Good morning! Monday’s come back around again. Monday meetings, plans, and work. Fun shit. At least I don’t preg test cows for living. And we are getting through the year. I had some Christmas music 🎄 come on my radio and actually listened to it for a while. Next Monday is Average High is 55 🍂. Fog, mist and 42 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌁 Calm wind.

It’s less than two weeks until November. 🎃 A week from Friday. That said November is my favorite month of the year, especially if the snow ⛄ and the cold hold off as they often they do this time of year. I’ve had many adventures in the last month before it gets very snowy and cold in December.

Come November I’ll need to get Big Red inspected. 🚙 I’ll probably just drop it off at the dealership and pick it up after work. That’s the easiest option.

Using my regular headphones with my phone 🎧 which only the right channel works on them because the jack is broken as it has been for two years now. 📱 I need to consider getting a new phone at some point as the charging port has been dying on the phone for some time and it doesn’t fhwrr well always. Plus I’m always low on memory. The Straight Talk phones 📞 I use are like $50 so it’s not that big of an investment.

Today will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 62 degrees at 3pm. Four degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around October 11th. Maximum dew point of 48 at 4pm.

The latest weekend forecast looks nice but a bit cool even for late October. 😎 I should think about heading out of town. Saturday, partly sunny, with a high near 52. Sunday, mostly sunny, with a high near 53. Typical average high for the weekend is 56 degrees.

I have to look at my time bank 🕒 but I might take a long weekend. I am considering heading out to Stoney Pond in Nelson and maybe hunting and camping there. ⛺ I could also go up Pisceo-Powley Road or somewhere else. Still weighting my options the week is young.

As previously noted, there are 3 weeks until Veterans Day 🇺🇸 when the sun will be setting at 4:37 pm with dusk at 5:07 pm (Standard Time).
