Paid my $99 for the truck registration. 🚘 I am really tired 😴 of all the costs of motoring, so I’m increasingly thinking about getting rid of having a car come next year. I think bicycling 🚴 would be so much healthier if I can figure what is a reliable bike. I also have to get my inspection done next month.

I am thinking about now Voting on Election Day 🗳 or at least dropping off my absentee ballot there. It turns out that this year my polling place is right next door to my bus stop 🚍 and I usually end up going downtown on Tuesdays so that might be the best option for me.

I have two online meetings today 📹 that I’ll do down at the library, making sure my laptops are charging 🔋 now as I doubt 🤷‍♂️ there will be much solar power. Not sure if we are going to get rain in Delmar, but who knows. It’s probably better to be home then in woods.

I am starting to think 🤔 I took the wrong weekend to go to Central New York but I don’t know. It was a good weekend to go out and enjoy the colors while they are still left 🍂, they are rapidly fading now as we head closer to November. I don’t have any plans now until mid November and with more days being back in the office 🏢 and less remote work 💻, it gets harder to take long weekends – plus I’m running low on vacation time. ⏳

Good morning! Monday’s come back around again. Monday, Monday. And not a pay week this week. 💸At least it’s not California Dreaming although these days it seems like North Idaho dreaming would be the song on the radio. Too popular and expensive for my taste now. Next Monday is Columbus Day ⛵ 🍂 . Usually the best for autumn color although this year will likely be past peak. Foggy 🌁 and cloudy ☁️ and 44 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind.The skies will clear around 2 pm.

The high last year was 59 degrees. The record high of 91 was set in 1941. Should be a nice day for the start of the second week of October.

Kind of slept in today 🛏 being a gray start to the morning with the fog and clouds. 🌫 I had blueberry pancakes 🥞 again and lots of coffee ☕. I didn’t quite get a chance to go for my walk 🚶🏻 but hopefully the evening can be good for that.

A picture perfect Columbus Day ⛵ 🍂 Weekend on tap. 😎 Saturday, sunny, with a high near 69. Maximum dew point of 51 at 3pm. Sunday, mostly sunny, with a high near 67. Maximum dew point of 52 at 11am. Typical average high for the weekend is 62 degrees. That said, because it’s been a relatively cool late September this year the leaves may be past peak in many locations.

While I’m not totally decided, I’m leaning towards staying in town for Columbus Day Weekend. ⛵🍂 That doesn’t mean day hikes 🚶🏻 or even some hunting but I don’t want to go to a crowded campground in Madison County when I can go a week later and see no one. If I didn’t need cell service 📶 I would have more options but I’m not really interested in going to either the Green Mountains or Spectulator again. I’ve also only really budgeted for one trip this month.
