But maybe not my breakfast. I decided to try baking apple bread, but I didn’t use enough salt and maybe oil and I ended up with a carb loaded mess that tasted like crap. Dipping in it maple syrup and salt helped but I still ended up cooking complete junk. It happens when you experiment, at least it’s whole wheat.

Good morning! Partly cloudy and 51 degrees in Delmar, NY. ⛅ There is a southwest breeze at 7 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 44 degrees. The skies will clear around 10 am.

So yeah, breakfast was kind of a mess with the loaf I decided to cook. 🍞 Sometimes you just got to experiment I guess. Maybe it would have been better if I added some olive oil, stevia or salt. All those apples I thought would give it enough sweetness I really made a mistake leaving out all salt from the mix. 🤮 Kind of like dinner — I decided to make brown rice with chicken, with soy sauce but that meal needed some sugar to sweeten it up and MSG to tickle the uamani side of things. 🍚 I’m so used to cooking with loads of spices that when I first tasted that rice with no spices I was shocked how bland it was. And to think 🤔 that’s how I started my healthy eating journey.

Today will have isolated showers after 10am. Partly sunny 🌦, with a high of 59 degrees at 2pm. Six degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around October 22nd. Southwest wind 7 to 14 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. A year ago, we had partly cloudy skies in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 54 degrees. The record high of 80 was set in 2017.

Not sure what today’s plans are going to look like. ⛺ Seems like it would be nice enough to camp but cold. I wonder how many campsites would be taken at this point during the holiday weekend though yesterday would have been a complete soaker for camping. ☔ I’m thinking about going to the Green Mountains ⛰ though that’s an awful long trip for one night 🌃 that might be super cold. 🌬️ The forecast has improved but it’s going to be still quite windy and cold. But then again it’s Columbus Day Weekend. ⛵ That said, who knows how much longer there will be much color after the heavy rain and now the wind.

Solar noon 🌞 is at 12:44 pm with sun having an altitude of 41.6° from the due south horizon (-29.2° vs. V6/21). A six foot person will cast a 6.8 footl shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer. The golden hour 🏅 starts at 5:49 pm with the sun in the west-southwest (256°). 📸 The sunset is in the west (263°) with the sun dropping below the horizon at 6:27 pm after setting for 2 minutes and 56 seconds with dusk around 6:53 pm, which is one minute and 42 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌇 The best time to look at the stars is after 7:28 pm. At sunset, look for rain 🌧 and temperatures around 56 degrees. There will be a southwest breeze at 10 mph. Today will have 11 hours and 27 minutes of daytime, a decrease of 2 minutes and 50 seconds over yesterday.

Got the new bike 🚲 light 🔦 installed on my bicycle yesterday and it’s quite bright 🔆 from my initial before dawn testing this morning. I’m hoping if I get out today to camp I can do some night riding and see how great it really is. I love how it has USB charging built in and I can just plug in both the front and back lights for a charge while I’m home or at camp. No need to worry about batteries. 🔋

Tonight will be partly cloudy 🌃 , with a low of 40 degrees at 6am. Three degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around October 18th. South wind 7 to 9 mph. In 2022, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became partly cloudy by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 36 degrees. The record low of 27 occurred back in 2001.

Might be a decent night 🌃 for camping 🏕. As who knows about next week. I keep refreshing the forecast for Thomas WV and aren’t really sure what to think 🤔 about it. Still looks very cold and wet in the long range but things could change for sure.
