September 14, 2015 evening

It always seems to be a Monday, until it no longer is a Monday.

Sixty-four degrees and clear tonight.Β With such clear conditions and a new moon, it’s an excellent evening to go out and look at the stars. Warm weather returns tomorrow, as we look for a high around 78 degrees and plenty of sun. Despite the somewhat warmer temperatures, a dew point in the low to mid 50s will make the air feel pleasant, and with a moderate (10 MPH) north-west breeze, it might actually feel a fair bit cooler then what the mercury says.

Have a great evening! Sleep well.

September 14, 2015 afternoon

Good afternoon. Currently 73 degrees and with blue skies and some clouds. One thing I’ve noticed since September has rolled around is how much the evening shadows are creeping over downtown buildings. Sunset is at 7:07 PM and civil twilight at 7:45. New moon.

As had been the case recently, traffic leaving the city is really bad. The few extra cars due to school being in session and vacations being over have caused extensive delays. At least I’m not driving.

Last night enabled a new feature on the blog that lets you like posts and photos. Made some other adjustments and miscellaneous blog fixes, and will be featuring new, more modern maps that include the wildlife management units. Little fixes here and there. I don’t expect many major changes this winter.

Off to Mom and Dad’s house to pet sit. I thought about going out back to the campsite at the creek but things are a bit wet and the wind probably would make it cold sitting out back by the fire. Maybe tomorrow.

Been playing with my camera phone and figuring out what I can do with it on Instagram. The fixed lens and camera quality sucks on the first generation Moto E I have but I’m learning how to use it for creative effect. As much as the camera sucks, I love the FM radio feature. It’s nice being able to listen to All Things Considered on the bus ride home without using a ton of bandwidth.
