Good evening! Clear and 40 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Wednesday around midnight. βοΈ
Not a terribly cold evening π but a bit chilly for mid to late April. Lots of stars β¨ out b ack but alas after a while it felt cool. Went for my evening walk πΆ which was pretty quiet. Tuna fish π salad that I made up for dinner in a wrap. π₯
Ended up going to Five Rivers Environmental Education Center this afternoon πΈ because it was a beautiful afternoon although a bit chilly for most of the day. The Wi-Fi is much quicker than the mobile card on my work laptop and more reliable as it kept dropping out today. πΆ Despite living in the suburbs sometimes my phone service π± is funky here. Probably too many people using too little data with everyone home during Coronavirus. But also working on the free wifi meant that I didn’t have to careful watch my bandwidth and I could have personal social media and my blog up while I worked, upload photos π· and download videos for later watching.

Doesn’t seem really nice tomorrow. πΏ I am however thinking about going to the car wash to clean off Big Red which has some salt on him and it’s been a while since he’s been washed. π I checked and the car wash is still open as an Essential Business. There are a few things that I need that I should pick up at Walmart while I’m out but I’m thinking I should wait until I have a full list π as every time you go out in public you risk getting Coronavirus. And that shit is real, and can make folks my age get really sick and not city folk alone. π
