Good evening! Light drizzle with some flashes of lighting and 75 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁ Calm wind. The dew point is 69 degrees. Kind of a muggy summer night, first one of the year. Too hot to go inside but eventually I should make it into bed and hook up a fan as I’m tired. The skies will clear tomorrow around 11 am.
I find it hard to believe that it is already June and a muggy summer night with thunderstorms to boot. ⚡June has some of the latest sunsets of the year and can have some really pleasant weather. It is dairy month 🐮 and pride month 🏳️🌈 to boot. I’m a big milk drinker and I know how tirelessly farmers work to take care of their land and their livestock. Gay pride month is important too, as we should have an inclusive and respectful society no matter where you come from.
I went down to the park for a while with a book. 📙Nice evening again but I found even more ticks crawling on me. 🐜 I like sitting on the hill in the grass, with a book, watching traffic but ticks with Lyme disease are so bad. I think I need to either start bringing a blanket or sitting on the park bench. I don’t know.
I’m enjoying sitting out back, although on and off rain drops have been falling. 💦First time I’ve used that twelve volt fan this year. Battery is well charged despite sitting out back with the lights on all week due to the solar panel.
Tomorrow is the Lupine Festival but I’m not going this year because I overlooked the date, never got the Save the Pine Bush booth together, and lack the necessary paperwork. I thought the event was next week, I messed up. 🌲Next year I’ll have things together, I won’t be so dang busy with work.
It’s just been an awful week at work. 💼 So many things going on, and just had to deal with some really difficult issues. I think I handled things professionally but it was just physically exhausting. 💤 Been staying up much to late with the late sunsets and being so pleasant out back. Next week may be longer but I’m hoping the issue in front of me won’t be so taxing.
I am chewing over the trail workday at Keleher Preserve at 8:30 tomorrow but that’s so early. I kind of want to sleep in. Also need to find the time to get a haircut tomorrow. ✂More like the big snip for me as my hair has gotten raggy.
Maybe I’ll go hiking on Sunday the weather looks quite nice. Still chewing over where. 🏃Also thinking about taking off next Friday to take a long weekend for camping although next weekend like the whole first half of June in the weather outlook looks to be cool. Weather more like early autumn than June.
I have a board I built that is malfunctioning due to a solder bridge, but I’m struggling to find it. 🔬Going to test and resolder it this weekend. I think I know what the problem is but the ohm meter should give proof. I just got to set down and play with it.
