Good evening! Mostly clear and 67 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a west-northwest breeze at 9 mph. . The dew point is 56 degrees. Pleasant evening after a hot day.
I had a nice evening walk and I sat out back for a while with a cold glass of water. Sure I’d like something sweeter but it’s what I had. I’ve been drinking too much fruit juice lately – be it apple or orange juice but it’s probably better than eating candy or drinking beer .
Did a lot of wash today as it’s been two weeks since I’ve been to the laundromat. But it’s good, I was running low on clothes especially boxers. I should order some more online the next time I need supplies at Walmart. I’m not going to the store anymore as they’re not stocking anything but food anymore. I also didn’t go grocery shopping today but between frozen foods in the freezer and the milk I got this morning I’m doing good. I think I’m going to go back to buying just one gallon at a time now – it seems like the pandemic is winding down a bit and often I’m pushing the expiration date on the milk if I buy two gallons at a time. I’d rather have it fresher.
I can belabor coming back home after work yesterday but I was getting tired of camping and I was out of food and ice – and my clothing supplies were low and I was dirty after not showering for seven days. The Adirondacks are not going away and I might even take a legitimate vacation after primary day going into the forth of July holiday. Truth be told, when you’re working in the Adirondacks it’s sort of like working at home, you’re still quite busy. It looks like next Thursday the Capital Region will be in Phase 3 at which point the buses will restart and it will be back to work downtown. And even if that isn’t the case I’ll probably want to stick close to town with the big primary day coming just to be extra safe if there are late night ahead for work.

I spent five nights camping up at Mason Lake then Perkins Clearing during the Memorial Day Weekend, using my phone and the Speculator Library for Internet. It was fun to get away for one of several long weekends during the 2020 Coronavirus Panademic when all work was remote work.
Well besides the fact that it’s so much in the news lately it’s just a fascinating topic for those of us interested in statistics and data. We live in an era when so much data is available and its easy to process with the powerful computers and technologies widely available for free.
Honestly while most of Upstate NY has been lightly touched by the wave of death and sickness around the disease it has had dramatic impacts on all aspects of life. While I’ve been relatively lightly impacted and in some ways benefited by the disease, truth be told it’s all encompassing it’s hard to get away from the ways it’s changing society.
I plan to continue being an avid reader about all things about the disease and looking a statistical data and presenting it on the blog so both you and I can share get a better idea on how it’s impacting our lives together.
But now, COVID-19 has circled the globe and is sweeping rapidly through tropical regions, and billions of people remain susceptible to the virus. It's likely the disease will be here with us year-round and for years to come, says Albert Ko, an epidemiologist at Yale and co-chair of the Reopen Connecticut Advisory Group.
New York is filled with many great bridges, but few are more interesting or historic than Roebling’s Delaware Aqueduct.
Roebling’s Delaware Aqueduct, or simply the Roebling Bridge, was completed in 1848 and spans 535 feet over the Delaware River. It was built to connect two parts of the Delaware and Hudson Canal. As part of the canal, the aqueduct was filled with water and carried canal boats over the river.
