Switched cars with Chris Saylor, giving him back his 4Runner and taking my FJ. Tested it out by drving up to the summit to check on the big trailmap sign.

Drove down to Shunk, stopping at Wegman's in Binghamton for food and a yummy deli sandwich for dinner. My hip was sore for the first couple hours of the drive, but then it was okay for the remainder. Arrived at dusk to a cold empty house with no running water, as the house had already been shut down for the winter.

Absolutely beautiful day up at the lake. I crutched around a little and moved some of the deck furniture in. That night i set my camera at its maximum ISO setting (3200) and tried taking some pictures of the stars, even though there was a very bright half moon in the sky lighting up the landscape.

Cloudy and cooler today. I took the trampoline apart and cleared enough boats out of the way to back my camper into the barn.

Took the day off work and drove home from Shunk.

Spent the day puttering around the house and watching live ultimate from Nationals in Frisco, Texas, broadcast on ESPN3! Zowie.

Seera asleep in the driveway.

Josh and i drove up to the summit to hang some signs. This was his first time up there. I told him that on a clear day, you could see Mt. Washington. It was one of those days.

First snow of the season. Nothing stuck for long.

Back up to the summit to put up a few more signs.

That afternoon i dropped my FJ off at Byrne's Truck Center to get Waxoyled. I rode the bus home after looking around in Mike's Country Store across the street for a while.

Three or four sets of trick-or-treaters that night. Kind of a drizzly cold rainy night to be out.
