Up with the teat strippers 🐄

I woke up this morning and saw it was 5 AM and said, I better get up. Trying to get back on the early morning schedule, and it’s good to maximize daylight. Lately I’ve been staying up too late and sleeping in on the morning.

Eggs 🥚 with coffee ☕ this morning, back to drinking coffee now that I have milk to put in it. Amazing how that moo juice changes everything. Good to make sure to include calcium and teeth-staining coffee in the morning. 🦷 I know it’s not just coffee that stains my teeth so badly, it’s also all that turmeric I have with lunch and other meals most days. 🍏 Also started my morning off with some water and apple cider vinegar as it’s good to start each morning with water to be hydrated and not pissing my brains out all day.

Riding out to Five Rivers to read 📖 and look at the birdies for a while. 🐦 And maybe get yelled at by the woke birder. Just because he’s woke. It’s early, I’m woke but in not that kind of way. 🌥️ Fairly cloudy to start out the morning, but it’s supposed to clear out by mid-morning. ☀️ Then I’m going to head back home, take a quick shower 🚿 and go down to the library 📚 to work on some maps I’m working on, then get some gas, and out to Lawson Lake for a paddle. 🛶 Then Sunday dinner with the folks. 👨‍👨‍👦

It’s funny to think that tomorrow is the last day of June. 🗓️ Hundred 💯 dollar month on the blog ad revenue, though these days that’s pretty pissy money but it’s probably the best of the year as traffic drops as autumn approaches. 📈 Maybe more disturbing is thought that Labor Day is 62 days and it will be October in three months. 🍁 Summer seems to end before really beginning. Summer vacation is in three to four weeks, probably out to the Finger Lakes National Forest for one last week 🏕️ 🐮 🌲 – next year it’s Michigan and Northern Wisconsin once I get my new truck. 🛻 That said I’m going to miss Big Red.

Thursday I’m pretty sure I am going to take off, 🏕️ and head back to the Potholers after getting bacon 🥓. And then lots of floating on tube ⭕ before yet another summer is done. Maybe not the perfect 👌Independence Weekend but I have a lot of fireworks 🎇 to light off. And let’s be honest, this summer is not long to be in this world. I’m going to try to get in early on Monday to get a few extra hours in avoid using up too much time ⌚ and because I have work 🖥️ to get done. The cool crisp morning today has me already thinking about Labor Day Weekend at Harmon Hill in Perkins Clearing.
