Got to Get a Tire Plugged Tomorrow. Cold Weather is Delightful. Gets Dark Too Early.
Good Afternoon. Happy Friday. As they say the weekend has come back around on the calender once again. It’s a stay in town weekend — I actually need to take one of my tires on my truck to get patched, as I managed to run over a nail or screw somewhere along the way. It looks very pluggable. So it happens. I might also get the tires rotated, as it’s been a bit over the recommended 7,500 miles for the tire rotation.
It would be nice to have some tread life on the tires, when I take them off next spring, in favor of the wider and taller 35″ inch tires that will go with the lift kit.
It Gets Dark Early Out. I get home from work by around 5:45 PM. It takes like a half hour or longer to cook and eat dinner, and get cleaned up. Last night, by the time I was done, it was 7 PM, and while I did go for a walk down to the park, I didn’t even bother to bring a book, as it was basically dark by the time I got down there around 7:30 PM. I then went for a walk along the fitness trail, that winds through the woods, along the Phillipin Kill. I was dark and shadowy by then, but still nice.
Cool Weather of Late Has Been Nice. I don’t have air conditioning at home, and it sure was nice to leave the windows open, and let all that 40-50 degree cold air flow, and chill the apartment down after a long summer. It was a bit chilly in the morning, pulling back the covers, but it sure felt nice.
No Trips Planned for the Weekend. Actually, that’s not totally true. Once I get the tire plugged, I am thinking of going for a walk down at Schodack Island State Park. And on Sunday, if the weather is good, I may go to Bennett Hill or Thacher Park. Trying to keep the mileage budget down this weekend, to pay for the repair of the tire.
Going to Try to Do More Blog Posts. Lately I’ve kind of gotten away from blogging. I’ve been doing more photos and maps, and to a lesser extent, screwing around with the internals of WordPress. But moving forward, especially if we have less nice weather, I want to start to doing more blog posts, articles, and campsite reviews.
