Good morning! Monday’s come back around again.
One step closer to 2023. And the future. Things are difficult with inflation and stock market down, but I know if I invest and minimize what I consume today, things will be better tomorrow.
Cloudy and 38 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌫️ Calm wind. The skies will clear tomorrow around 9 am. Maybe a cool morning to have the windows open but I like the fresh air.
Saturday I went out Five Rivers in the morning, 🐦 then over to Mr. Wolcott’s place in Colonie, poked around the Crossings with John for a while then went for a hike at Five Mile Waterworks 🦆 and the Pine Bush Trail 🌲 along there for a while until dusk.
Sunday I was going to go to Thacher Park 🍂 but unsure how long the sun would be out, I decided instead just to do another hike out to Five Rivers via Meads Lane. I spent several hours poking around Van Dyke Preserve and Five Rivers. And it just was one of those days that started out gray and foggy, and I couldn’t get moving. I do think I missed out on some pretty leaves, but I just didn’t want to drive or deal with crowds, especially when I could walk to Five Rivers and it would save money. 👣 I guess I can’t complain too much, though after seeing other people’s photos from Thacher Park 📷 I really wish I had driven up there and just walked out to Five Rivers. I do feel like I am missing out on fall. Plus I still have questions about the reliability my of truck.
Maybe next weekend I’ll head up to Thacher Park. 🏕 Or maybe I’ll head out of town to camp. I am not sure, I am considering my options based on the weather, how busy I am with work and how well my truck is running. I am thinking maybe Madison County, but I might wait until November for that trip. Rensselearville State Forest is close but I’ve been up there a lot lately. Maybe there are other options — the thing is I will need cell service all weekend long as it’s another working weekend.
