Lows Ledge
Here is Lows Ledge reflecting into Hitchins Pond. It's much larger in person then it appears in this picture, unless you have a very big computer monitor.

Weather Update – August 14, 2022
Another summer day 🌻
Not too much humidity, maybe even a bit cool for mid-August but I will take it after all the hot weather. Going to be hotter again come the second half of the week. Next weekend might be perfect for one last weekend at the potholers, especially if I can get at least part of Friday off. Labor Day Weekend, in three weekends, I am figuring I will probably go up to Mason Pond / Speculator area as I can do remote work from there as I have good cell service.

Daily Update – August 14, 2022
Good morning! Happy Sunday. 😀
Sunny and 56 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌞 Calm wind. The dew point is 53 degrees. Should be a nice day.
Yesterday, I took the Nature Bus 🚌 to Thacher Park, hiked around 15 miles including starting at the Overlook Parking, then Hop Field, the Hop Field Wetland Trail, then up to Beaver Road, hiked out to Thompsons Lake Hamlet, then down to the boat launch, campground, nature trail. 🏞 From there I took the Salisbury Trail to Perimeter Trail to Fred Schroeder Memorial and then down to High Point, then along the mountain bike trail to Hang Gliders Cliff and then out to Horseshoe Clove. It was a pretty good hike, catching the 6:20 PM bus home, some eight hours later, with a little bit of hammock time.
Today, I am not planning on a real ambitious day, 👣 after walking 40,000 steps or about 20 miles yesterday. I probably should do a morning walk today, but I am not ready to get going yet, plus I have an idea for a project I’m working on for the blog — namely 360 photos that I’ve discovered how to with my smartphone. 📸 New record on the steps.
I should probably do an early morning walk — I was up a little after 6 AM but I am enjoying my coffee. ☕ I should do a little more cleaning and putting away after summer vacation, especially if I am thinking about heading up to the Adirondacks next weekend, maybe the Potholers one last time this summer. With work, I don’t think I can be so far off grid in future weekends.
I will need to get milk 🥛 tomorrow as that plastic jug is about to hit the wastebasket. I do wish I could get milk in deposit glass. I don’t make a lot of trash 🗑 and they burn fine but it seems like such a waste. I drink less milk these days though to try to cut back a bit on the calories. Ice water 💦 is a lot more healthy.
I should think about voting, 🗳 as the early vote center down the road is now open for the Congressional primary race, but I can do that one night after work I figure. 🚶♀️ Plus, on election day, primaries all-day long in New York under some of the reforms the legislature did a few years back to make voting easier.
This afternoon I’m heading out to the folks house for Sunday dinner 🍔 and then will probably hike Bennett Hill. It’s been a few weeks since I lost caught up with them. 🚶 It’s always a nice hike and should be good and clear. The elevation gain gets the blood pumping and at let’s me get some of my steps in for the day. Truth be told I should have done my morning walk but maybe I can do some in the evening. 🌃
