Weather Update – December 11, 2021
Rain and wind today, then nice for balance of the week. π¬ π
Or as I like to call it, the days after Big Red is back on the road.
Rain today. π§ The only thing on my agenda is going down to the library. And continuing to play with and learn more with R for making graphics, and some reading.
Sunday heading out to folks house for Sunday lunch. π½ I might try to get up early and hike Bennett Hill or somewhere else in the morning for a good hike/walk. Last day of deer season, so I probably will stay out of State Forest and let people trying their luck get it done in peace.
Monday I’ll probably go somewhere locally, π¦ but where to go is yet to be decided. It is going to be in the 50s and quite sunny βοΈ. Maybe Papscanne Island in Rennselaer County, then I can hit up Aldis for some groceries and those wonderful German Christmas cookies they have. I also need to get cookie dough πͺ as I have to bake cookies for that down-scaled Christmas Party we are having in the era of the COVID.
Tuesday is one of the days of Holiday Celebration Week at work, π€Ά which is replacing the work Christmas Party this year. I also have Ethics Training in the morning (lucky me), and then in the evening, I am getting both my TDAP and COVID booster. π I will probably walk down to CVS, as it was a nice walk last week I tried to get my booster and they were out.
Wednesday is work from home, π» as part of the holiday spirit week, although with my hotspot, I can work from anywhere I please. π± I might go out somewhere fun, although I have to be careful as my laptop battery doesn’t hold much charge anymore, so it’s either work from home, the library, or the truck.
Starting next Saturday, π I am off for a work through the Sunday after Christmas, and I’m not totally sure on my plans. Maybe a road trip somewhere — I might go out to Finger Lakes if it’s for a week, as the nice thing is Potamac Road is plowed, and I don’t need a camping permit to camp there for a full week. Plus the number of places available in other areas in the winter is limited due to snow and seasonal use only roads. The Adirondacks can be tough to camp for a week, as there just isn’t the stores like there is in Watkins Glen for shopping. Sure you got Charlie John’s but it’s expensive. Plus camping on NY 8 can be noisy with the traffic. But if it doesn’t look like there will be a full week of decent weather, then I might consider three nights up along East Branch in the Adirondacks, but it’s not my first choice. I figure I either use the vacation time or forfeit it on December 31st, as I can’t roll it over.
