While I was a bit disappointed that the ear buds were not in stock 🎧

It was a nice morning to ride down to Hannaford and sit down by the Norman’s Kill for a while. Landlord was back today working on the unit next door, I headed out when I heard he was going to have to get the jack hammer out again. 🚧 . I don’t know how he plans to make money on the building when all he does it rip things out and work on it. πŸ’΅ Really scares me about buying an old house what unpleasant surprises there would be. 😳 But newer houses are so expensive and rarely come with much land. Got to keep looking on Zillow 🏑 and Lands and Farms. 🌽 And taking the back roads eyes πŸ‘€ wide open.

More clouds are pushing in now but the woods has that late summer green to it and when the sun comes out I’m reminded of the sparkle of the woods while high. β˜€ When I first got to the Holt Preserve a lot of people were hiking but as midday approached the crowds thinned out. πŸ‘ͺ Reading πŸ“– more of that book about Unix programming πŸ€“ as I have a lot to read before the e-books are automatically returned. Also reading a book about salvaging old building parts in building a house 🏑
