After I returned to Long Island, my brother, who had returned from Europe a few months before told me he still had to update his blog. I was polite and didn't say "What's the point if the time is so far gone?" Now here I am being back in Oakland for nearly a month and I've only updated once. Oh well, this isn't a full time job, so I gotta squeeze it in between working 60 hour weeks and moving across town.
Besides the now, here's what happened all those months ago. After visiting friends in Boston, Hartford, and Glens Falls, NY I stepped into the Adirondacks of NY. A place I've been very few times in my life but have always dreamed about. It's the little bit of West that NY has clung on to. It isn't as wild, or sparsely populated, but I still happened to find some pockets that were completely to myself.

Riding along these bumpy dirt roads didn't fair well for my camera. After it died I bought a disposable, so no, these are not some fancy filter, just shots with a disposable camera.

| Loose Gravel, my favorite sign. |

I hopped off the bike and hiked up Mt. St. Regis. On top was this fire tower and quite the view.

I think I have more photos hiding on my broken phone (hopefully I can get them). Maybe I'll dump those when I'm all done with the rest of the updates.
