Another weekend ahead that almost looks nice enough to head out of town. 🏡 But I think it best to wait for a bit better weather and maybe take off a three-day weekend next week or wait for Memorial Day Weekend. I'm getting tired of all this rain.

East Branch Sacandaga River

|
Not a lot of water for spring, though the water levels can fluctuate a lot in. I've seen it overflowing the banks some times, and other times the river is mostly rock with a trickle of water. The main branch and the west branch have much more consistent water flow levels.

Looking Across the Hudson River

|

Not too bad of an afternoon the on the Hudson. Fairly sunny, and flat water. Much of the Hudson River between Albany and Troy is undeveloped, because when suburbia was creeping in during the 1950s and 1960s, the the Hudson River was not somewhere you would want to live near, much less kayak along.
