The sun is out, though it is pretty dark here at the moment, and there is a definite wind passing through.
We have now officially moved to "summer mode" here at the Lodge.
-
When the trees fully leaf in for the summer we spend most of the day in a fairly dark, and somewhat humid environment. It is the forest floor as our habitat.
-
Paradoxically, the winter, with no leaves on the trees, is particularly bright and dry.
-
I find this helpful in so far as I (Colin) deeply miss the sun over the winter so having an inverse sun cycle is really great.
Presently it is 8:10am here at the Lodge.
The temperature is 48 degrees F and rising.
The humidity is 63% and steady.
The barometric pressure is 29.29" of mercury and steady (yet low enough to show unstable weather potential).
Yesterday's rain showers didn't register any significant amount.
The USFS Forest Danger is LOW.
There have been a lot of hikers who went through this weekend. It was great to see you all.
There have also been a lot of folks stopping by the Lodge for Land Trust business.
Busy times here.
Finally a big thank you to George and the Dressers of Dresser's Tree Farm in Jefferson for the chance to spend yesterday morning planting frasier fir saplings. Great fun was had by all.
