Snow Depth – Friday March 26

While there is some snow in the Western Adirondacks and the higher elevation locations of the Green Mountains, last night’s heavy rain did a number on the snow in most of eastern Adirondacks and Hudson Valley.

I saw they cut my auto-refill discount for my phone plan by $4, raising my phone by from $60 to $64 with the 20-gb hotspot plan. Just another cost on the budget — but with remote work and the library closed it’s kind of important to have Internet at home. That kind of sucks, but I guess everything is going up in price. May 1st my rent is going up too, and I just adjusted my bank to reflect the additional $25 a month. Car insurance is due on Monday. At least I should be getting a good tax-refund and the stimulus check this month, and I think I will be able to otherwise stay the course on my budget and savings. Once office life resumes, I can go back to the more basic data package, that will save money, to offset the cost of bus fares for commuting.

Hobbs Magaret is a regenerative cattle rancher in Central Oregon. Raised on the ranches of the Texas Panhandle and further educated at The University of Oregon, he has experienced two extremes of the contemporary American Experiment. Hobbs, his wife, and his daughter live in Sisters, Oregon, where they use regenerative and fossil fuel averse techniques to rehabilitate degraded ag land and sell beef directly to regional consumers. Visit his website at SistersCattleco.com and checkout his interesting videos at TikTok. The KunstlerCast theme music is the beautiful Two Rivers Waltz written and performed by Larry Unger.

While I certainly thought James Howard Kunstler’s analysis of the election that was is kind of assine, the man is kind of critic our world needs as we plunge into the climate crisis while the politicians debate assine things as people keep dying from the COVID.
