Good morning! A nice Thursday morning. 🌞

Sunny and 56 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☀ Calm wind. The dew point is 56 degrees.

A pretty nice morning, though there is still a brown haze almost entirely from the air pollution this morning. 🌫 But at least the haze is high in the sky and not lingering low like Tuesday.

Still doing my walk 🚶🏻 each day before work. It is a bit harder when I have that bus to catch every day of week but Friday at 8:30 AM 🚍 but I’ve changed my mornings so I have breakfast first. 🥞 This way I don’t have to worry about loosing track of time sipping coffee ☕.

Tomorrow starts summer vacation 🏊🏻‍♂️ and time doesn’t really matter except the Watkins Glen pool opens at 11 AM. 🎑 I can stay up until 2 or 3 AM watching the shooting stars ✨. Already saw one last night.

I got propane last night. 🏮 I needed 3.9 gallons as I hadn’t filled the tank since December and there was enough cold season camping to burn it up in the heater. ⛺ Some of my hoses leak too. But I should now have enough through autumn and won’t have to worry about getting any on vacation.

This evening, I want to run to the library and get some books 📚 out for summer reading on vacation. I want to fill my water tanks, 💦 pack the dry goods 🥫 and clean clothes 👚.

On Friday, they have Wi-Fi at the laundromat 👖 so I can work down there. 👨‍💻 I also want to get money 💵 at the bank 🏦 but I will drive there as I don’t want to take cash on the bus, even though I know the risk of theft or loss is pretty low.

Then after work on Friday, I am heading west. Nice thing from working from home is I can leave right at five, ⏲ or maybe slightly before then. Some will depend on the weather. 🏕 Then I will camp and head west. I am thinking I want to do Montezuma and maybe check out the Seneca Landfill Exhibit Center or possibly one of the preserves outside of Marcellus. 🏞 Then down to the National Forest.
