Good evening! Mostly clear and 44 degrees in Delmar. There is a west-northwest breeze at 9 mph. 🍃. I went for my evening walk, it was pretty cool.

After my evening walk I sat back and watched a movie or two, that I had downloaded from the YouTube. 🎥 I was was watching more of Shaun James My Self Reliance channel and then something about agriculture that I already forgot about.

In all the long weekend was a bust but I was glad to get away from the city for a bit to spend a few days in the Adirondacks. 🗻 The summer is not yet over, so there is still a chance for some adventures. This year I’m thinking of trying some different things and go new places as change prolongs time. Doing the same thing over and over again caches things ⌚ making things go by quickly. I’m not ready for Winter 2019-20 yet. ⏳ Summer should drag on for a bit.

My aunt is coming up from Arizona, ✈ so I’m going to stick in town this weekend. It’s rather unfortunate we couldn’t have had this forecast the previous week. Maybe the following weekend I’ll head back to the wilderness. But before you know it, black fly season will be upon us.

I started looking at fixing up my bicycle 🚲. Bikes are really a fast and easy way to get around the city. Certainly much better than motoring. Buses are great but bikes go many places buses don’t go. The big thing I need for my bike is a new rear wheel with tougher spokes. Always seem to break spokes on it. I also need to fix some parts on the derailer too. I’m sure it can be done, I really need to get a good manual then get on ebay or Amazon for parts. Certainly having a good bike is key 🔑 if I’m thinking of going carless for a few years after I get rid of Big Red sometime in the early to mid 2020s. I’m really tired of fossil fuel motoring and all the fees and costs surrounding motoring. Not to mention the many worries. Bicycling would be so much better for my health and so many of my friends and colleagues now are going motor free.

Another bad weather day. ☁ No rain just a lot of clouds. Maybe more rain later on. Riding the exercise bike for a while and I should probably get some milk at the store before the rain returns. 🐮 That way I can have some ☕. Then after breakfast I will take a shower 🚿, get cleaned up and go to the store to buy a few things for the week. I never got my jacket to the dry cleaner. Maybe this week. Or maybe I should just use the dry cleaner at the Plaza as then I wouldn’t have to drive there.
