As we head through the ten o’clock hour, we are at 45 degrees and mostly cloudy. You can see the stars in parts with dark clouds hanging over other locations. 50% chance of showers tonight, low around 38 degrees. Fairly mild. Sunrise is at 6:23 am, in about 7 1/2 hours. First light at 5:54 AM.

Went out grocery shopping tonight. Just a few supplies until the weekend. Also ended up buying some supplies for fixing the wires in the truck cap, including conduit and wire ties. Going to clean out the truck this weekend and get things ready for summer camping.

Ended up looking at LED light bulbs. They now have 40 watt equivalent bulbs that only use 5 watts. They are like $3. I use that bulb size to light my flag while truck cap camping, and this would further reduce the load on the inverter. Didn’t buy yet but will get before my next time camping. Also bought an inexpensive red LED light bulb, so I can put it on while sitting in bed watching the PBS Newshour to make it easier to fall asleep. They really suggest that the blue light from screens can disrupt sleep. The truck toy aisle at Walmart has so many different LED strips and switches now.

Also went down to the library and downloaded a bunch more data for making maps. I discovered that there is some pretty fascinating education data on out there to play with among other things. It’s something I’m going to play with further.

I’m pretty tired. But the good news is tomorrow is Friday. Sleep well.
