Parallel Parking in Small Towns
Parallel parking in small towns rocks. They still mark the spaces for land-yachts and big pickup trucks.
The marked spots in small towns can take a full-size pickup truck, and still have 2-3 feet between the bumper lines plus 2-3 feet between the driver’s door and the outside of marked parking spot.
In comparison, when I drive Big Red Downtown in Albany in one of the marked spots, the bumper hangs over both bumper lines, and the driver side usually hangs out along the white outer line.

Weather Update – September 28, 2021
Maybe I over estimated the risk of rain today. ☔
But I guess it’s better to be prepared then get flat footed in a rain storm. The colors are just starting in Delmar, despite the clouds it’s a pretty nice morning. 🌅 But who knows, it seems like there is such a risk of rain.
I will probably hold off from the laundromat until Wednesday, 👕 as I found another pair of clean jeans at home, so I should be good for at least one more day. I’ll go grocery shopping then too. I hate how early it gets dark out, but I don’t mind evenings spent home with a book. Watch as a big project comes in Hump Day, and I have to work late. Maybe I can do it remotely from my truck should that happen.
My bluetooth headphones broke 🎧 when I was at Thacher Park, and I do need to get new headphones, although the wired ones seem to be working well for now and don’t need to be charged. That said, I stopped using the wired ones except with my laptop, and they work well for that. The $10 Wally World specials are fine, but they need to be thrown away and replaced every so often. 🗑 Hot fire, they’ll be gone. LOL!
I am thinking about a long-weekend up to Spectulator-area, 🗼 as I would like to hike Pillsbury Mountain before the autumn colors are fully gone from the Adirondacks. 🍂 Plus I was good and on my best behavior this past week, and I stayed in town and painted Big Red. Winter is coming, and who knows how nice Columbus Day Weekend really will be.
