Happy Weekend! Partly clear and 61 degrees in Delmar, NY. ⛅ There is a east breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 47 degrees. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Sunday around midnight. ☃️

I think I will have a quick dinner then grab a book and head down to the park.🔰📖 Enough light now in the evening and warm enough to enjoy the park.🌲 Definitely a nice evening. Walking down to the old train station from work was pleasant and the bus was right about on time. 🚌 There is some delays due to a lane closure and crash on the old 787 expressway but the driver navigated right through it. Some kid put the roof of his car through the corner of a semi truck hauling rebar. I’m glad that I don’t ever have to drive during rush hour. Well except when I’m heading up to camp.

The sun will set at 7:35 pm with dusk around 8:04 pm, which is one minute and 9 seconds later than yesterday. 🌇 At sunset, look for partly cloudy skies ⛅ and 61 degrees. The dew point will be 46 degrees. There will be a north-northeast breeze at 5 mph. Maybe after I get home from the park I’ll have a drink or two on the tailgate of my truck 🍺but not too much as I have to work tomorrow.

Renewed my fishing license today. Every time I visit the DEC world headquarters they have a different procedure for getting to the license bureau desk🎣Sometimes they make you sign on at front desk sometimes not. I think it’s stupid to make you sign up because the license bureau window is right up front. At least I can walk there from work and while the DEC is slow as all shit to sell you a license, they always have the computer up and running, 🔖have enough tape to print the license, and there is never a line.

I got my unclaimed funds deposited into my account today. 💰As I was noting the other day it’s great that can now get your unclaimed funds without a notary, and just filling out the application online. Of course I’ll pay back all that money and then some when I pay my state taxes next week. 😕

This weekend I plan to build my second clock / VMS module for my apartment. I’m going to include the memory chip so that I have even more space for storimg random phrases and strings on it. 💻I decided on a simpler data structure which should make it easier to program too. Hope to have it up and running by the end of the weekend.
