“Going to the woods is going home.”
-John Muir
Wow…The humidity this morning was the worst that it has been. And this is at 5:50 am. The equation is simple: Humidity=Horseflies. I didn’t get a half a mile into today’s hike before I was drenched. But the trail was as good as it always is and despite the humidity, it was nice to be outside.
Besides the humidity, the only other thing missing was a nice breeze. The air was perfectly still and all I could hear were the birds chirping. I didn’t even see or hear any squirrels. I’m assuming they hate they humidity as well.
Overall, however, it was a good hike and any time spent outside is far better than being inside or at work.
HAPPY HIKING!!!
Hike #15-7/3/19-4.5-68.0

Thanks very much for the comment! I think horseflies were made so we would appreciate the days without them that much more!!!! Here in the Hudson Valley, the weather folks are saying that the humidity isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. I would even prefer a light rain!
