Spent a few hours at Hillsborough River State Park near my brother's house today. I walked a couple of trails and ended up using all the memory on my cell phone taking videos and photos like the one above. I'd mistakenly believed I had my Garmin Virb with me, but when I tried to exchange one camera for the other I discovered how wrong I was.  At that point I left.  There are a few other parks in the area that I might try checking out tomorrow.

And so, I let the system go always in the going to get to it  phase.  The weather outside is frightful And then the weather turned. Not enough to worry about, but enough to remind me I had things to take care of in my truck. Earlier this week we had high temperatures in the teens and 20s, snow and freezing rain.  I had no heat or defrost. It was miserable.  So, today's one and only goal was to once and for all discover why the heater blower wasn't working.  With a multimeter I checked the voltage at the blower
