So it would seem every year we have one day that’s cloudy with showers but not a wash out. It’s almost a tradition camping up here in Perkins Clearing.

I guess such weather should not surprise me at this point. Just a few rain drops earlier but hardly what I would describe as a real nice day, cloudy and cool. Tomorrow is shaping up to much warmer and sunnier, I think I’m glad I brought the tube now seeing the latest forecast. Might float for a while on the Jessup River before riding out on Jessup River Road. I haven’t decided if I am going to go to Speculator or drive around on Sunday evening to try to see some of the lit up fire towers. It might be fun to watch the sunset from Watch Hill and definitely have a good view of Snowy from there, but I don’t know if Snowy will be lit up. I should check!

Assuming the rain holds off, I am probably going to do a bit of riding this afternoon, but I also want to spend some time reading. I found some firewood around, not sure if it will be nice enough to have a fire this evening, but only time will tell. It was a nice evening last night but a bit buggy at time. Mosquitoes were biting, but some DEET on the face helped with that. I actually went to bed fairly early, but then I woke up during the middle of the night and early in the morning though I didn’t get up too early, as it’s pretty dark this morning. Pancakes for breakfast this morning.

I discovered I could turn off notifications for the Bluetooth disabled in the Drive Safe and Save app 📱, so now I’m quite good with it. Maybe it’s bad but I don’t care much about the privacy 🔏 of my trips because at this point with cellphones always pinging, cops cars all with license plate readers and the cops 👮 installing stationary license plate reader’s privacy is dead at this point at any rate. I’m not getting dinged for having Waze on my phone or having the screen on, nor even reading text messages. Of course it kept pinging the sensor on my truck telling me it was Ready and Waiting to Record ⏺ at Trip last night when I was stoned out of my mind by the campfire. No not a good idea to drive then. Lol. Dr😂
