Good Morning! Happy Wednesday. Hump Day comes back around on the calendar. Going to be a real hot one, with temperatures expected to reach or exceed 90 degrees and with the humidity that Albany in the summer is famous for having.

Didn’t sleep all that well last night. I don’t know if it was the weather or because I didn’t get out for the evening walk last night, because I was lazy and it was hot. I honestly didn’t think yesterday was that oppressive, especially with the stiff breeze last night. I haven’t been doing the evening walk as much lately, as I don’t have a working radio or mp3 player, so I don’t have the tunes to listen to. I probably should just go to Walmart and pick up something – I’ve just not had very good luck with Mp3 players, and I am not really crazy about whats on the radio these days.

Drove past Loucks last night. My truck wasn’t out front yet, but it’s been moved to the front bay. I am somewhat hopeful I will get my truck home today. If the insurance or shop calls, I probably will catch a bus home, then run to Louck’s to sign over the insurance check then back to the city to return the loaner truck. Then bring home Big Red home either this evening or in the morning. I would like to give things a good couple of drives at speed and rougher roads, to avoid problems from the accident further down the road in wilderness areas that the shop might not have caught.

The weekend forecast looks decent, but we might see thunderstorms on Sunday. At any rate, the heat is mostly expected be gone by Thursday. Still hoping to have my truck back today or tomorrow, and if so, to spend a nice weekend in the Adirondacks – maybe coming back on Monday. We will see how things go forward in the next couple of weeks.
