To be fair that’s what the weatherman had been predicting. I just chose not to pack more then two pairs of jeans because you know they kept talking about how oppressive the heat wave would be, ignoring the fact that the Adirondacks are much cooler and that by Saturday the heat would break and be much cooler.

I was worried all morning with the rain that my second and last pair of jeans 👖 packed would get soaked after my first pare got soaked jump starting that dude yesterday. Didn’t happen but still they got a bit wet. Soaked through with no more sufficiently warm dry clothes I’d have no choice but to cut the trip short and head home if I was chilled through. 🥶It’s not like I have the propane heater but I guess I could have built a fire 🔥.

Rain stopped to make breakfast 🍳 after a rainy morning. More of a pause in the rain then anything else by the time breakfast was done I was heading back to the truck to avoid the heavy rain. Read part of an Ebook on Foraging in New England. 🫐🫒🪴🌾 Feel asleep listening to a YouTube video I had previously downloaded explaining the concepts behind Buddhism. 🪷 Around 1 pm the sun ☀ came out for a bit, had some mushrooms 🍄 and sardines 🐟and fried up some apples 🍏 with oatmeal.

Yesterday read most of the morning 📖, especially a book about modern Javascript, Node JS, Mongo DB and VUE React. 🖥 I struggle to keep up to date with the latest coding frameworks but it could be handy for updating the blog and developing new useful scripts. I should try to find time to complete that Free Code Camp on React that I bored off a winter ago.

Went down to Potholers after jump starting that truck 🩲🏊🥽 for about two hours when I heard thunder rolling in. ⛈ Rode my bike 🚲 back to camp ⛺ and worked on my laptop – writing a guide to how to use R for work data processing. In the morning I had patched another hole in the tube ⭕ and after the thunderstorm floated in the East Canada Creek until a little after six when I went back to camp, hopped on my bicycle and did round 2 at the potholers until it get dark around 8:15 with night coming and another thunderstorm grazing the area but didn’t rain. But I was tired, no fire last night headed straight to bed in the pickup. Warm enough again that I ran the fan most of the night.
