It’s good to be home 🏡 and sleeping in my bed 🛏. Sure nights are fun in the woods but I also like a good shower 🚿 and the ability to wake up clean. Plus it’s going to be a busy day at work tomorrow with lots of Zoom Meetings do I’m going to need the Wi-Fi to get work done. Maybe if I was in the Adirondacks and near the Spectulator Library I would have stayed a few more days 🖥 but I’m back home.

Going to be hot for September tomorrow 😰 but nothing like a few months ago. I will probably work from the park 🏞 or maybe the library although I do also need to get to the laundromat. 👚 Another big long Zoom Meeting but sitting in the park with a lawn chair makes it not so bad. I also have a Pine Bush meeting tomorrow 🌲🌲🌲 and plan to go over to John Wolcott house on Wednesday. 🔎 📄
