Happy June! 🏳️‍🌈🐮🌼

Can you believe it’s already June? I am looking forward to a nice day up at Thacher Park riding my mountain bike, relaxing the hammock, exploring. And maybe in the evening I’ll head out for a quick overnight with the hammock, though that’s to be decided.

Hey, I was sure at this point the landlord would be working on the unit next door. 🚪 You know with all the heavy construction equipment parked outside, grinding and banging away. Apparently not, it’s very random when he’s working on the unit and when he’s not. I get some of it is Mr. Preska’s schedule with the farm and the weather, but it seems like it’s the forever project. I just don’t like how I get blocked in. And I’m still not interested in moving into that unit next door with the big rent hike of $1,100 a month. I do think if I have to move, I’ll look at the closer to Menands so it’s a short bike ride or walk to work. It’s kind of a pain transferring to shuttle bus on rainy and snowy days, and I don’t really love the idea of driving to work. 🚘

Last night I rode over to Peebles Island 🏝 and hiked around the parameter trail. Between riding to work, running errands at lunch time and heading to Peebles Island and back home rode 🚲 some forty odd miles yesterday. That was really quite the ride. Today at Thacher Park plan to do a fair amount more riding and exploring. ☀ Looks like a beautiful day. I wish I had planned a family 👪 trip for today. Time isn’t that much longer with my parents so I should enjoy it while I still can.

Finally returning that overdue library book to the library this morning, 📚 then it’s off to catching the Nature Bus to Thacher Park 🚍 on this most beautiful morning. Not a cloud in the sky this morning, though more are expected later. Then 8 hours of bliss to do whatever I want, though I could always catch an earlier bus home or ride my bike home from Thacher Park. That was a lot of fun the last time I did that so I’ll probably do it again today, lol. 😂

Not sure exactly what my plans are at Thacher Park 🏞 besides up to eight hours of bliss. Got my 10 books 📚 from Hoopla for the month of May rounding out the quota at ten o’clock last night. So lots of reading 📖. Then maybe head up to Thompsons Lake and some of the overlooks and then maybe ride back home. 🚲 The New Salem Hill is a blast on the bicycle, I hit 35 mph riding down it last year. I might go out hammock camping 🏕 this evening depending on how late I get home. I always like a good fire 🔥 and black flies aren’t so bad locally.
