I left my house and it was still hovering near 100*. I threw a pair of military pants in the car as well as a jacket. I went from 800' to 8,000'. I finally put my jacket on around midnight, but mostly because it had been drizzling on and off and I pulled it out of my car to cover my camera. It was really nice to be in "colder" weather.

My cousin emailed the other day to suggest that I bring a pullover when I go to Europe next month. I wrote back and told him it's been in the triple digits and I am looking forward to cold, rainy weather!

You sure? I'll gladly give it up (7C now) - sharing is caring.


Tonights astronomy theme got me doing a bit of interwebs research - found this bit of Oz history Island Lagoon

I've passed this site many times, and even lived about 20km from it for a few years. On one of our trips south a few years ago, we drove down to the old site and had a poke around.

Anyway, I'm off to find my warm bed. Hooroo

We has another sprinkle last night. Just a trace of rain but it is better than nothing. It is still cool and cloudy. Time to go mow the yard for the last time in a while. I have a guy set up to mow it for the next few weeks.

OK, well I guess this is why I am an ME...

When the FSAE car stopped working I had thought briefly about the "low voltage" battery being dead, but we only ran for 5-10 minutes intermittently and it was 13.6V when we started. I figured 13.6V was close enough to charged for a 12V battery. Well, that voltage was just barely enough for the low voltage battery. It became too low after running. I charged it fully today (2+hours) and it went up to around 14.5V. Car works now.
