Good evening! Mostly clear and 70 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a south-southeast breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 63 degrees. Warm enough evening, I decided to fire up the fan. ⚛
Not a half bad Tuesday with lots of meetings and fun stuff to do. 🌲🌲🌲🌲 Hiked in the Pine Bush for a couple of hours including after dark and went to a socially distant outdoors meeting.
Been a little achy this evening. 😧 Not sure what the issue is but its not that bad. Feels a little like chronic Lyme a bit but maybe I’m just cranky that I’m back home. But I had that Pine Bush meeting to attend so that was good.
