Good evening! Even though it’s been a stormy Saturday I’m making the best of it ⛈

Mostly cloudy with a few rumbles of thunder and 79 degrees at the Five Rivers Environmental Education Center. ☁ There is a north-northeast breeze at 7 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 70 degrees.

Been a hotter and more humid day than was predicted by the weather man 👨. I feel like I’m in a swamp. Took the earlier bus 🚍 back from Thacher Park to hopefully avoid the worst of the rain on my walk home. 🚶🏻 Hiked to Hang Glider cliff, it was muddy, then back to the Discovery Center and hung my hammock until it started to rain. Then I hiked the Bear Trail under the escarpment 🐻 and the rain picked up. Caught the bus to Five Rivers and watching the very happy robins 🐦 and soon I’ll head home.

While it’s not been super wet here, Gilboa has gotten a lot of thunderstorms so I bet the pool was closed all day and it wouldn’t have been worthwhile to head out to Schoharie. 🏡 The Nature Bus is free and I’ve really enjoyed exploring Thacher Park worry and anxiety free 🆓 this summer.
