Last night my friend/bartender texted me this. It’s from 2008. She was going through old photos looking for one of a long time employee who recently turned 70. It will serve as the base for a painted portrait.
Judging from my attire, I was on my bike that night. Fun times.

what is strange for me is the difference between the sunrise and sunset in Northern locations and Southern ones. Of course where I live now is also further west than in PA. The longest day in Sharpsville would have light until about 9:30 and light in the morning would be evident before 6 AM. On the longest day here it is light until about 9. Also the sunset is nearly the same from late November until Christmas. It also stays light out an hour longer. I hated winter up north for many reasons and the early sunset was one of them.

The one I have has the props inside protective ducts so running into things isn't really a problem. The only real annoying thing is when I crash on the other level of my house than I'm sitting in, then having to get up and try to find it 
I've got the old Inductrix FPV. There was quite a large aftermarket source of upgrades back a few years ago. I think that the modified original Inductrix became known as the "Tiny Whoop". They all use 6mm diameter brushed motors.
I was informed at the hobby store that FPV multirotors are no longer all that popular. I was surprised since man they were everywhere.

The Jets are just too sad to watch. Darnold sucks, always has, and I never knew what they saw in him. Pathetic.

Not really. I have nothing against them, and turning it around gives me reason to hope my Giants can approach respectability again.
And it will be funny to see the pundits squirming after everyone predicted the Titans would expose the Browns as illusory.

Some action at the Evanston roundhouse! This sweet little switcher was rotting away in a park, but now tucked in at the roundhouse. I'm not sure what railroad it operated on, doesn't seem to be from the UP roster.

A-ha. Looks like the road number was actually 4420, some weedheads must've painted over the leading 4 as a joke
