Good evening! There is a pretty good thunderstorm rolling through and 65 degrees in Delmar. ⚡ Not a lot of lightening here but lots of flashes to the north, some good gusts of breeze and rain. Raining hard enough to sound like a cow pissing. Breezy, ️16 mph breeze from the west-southwest 🌬 with gusts up to 28 mph 💨💨💨. The dew point is 58 degrees.

My truck is pretty much ready to go just the normal things to pack come morning. 🎒I went grocery shopping after work and then went to the Pine Bush meeting. Camp after work tomorrow in the Greens. ⛺ It would be nice if the bosses let us leave at 3 pm tomorrow but that’s probably unlikely although today was the slowest day at work in probably two months for me. Sexual harassment training was awful but I survived it. I treat women and my colleagues with respect, although I guess it’s good to have a refresher.

It’s off to the Green Mountains 🗻 tomorrow. Maybe Branch Pond Road, maybe closer to Grout Pond or Forest Road 73. I’m thinking about hiking to Downer Glen or maybe Lye Brook Falls or maybe I’ll just hang out at camp. ⛺ I do want to camp somewhere I have a bit of space so I don’t have to worry about making too much noise. 🔊
