February 20, 2020 Night
Good evening! Partly clear and 19 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a northwest breeze at 10 mph. 🍃. The current wind chill is 7. There is a dusting of snow on the ground. Cold night for sure with the breeze, bitterly cold earlier waiting for the bus. 🚍 Things will start to thaw out at Saturday around 10 am. 🌡οΈ
OH my GOSH, that old Yippie book 📙 hi was loaned by a friend is hilarious. 😂 Maybe not all of the content is politically correct and it’s not certainly not neutral in its views but certainly a people’s history of the 1960s through the 1970s. Some of the pages are probably too obscene to share but what do I care, it’s historical media at this point. 👴 All the people in it are very gray nowadays and the statue of limitations long past and I doubt it’s copyright. 🐽 I’m going to share more pictures tomorrow.
Rode the exercise bike 🚲 for a about an hour, caught up on YouTube. Prepper type channels tonight. While I don’t hoard supplies I do like learning more bushcraft and off grid stuff and to be more thoughtful 💭 about the risks in life. Then spend a few hours thumbing 👍 through that book about the Yippies.
