Towards Bennington

It was windy and cold on the tower but it's nice to get away and I like looking at the rural landscape in with all its browns and grays against the deep blue skies. The Petersburg Ridge reminds me a bit of West Virginia.

What if Bible True?

The sign in rural Rennselear County asked, “What if Bible True?” ✝️

If it is, we are all fucked, it’s as simple as that. Even if it’s not true we probably are fucked. Humanity has proven itself time and time again to be non sustainable, I really doubt there is all that much of a future ahead for us a species. And for all that bible worshipping and humping out there it seems like most religious folk don’t do much to live up to the words in the good book.

Weather Update – December 13, 2021

I don’t know about you, but I’ll take a fifty degree day in mid-December 😎

Assuming those clouds decide to push away, which right now they are kind of stuck around. But maybe they won’t last forever. Next Saturday doesn’t look that good for getting out of town, but I might leave on Sunday then or maybe not at all. I have next week off, but I am in no obligation to head out of town. Certainly staying at home could save money, although I still would like to get away for a few nights next week.

Good Morning – December 13, 2021

Good morning! 18 days left in 2021 on this Monday. πŸ“…

Time goes by so quickly. I am old enough to remember when it was still 2019. But in two and half weeks, we will be celebrating the double deuce, the year of twenty-two in the twenty first century with our muzzles on, at least if you go some public place indoors. Not sure how much it will stop the COVID, but it will give the socialists boners in their pants, knowing that they are morally superior.

Partly cloudy and 34 degrees in Delmar, NY. β›… There is a south breeze at 6 mph. πŸƒ. Temperatures will drop below freezing at tomorrow around 8 pm. β˜ƒοΈ

Kind of a dark morning, but I’m up and going. πŸŒ… At some point the sun will rise and clouds will part. I have today, so I want to do some hiking, but first I want to stop by Tractor Supply in Glenmont or maybe in Rensselaer County and get some propane.

I am thinking about going out to Beebe Hill or maybe Taconic Trail to hike today. β›½ I am going to need fuel before then though, and I don’t want to go too far from home. Maybe Grafton Lakes to the fire tower and some of the trails I have never done? I haven’t hiked there in a while. That’s an interesting option.

I need to wash my kitchen floor. 🧽 It’s so dirty these days. I keep telling myself I need to do that. Maybe after my trip. I did scrub down the counters and part of the bathrooms yesterday.

It really is cold in my apartment, ❄️ I really should turn up the heat.

I finally got the kitchen garbage out — I don’t think I’ve taken it out since I got back from November trip. With recycling and composting there really isn’t that many wrappers. But so much paper trash. That crate is getting full. πŸ”₯ As they no longer have free paper recycling, ♻️ I am going to have to go up to the woods and turn it into CO2 with the rest of my burnables. At some point I’ll have to take the cans πŸ₯« to the transfer station, but probably not until later in the winter, when I can also recycle the accumulated plastic bottles.
