat down briefly by Seneca Lake until I decided that sun was super hot and glaring, and I headed back to camp.
Today is a hang out and hike from camp day. 🎣 Do some fishing,some wildlife observation. Supposed to have more sun later on. I am continuing on the plan of spend one day around camp, and one day out and about. That said, with the exteme heat expected to bake New York State in the second half of the week, I doubt I’ll be doing much hiking — more like hitting up swimming holes. I like hanging around camp though every other day, as I don’t have to feel rushed to do things and can have some beer.

Should be a good evening for star 🌟 gazing but later in the week looks more unstable but hot. Not a lot of rain though in the forecast which is nice.
