    I've been to Rochester once. I travelled up there to see The Police in 1983. Absolutely one of the best concerts I've attended, and I've attended many over the years. You young gentleman are probably to young to remember. I believe the venue they played is no longer there.

Theyre located in the same building as the bowling alley "Pleasure lanes" (yeah, thats really what it's called 😂😂😂). Great garbage plates!! Cheers 🍻

    I use a thermarest topi lux sleeping pad while I’m backpacking. It’s 4 inches thick so you can air it down a bit for comfort and your hips and shoulders will still be off the ground. Spend the extra money on the long and wide version. This adds a bit of weight but the quality sleep is worth it.

    • @smallplots

    the white birch trees were eliminated by insect invasion - like chestnut, elm, ash tress before them. Here and there you may find a lone survivor that the bugs overlooked. Progeny are unlikely.

    Glad to see you wearing a helmet while riding your scooter. Not like some other camper we know. Since you live in an apartment, air up that sleeping pad and wash it off in the shower with dish soap and a soft brush. Opossums are never friendly but they are good at playing dead.

    That’s how it is in south Louisiana where I am. The woods come alive at night in the summer.
    I don’t go camp anywhere here I’m 75% of the year. The heat an humidity will kill a one would not make it without a bug net at all.
    Now the 1-2 months with cooler weather isn’t bad after most of the bugs are gone away.
    Just never hear people yelling about but coyote packs trotting around yelling about with each other is pretty freaky though

    What liquid attracts slugs?
    Very few slugs were caught in the water, compared to the beer. It is thought to be the combination of volatiles, and yeast that attract the slugs, and the alcohol content has been shown to have little bearing on effectiveness. “Beer definitely came out on top!”
