Haven't been up here in a few weeks cause Gracie doesn't like the heat. Cool and foggy this morning. She would like it colder though, much colder actually.
For me personally it was this outdoor concert.
What's a favorite "Outdoor Concert" that you've attended? 🎶 In what marks the first time a rock band headlines a stadium in the United States, The Beatles play Shea Stadium, in New York, home of The Mets on August 15, 1965. With Beatlemania in full force, the screaming girls drown out the band, 👇

On our way to Mets against Pirates
The Garcia Project last night. Dear Prudence was our wedding song a hundred years ago.
Don’t know who wrote this — it was posted on Instagram by “Warpaint Journal” in April 2025 — but it’s making the rounds today and is pretty great. I dream of this too ❤️
Looking forward to the Garcia Project tonight. I think this is the fourth consecutive year they’ve played at this great free summer series.
My first GD show. That's me and my old late friend Dave on the left in the coffee table book pic. 50 years ago ffs.
My old LI buddy John promotes a nice little festival, Jerry Jam 20 this year.
From yesterday…… Remembering Jerry Garcia on his birthday. JG is sitting in with the Greenbriar Boys. Vassar Clements, Jerry on banjo, Rob Stoner, Frank Wakefield, John Herald play a bluegrass set at the Golden State Bluegrass Festival 4/28/74 in San Francisco. Ben Haller photo
Got a last minute campsite this past weekend. Must have been a last minute cancellation because it was one of the nicest campground sites.
Too smoky for a bike ride. An easy paddle seemed like a better idea.
My old school bike computer this morning. Good thing I was going much slower when I spooked two separate deers and a fawn.
Last night DSO at Rock the Dock on Lake George. View from one of three docked boats surrounding the pit (dock).
A beaver sighting from a couple years ago. Someone asked if I'd ever seen a tail slap.
Winter lingers a long time in the Brooks Range. This snow pack during the second week of June along the river is just beginning to melt into blue pools. Gate of the Arctic National Park, Alaska #nationalparks #alaska #mountains #rivers #winter #snow #ice #hiking
After the hot weather paddling in a light rain was nice. A heron also escorted me out of its territory.
Excited that I scored tickets, a campsite (lucky) and a dog sitter for DSO at Lake George on my birthday.
Nice morning on the Chenango River for canoes and turtles.
51 years ago today or close, I forgot the exact date.
Well I wasn’t planning to but I guess I’m going to the Rumble Ponies game tonight.
very important BREAKING news: Mikal Bridges' dog, Sonny, will be joining him at the parade tomorrow
