Today went well despite being Friday the 13th, although I didn’t get out until after 5 pm and ended up taking the local home 🏡. I had dinner – tuna salad – and went for my evening walk 🚶. Came home watched a few YouTube videos I downloaded earlier in the week at the library. I got the button working on my phone 📱 again – just loose or corroded contacts on the phone.

Tomorrow though seems rainy ☔ or at least cloudy ☁ but that’s fine, I’m helping my sister move. 🎁 Sunday of this week I’m thinking about hiking Windham High Peak, it’s been a few years. 🗻

Next weekend is starting to look really nice. 🐦 Bird watch hike a week from Saturday and then I might go to the Adirondacks for an overnight. ⛺ I probably won’t go all the way to Moose River Plains but it might be nice enough for one more weekend at the potholers. 🏊
