Weather Update – August 16, 2021
Today should be a beautiful day but rain later in the week. ☔
Working downtown today. 🏢 This is fine, I have a Zoom Meeting 📹 and I would rather do that in the office so I don’t have to watch the bandwidth meter or work down at the library, outdoors or in the truck due to the mask mandate. 📶 Working remote on Thursday and Friday, which look rather rainy.
Today I got look at ordering a replacement phone 📱 for mine with the smashed screen so I can hopefully get the $20 deal on a refurbished phone if I buy a month of service. I also need to get to the laundromat 👕👖 and get some groceries 🍏 🥩. I did stop at Wally World in Gloversville last night but it was late and only got the essentials like coffee. ☕ I do need to get razors 🙄 as shaving with a dull razor my face is a mess.
I should think about getting the oil changed 🛢 and tires rotated on Big Red 🚘 later this week but I might wait another week on that. In September I will get Red to Watkins Spring to have them do an computerized alignment and replace the struts if necessary before doing the tires. My local shop doesn’t have the equipment for the big wheels. Honestly, I don’t care as I think I will end up putting on new tires in October but I keep noticing how cupped and noisy the tire is getting, and it feeds my anxiety. It’s kind of bad but the tires should be replaced before winter so I have decent snow traction.
I would like to get to Schoharie County and Mine Kill 🏊🏻♂️ this weekend before summer is done. Do I take a three day weekend? I am undecided on that fact. If it’s rainy, I guess I could do Thacher Park 🏞 again. Right now it sure looks like it would be a good week for Schoharie as summer is fading away quickly.
