Dug out my truck and cleaned off the solar panel. Both the starting battery and accessory battery banks are a bit low from cold and being parked since Sunday — 12.3-12.4 on the meters but I’m not concerned now that the panel is cleaned off and we should be getting a lot of sun to go along with the cold weather. Sun angle is getting stronger each day. Still planning on getting to the store tomorrow and to run down to the library to get the necessary files I need for various projects.

Out walking this morning, I was thinking how much I miss going to the farmers market on the plaza on Wednesdays
Out walking this morning, I was thinking how much I miss going to the farmers market on the plaza on Wednesdays. That and on cold, wintery days like this, doing walks around the Empire State Plaza, Capitol and Agency Buildings. Over the years, I’ve learned all the secret, little known tunnels that make it nice for walking indoors on cold, snowy days like today.
