Good evening! Cloudy and 32 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a south breeze at 7 mph. 🍃. There are 2 inches of snow on the ground. β Right around freezing now so snow later but it will turn to rain for the morning commute. οΈThings will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 5 am. 🌡οΈ
Got most of the things I had on my weekend done. 📖 Did a fair amount of walking 🚶 and the new flux pen I got really helps on that cheap perf board that I got and wasn’t taking solder well. I can probably get a jar of flux to refill the pen later on. With the extra flux I should try the lead free solder too. Not great day at Schodack Island State Park, kind of gray but it’s always fun being back along the river there. 🐦
