I went for my evening walk 🌃. They had a game wrapping up at the high school 🚸 so the lights were still on at the field. Bought milk and ice cream 🍦 at the store, the $2.99 Stewart’s sale is ongoing. I rarely eat ice cream anymore but a sweet is good for a change. They are really aggressively promoting their ice cream sale this time.

I rode the exercise bike for a while 🚲 then worked on some code for the VMS which got slowed down debugging a buffer overflow. I’ve continued playing with the new GIMP which I like a lot. Also been playing with some energy data. I should do some reading 📖 but I really prefer to do that at the park.

I am glad it’s no longer a session day, 👔although I guess l things considered it hasn’t been a terrible week. I wish it would be sunnier and nicer but beggers can’t be choosers. Not ninty degrees today but at least in the seventhies. My windows are open again. ⬛ This weekend I should probably wipe the kitchen and bathroom 🚽 down with bleach so no mildew pops up with the wet.

I added a low and high temperature function to the VMS sign I built at home. 📟 The next step is wire up and mount the outside temperature probe so I can monitor outside temperatures. Maybe this weekend.

Also, seven weeks until summer. 🌞I’m looking forward to it although spring has plenty to offer in the wilderness. I still want to get to Moss Island during the spring months. I didn’t get my turkey tag this year as I never get enough time in the woods but I can certainly camp and fish 🐠 during the spring time. Nights are getting pretty late at this point but the black flies are certain to be bad soon. 🐜 DEET works fairly good, I have bottles and bottles of it. Even so, black flies aren’t bad at night as they dissappear then and they aren’t too bad if you keep moving during the day.
