Monday 20- I did my stretches and yoga, ran a mile, and lifted weights.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 69 to 101 degrees, light breeze, humidity around 12 percent, clear skies. Just another beautiful day!
According to the National Weather Service: “Tuesday: Sunny, with a high near 95. Calm wind becoming south between 15 and 18 mph. Winds could gust as high as 25 mph. Tuesday Night: Clear, with a low around 61. Southwest wind between 7 and 17 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph.
I needed to finish the frame to my two 130Watt solar panels and get them on the roof. I already had the wood cut and just had to drill the bolt holes and paint the wood. This took the better part of the afternoon to do.
Jimmy called as I was looking for a wood drill bit I misplaced and haven’t found yet. He’s having problems with his new refrigerator not going down to zero. I fired up the Harley so Jimmy would know that I had finally got it. :)
I got the bolt holes all drilled and two coats of paint on the wood frame parts. Now I’ll let them dry and go inside and do my studies: Latin and pre-algebra.
I read aloud from the textbook “Astronomy Today” new chapter about Dwarf Stars.
At 5:30 I put my tools, the wood frame parts, and the two solar panels on the roof. It took me about an hour to assemble it all. I didn’t hook the electrical up to it yet because the Sun was low in the sky and I need more light to test the hookup.
I went for my evening walk listening to Astro 10 lecture #40 “Echoes of the Big Bang”.
I read from the two how to study books until 9pm.
I sat outside with bright Jupiter and the brighter waxing gibbous Moon listening to Astro 10 lecture #41 “The Contents of the Universe”.
I read a couple of chapters from “The Light of Other Days” by Arthur C. Clarke.
I did my stretches and went for a night run, practiced my guitar, wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.
