Out for a hike in the Albany Pine Bush Preserve on this most frigid of evenings. I figured I would go there after going to JC Penny to buy some more dress shirts for work.

I was happy that they had the Oxford shirts I like but my oh my is the mall experience between the traffic and lines at the cashier is a miserable experience. I find it hard to believe people go to the maul for recreational purposes.

The wind is howling around at the preserve. The dunes do help to block some of the wind though. Heard the whistle of a bird and saw some kind of bird fly by.

I really enjoy walking in the preserve around dusk.
