Good morning! Happy Tuesday. 🚍

A few rain drops here and there and 57 degrees at the Elm Avenue Park and Ride. ☔ Calm wind. The dew point is 55 degrees. The skies will clear tomorrow around 6 pm.

I was worried that the bus would be really late ⌚ because I saw the the 7:55 bus pull away around 8:15 as I was heading down to the park and ride but things were on time. I increased the automatic refill of my bus card 💳 to $20 because I’m riding the bus more now and listening to the refill alerts is obnoxious.

Didn’t rain much while I was walking down the street to the bus 🚍 but it picked up going downtown. Apparently one of the state workers buses broke down, so we stopped by there on the way downtown. Maybe that’s why things were running late for the earlier bus. Not sure but we’re making good progress downtown now.

It’s good with the rain though, 🌧 I might get off at the Concourse and walk to the office in the tunnel, as I am afraid it’s going to be too wet to walk on the plaza.

I am continuing to look at tires for Big Red, ⚫ it’s honestly not the option I necessarily want to choose but I just need to face it because it needs to get done if I want to go on vacation and get on with life. They are doing the alignment on my truck next week, so the next step is the tires. The easy option is to just order them through Mavis Tire, which I can schedule online for the BFGs. The alternative is the off-road shop, although based on their quote for the Nitto Terra Gabblers, I am leaning against them. I also looked at Tire Rack — they can ship them to an installer, but then I have to make the appointment with the installer. I could live with the price of the BFGs. I just want to make up my mind now, as I want to ensure I can get the appointment two weeks out, so I can leave the following week for West Virginia.
