53 degrees and clearing out to the west with stars shinning down. The moon is almost due south and about 80% full as we head to the full flower moon on Saturday. 43 degrees for the low tonight.
Dawn tomorrow is at 4:55 AM with sunrise at 5:28 AM. By afternoon look forward to partly to mostly sunny skies and 69 degrees. Going to be a nice spring afternoon. Save the Pine Bush Dinner is tomorrow evening. Should be a good one.
Sleep well. Good night.
Good evening. Currently mostly overcast this evening with some sun peaking out from the west as the weather clears out for the nicer weather expected Wednesday. Around 59 degrees currently. Tomorrow’s high is expected to be around 69 degrees, which is pretty close to normal for this time of year. Sunset tonight was around 8:13 PM with dusk around 8:46.
Tuesday really wasn’t that bad of a day. I got my practice today for the big November Election Day which is 25 weeks away now. Things were slightly less hectic today at work. I’m expecting that this year won’t be as crazy as 2014 was. That highway wreck sucked but so did spraining my ankle the following year.
Looking forward to nice stretch of weather that is ahead of us. I just want spring to arrive. That said, I’m fully aware that the best days are ahead of us when it comes to summer. I look forward to hazy, hot and humid summer weekends at the Potholers.
Been thinking about the PA speaker for my truck. I think I’m going to get an unamplified model, and add amplifier later on if I decide it something I really need. This way the project is totally plug and play and will only set me back like $30. Thirty bucks these days really ain’t much money, but it will be fun to play with. I don’t need to blow out ear drums five miles away. Small 100 watt amps like found on Amazon if added later aren’t that expensive, like $30. But I doubt I will go for that. Still I like more power.

Good morning. Happy Tuesday. Second gear of the work week. 57 degrees and cloudy this morning. Mostly cloudy with a chance of shower later this afternoon and a high around 67. Sunset at 8:13 pm with dusk around 8:46 pm. Not a great day, but at least it’s no longer feeling like a winter day. That biting wind is gone. Clears out around midnight and nice spring-like weather returns for Wednesday through at least Monday. Waxing Gibbous Moon, approaching 80% visible with the full moon coming on Saturday night.
Today is School Board Election Day. None of the seats were competitive this year but it gave me an opportunity to register my thoughts about the state of education in our country nowadays. If you don’t fund something, you get less of it. Or more efficiency and less bloat. Or maybe make no difference at all. Well, it is right next door. I did make sure to support my local library. I like their fast and free WiFi at both the library and town park.
Today is Pack Rat Day. Good day for a bonfire. Just don’t tell Pete Grannis and the winny liberals in Albany. I forgot, Governor Patterson fired Grannis but not until the damage he did to our state. I heard they continued Grannis’ brush burning ban for two more weeks so if you’re within sight line of a public road, keep your bonfires looking more like campfires. You’ll be fine. Or move to Pennsylvania. Where not only allow open burning but they don’t treat gun owners like sex offenders.
On a much less political topic, the weekend weather continues to look quite nice. 73 or 74 degrees and partly sunny both days. I’m still thinking about the Adirondacks this weekend and hitting up the Save the Pine Bush Hike on the way home. Not sure if I will go paddling, hiking, or shooting, maybe a little bit of all. Depends where I’m going.
Today in 1973, televised hearings begin in the United States Senate on the Watergate scandal. Also in 1954, the United States Supreme Court hands down a unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas.
On that note, Have a great Tuesday!
