The build out of new developments in Wilton over the past 25 years as seen through 8 aerial photos of the area taken over time.
Feeling kind of sick this morning, but I’m doing okay, dragging myself to work. I figure after a good pan of eggs and maybe some grapes, I should be good to go. I think I’m just a bit sleepless looking forward to my vacation, or maybe I’m coming down with a minor cold. But I’m hoping to power through it and leave in about 24 hours to start heading south to Pennsylvania.
Good morning! Happy Friday Before October Vacation! Clouds, fog and 54 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a south-southeast breeze at 9 mph. π. The dew point is 51 degrees. The skies will clear Monday around 4 am.
Not sure why suddenly this morning I felt so sick π€’ though I wasn’t feeling great yesterday afternoon either. Started out like a cold with some congestion, achiness, exhaustion and now it’s progressed to more of a stomach bug. A few frequent visits to the toilet it would seem. π½ I really shouldn’t be in the office this morning, but it’s hard to call in sick the day before your vacation. I’ll wash my hands well, wear a muzzle and suck it up. Maybe it’s because I was up too late last night kneading bread and up to early to start cooking down the 15-bean soup π΅, butternut squash π and two loaves of bread. π Need to have a lot of bread ready to go as it’s not going to be easy to cook quality bread when I go down to West Virigina.
I got to the store last night an bought another pair of 34″ inch jeans. π I am amazed that I regularly fit into 34×32 inch jeans comfortably when at the beginning of the year I was regularly wearing 40×32 jeans and even they were tight. I don’t feel like I’ve lost a lot of weight but looking at photos I realize I have lost quite a bit of wait. Kind of weird how that sneaks up with you after healthy eating. I also got a bunch of supplies for camping and around the apartment, including flour to make up the bread last night. π
Today will have showers likely, then showers and possibly a thunderstorm after 2pm. π¦ High of 61 degrees at 2pm. Two degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around October 16th. Maximum dew point of 57 at 2pm. ποΈ Southeast wind 9 to 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies. The high last year was 57 degrees. The record high of 80 was set in 1965. There was a dusting of snow in 1952.β
This evening I need to run to the laundromat π to ensure I have sufficient clothing plus a pair of clothes to wear the following Monday to work when I come back from vacation. Then just a lot of packing. I just wasn’t feeling up to that last night, plus I needed to get some groceries, and needed a lot of the spices and supplies for cooking. I’ll do the best I can do tonight, but it might be raining out hard, so I might end up getting everything ready to pack come the morning. I do want to leave around 9 AM tomorrow, which I will go to the bank first, then maybe down to For the Love of Bacon, then Oneonta for Annutto’s Farm Stand then down to PA. Not a rush though as it’s going to be a rainy day.
Solar noon π is at 12:41 pm with sun having an altitude of 37.1° from the due south horizon (-33.7° vs. 6/21). A six foot person will cast a 7.9 foot shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer. The golden hour π starts at 5:28 pm with the sun in the west-southwest (250°). πΈ The sunset is in the west-southwest (257°) with the sun dropping below the horizon at 6:07 pm after setting for 2 minutes and 59 seconds with dusk around 6:34 pm, which is one minute and 33 seconds earlier than yesterday. π At dusk you’ll see the First Quarter π Moon in the south (189°) at an altitude of 19° from the horizon, 230,138 miles away. π The best time to look at the stars is after 7:09 pm. At sunset, look for rain π§ and thunderstorms π© and temperatures around 60 degrees. The dew point will be 57 degrees. There will be a south-southeast breeze at 9 mph. Today will have 10 hours and 54 minutes of daytime, a decrease of 2 minutes and 45 seconds over yesterday.
I forgot to get Five Hour Energy Shots yesterday β so I figure I’ll just put a single cup of coffee in my refigerator overnight, and leave it at that. I don’t need that much caffeine, if I’m truly desperate I’ll stop somewhere and get coffee. π₯ Then hard boiled and bananas to snack on my trip down to Pennsylvania tomorrow. I might get energy shots though for Sunday’s trip to West Virigina, as there is even fewer places to pee on that leg of the trip and I don’t want to do much cooking but instead break camp early so I can go riding as time allows at
Tonight will rain and possibly a thunderstorm. π§ Low of 55 degrees at 5am. 15 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around September 13th. Maximum dew point of 57 at 6pm. ποΈ Southeast wind 5 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible. In 2022, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 31 degrees. The record low of 17 occurred back in 1972.
I am looking forward to participating in some of those Udemy Courses now that the local library is offering them for free. π
Tomorrow will rain. π§ High of 58 degrees at 12pm. One degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around October 22nd. Maximum dew point of 55 at 6am. ποΈ Northwest wind 6 to 14 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies. The high last year was 61 degrees. The record high of 81 was set in 1979. 0.2 inches of snow fell back in 1926.β
Looking ahead to Sunday, showers likely, mainly after 2pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 51. β West wind 15 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 33 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. Going to also be windy in West Virginia but more sun. Kind of a cold night to start out my first night at West Virigina but I’ll have my propane tank topped off in Keyser and I might hot tent if necessary. β¨οΈ Figure going to be down there for nights, so I should pitch a tent, if onylt to store gear. βΊ Typical average high for the weekend is 60 degrees.
Looking ahead, there are 5 weeks until Buy Nothing Day ποΈ when the sun will be setting at 4:27 pm with dusk at 4:57 pm (Standard Time). On that day in 2022, we had partly sunny and temperatures between 49 and 24 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 46 degrees. We hit a record high of 70 back in 2014.
There are 229 summits in New York State greater then 3,000 feet elevation.

Good morning! What day is it? Day After Trump’s Final State of the Union Address or so we hope, of course. 👴 The president is such an jerk. I’m fairly conservative but I respect economists and scientists. Amazing that it took me nearly four years to figure that out but I did vote for Jill Stein. 🌎 Two weeks to February Save the Pine Dinner 🦋. Lasagna is always good. Its cloudy and dirty-dee and one third degrees as the Albany Web Blog’s Dan Van Riper would say taking the 18 bus 🚍 downtown in Delmar, NY. β There is a north-northwest breeze at 9 mph. 🍃. Temperatures will drop below freezing at around 9 am. βοΈ
The message may not move me or mean a great deal to me but it feels so groovy to say… And so goes I Dig Rock and Roll Music 🎶. I honestly don’t have to say much on this mid week. Bathroom sink is still slow so I dumped more drain solvent down it, had to spend a fair amount of time ironing my shirt 👚 and pants 👖 but that’s pretty common on dress up days. People say that I look so much nicer when I’m dressed up. That’s probably true. Lately it seems like the 8:10 bus is quite crowded, I don’t remember it being so busy weeks ago.
Today will be partly sunny 🌞, with a high of 37 degrees at 12pm. Five degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around February 23rd. Northwest wind 6 to 9 mph.

The record high of 59 was set in 1890. 10.4 inches of snow fell back in 2014.β

While it’s going to be quite cold this weekend after the fresh snow I might go out to the wilderness for a night camping. βΊ It will depend a lot on the snow depth and how windy it will be. I’m going to watch the snow over the next few days.

I went over to John Wolcott house for a few hours after work 🔎and continued working on his files. 📂 It’s been well over a year, one night most weeks. Learned a lot. I’ve started to tape record the audio 🔉 to capture some of our conversations. Now to just finish up the labels 🔖.
That bus really was smoking 💨 bad this evening. 🚍 I wonder if it’s an issue with the particle trap, I didn’t see it smoking downtown when I got one but I swear I’ve seen that bus smoking before but not all of the time. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of it at the end of my walk but no such luck.
Mild evening, I went for my evening walk 🚶. Not too cold out which is nice. I listened to a bit of President’s State of the Union address before turning it off. Honestly I’m hoping it’s Trump’s final state of the union and we will have a new president giving an inauguration address next year. 📝 I think the delayed results of the democratic caucus in Iowa kind of took all of the air out of the news cycle for the president. I’m sure he will be acquitted of the removal process later this week and hopefully we’ll have a new president soon.
