Donald John Trump signs

While I’m no fan of Donald Trump, I have to admire the homemade roadside signs and displays you see in favor of his candidacy along rural road sides.

There is something neat about home painted signs or even displays like that of a model Donald Trump riding a snowmobile in North Brookfield, NY or riding a fake missile in Bald Eagle, Penna. It’s just piles of junk bolted together but it shows creativity and passion, far more than just store bought political sign placed on a lawn briefly before chucked in a burn barrel or sent to the landfill.

Clinical trials underway on pill to treat COVID-19 – pennlive.com

Clinical trials underway on pill to treat COVID-19 – pennlive.com

Clinical trials that are part of an international effort to test an antiviral treatment aimed at halting COVID-19 early in its course, are currently underway.

According to a report by NBC News, researchers are testing a “short-term regimen of daily pills” that when begun shortly after diagnosis can fight the virus early and possibly prevent symptoms from developing after exposure.

Timothy Sheahan, a virologist at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill who has helped pioneer the therapies, explained that in addition to curtailing the duration of one’s COVID-19 syndrome “oral antivirals have the potential to limit transmission to people in your household if you are sick.”

Weather Update – September 24, 2021

Made it a Friday, but the weather ain’t great. 🌧

But look at those dew points. They are the definition of pleasant weather feeling, and none of the temperatures are particularly cold or requiring one to close up the windows.

Maybe if it clears out later, I’ll walk down to the library and sit out there for a while, πŸ‘¨‍πŸ’» but my laptop battery is still kind of bad, so I’m limited in time. but should be a nice autumn evening, even though the sun sets much too early this time of year.

Tomorrow I think I’ll go out to Thacher Park on the last nature bus of the year, 🚌 and tomorrow I wan to wash my truck, sand and paint over some of the rust spots on my truck. It wouldn’t be a bad weekend to head out of town, but definitely autumn like up north, and I’ve been heading out of town too much lately, so I should stay in town this weekend. Future weeks, I’ll take it day by day.

By then we will be down to 12 hours of daylight each day, and many days next week will only be in the 60s but that’s to be expected as next Friday is October. πŸŽƒ Winter is coming, as much as we might be in denial about such things.

With the shorter days, I am starting to wonder when I am going to find time to do my morning walk, 🚢‍♀️ as it’s starting to get darker each morning for the walk, and before you know it will be quite dark each morning.
