Worked on some various projects around my apartment and went down to the library for a while. 📚 Had dinner, went shopping. A cold day for sure.

I went grocery shopping this evening, hoping to avoid the crowds in the morning. 🍒🍛🍳 This way I can get an earlier start in the morning if it’s not too cold. Also gassed up the truck so I should be good for the weekend. Cumberland Farms was closed when I went there with no power. Looked like their may have been an accident with a semi truck hitting the gas station canopy but it was hard to tell in the dark.

Fixed a buffer overflow on my GPS Logger 🌐and it’s temporarily mounted in my truck. Still fixing some minor bugs in the code but it works well. Added two additional LEDS to the board to show when the card reader isn’t working, when I don’t have a GPS signal and when everything is all hunky dory…. Red, yellow and green leds. You can guess which one is associated with each feature. Blinks for critical faults. Well hidden in my truck but records quite accurately, although sometimes the elevation is messed up. I don’t think GPS elevation is ever all that accurate although I think there is a way to check how accurate the fix is for elevation independent of location. Location and speed recording is very good, especially when you are moving. It’s on switched power so each time the truck starts, a new log is created.

In four weeks on April 14 the sun will be setting at 7:36 pm,🌄 which is 32 minutes and 3 seconds later then tonight.
