Saturday July 31, 2021 – Last full day camping up in the Finger Lakes
Enjoying the beauiful weather this morning, before vacation comes to an end.
Night of August 14, 2021 at House Pond Campsite
Campfire crackling in distance, a pleasant mid-summer evening, one of several four day/three night trips I ended up taking to Piseco-Powley Road in the summer that came and went.
Past Cargill Meat Solutions
One of the primary slaughter houses in the region, Cargill Meat Solutions turns cows (which enter in the one end like a barnyard) into hamburgers, steaks and other meet products outside of Wysox.
President Biden Press Conference | JEFF DUNHAM
This is so wrong but also so hilarious. A sign of the times, when the bar is set so low.
First night camping in the National Forest – July 24, 2021
This was a tent only site, due to signs about no camping in parking lots -- yahoos had to ruin it but eventually I got a drive-in campsite later in the week.
Watkins Glen to Camp
Driving from Watkins Glen back up to the National Forest where I was camping.
Excavator on 600 feet Cooling Tower (remote-controlled)
Because a blast was out of the question, the 162 meters high cooling tower of the former M?lheim-K?rlich nuclear power plant was cleared from above with a remote-controlled excavator piece by piece. After falling below a height of approx. 80 meters, a demolition excavator finally brought the cooling tower down from the ground on August 9, 2019.
Due to a faulty building permit procedure, the nuclear power plant was only in operation for about two years.
