June 3, 2016 Night

Good evening. 69 degrees and mostly cloudy. A nice evening, the spring peepers are out singing their songs. Wouldn’t have been a bad night to be out camping. I saw fireflies for the first time in the newly cut hay field when I went for my evening walk. Definitely a nice evening for sure.

May 25, 2016 Night

Good evening. 67 degrees at the 11 o’clock hour. Mostly clear. Dew point is at 53, so not too sticky. Went down to the park for a while. Then to Walmart to pick up some cold cuts for lunch tomorrow, along with a headphone wire extension, so I can finish wiring up the PA speaker in my truck. The speaker seems pretty loud and fits perfectly behind the front bumper, above the skid plate.

I still got a lot of packing tomorrow. I also need to buy some groceries. But it should be a nice weekend. I am still considering whether to leave from work or take the bus home then get my truck. I’m a bit worried about leaving the truck out in the heat in the city and having the ice melt in the cooler or even worse, the propane leaking out of the escape valve and making everything stinky and a mess. The other concern I have is getting up to Kelly Stand Road early enough to get a decent campsite.

May 11, 2016 Night

Sitting out back right now looking up at the moon and stars above. In the hour or so past dusk the temperature has dropped a bit, we are now down to 58 degrees. Still a quite pleasant evening. I hear deer crashing through the woods where the marshy, partially piped under Phillipin Kill runs. Not quite the wilderness but still some solitude out back.

I went down to the park for a while this evening after the town board meeting. Nice evening down at the park. The passed a resolution condemning the Pilgrim Pipeline and I had no problem speaking against that. I had no idea why I was invited to the meeting by my friend, but it was worthwhile. Passing a strong anti-Piligrim pipelines law with a lot of public support sends a message. A lot of municipalities have been voicing their opposition to this pipeline.

While I watched the PBS Newshour tonight, I on put together some more Google Maps. Tomorrow I’ll start featuring them. I made maps of farm wineries, median income of Pennsylvania, and one of income by block group in Clinton County. Should be real interesting to look at during the coming week. A week from Friday the local April unemployment numbers come out and they’ll be fun to map too.

Well have a great evening. Sleep well.
