The latest weekend forecast looks rather stormy and cold 💨so I’m not sure if I’m going to make any plans. I heard they might even get some snow up north. ❄ I was kind of hoping for an early spring. That said I could see hiking down by the Hudson River, maybe doing some fishing 🎣 and getting groceries at Aldi’s. I was realizing how much more you spend for lower quality food at Hannaford compared to Aldi – and heck they don’t even have people that check out your grocery at Hannaford unless you waiting in line for a while. 🍏

Thirty weeks until the presidential election.☑ Have you decided who you are going to vote for yet? I haven’t, I can see pros and cons to each candidate. I think certainly Biden would be better from a perspective on climate change, urban policy, criminal justice, and economic issues. 🏫Trump is better on the second amendment and limiting the size and scope of government. Then there are the options with the third parties.💭 Lots of options to consider going forward.

Looking ahead, Cinco de Mayo 🤠 is in 4 weeks, Flower Moon 🌕 is a month away, Strawberry Moon 🌕 is in 2 months, Primary Day 🗳️ is in 11 weeks, and Election Day 2020 🗳️ is in 30 weeks.

🇺🇸🦅Only 44 days remain until the start of Memorial Day Weekend!🦅🇺🇸
