84 YESTERDAY, 44 TODAY

It does not do any good to complain about it … the weather, that is. But come on … stop with the teasing. I mean yesterday was 84 degrees and lots of blue sky and sunshine. Today was only 44 with a totally overcast sky. That is hard on a guy (or gal). The ten day forecast shows nearly everyday below normal temperature-wise. Of course, this is typical Indiana weather at this time of year. Truthfully we never know what we will get as I have seen it in the 90s & 100s early on and come August when it normally is in the 90s it only was in the 60s. Strange things are happening I tell ya.

It is hard to go from wearing shorts and a short sleeve shirt back to clothing I wear thru the winter, but it is necessary if I want to stay warm enough.

 

And failing to dress warm enough makes for a miserable ride. It feels so good to stop and go inside of a restaurant or restroom where it is much warmer. I find myself staying longer than I normally would as my body warms back up. But all good things must come to an end as I have miles to go before I am finished. Hot cocoa time as it really helps when chilled. No need of sunburn protection for awhile.

MIXED BAG OF WEATHER

reckon it’s that time of year. I am talking about when one day it is 60 degrees and the next day it is 30 degrees with a feels like temperature of 20. Strong winds are also common which, of course, cause the “feels like” temperature. Along with that it goes from bright sunshine with cloud free skies to totally overcast and that can happen all in one day. Usually however when it goes from 60 to 30 it is a much slower process to get back to warmer temperatures. Rarely does it go from 30 to 60 in one day. It usually takes a few days of slowly warming to get back to 60 and oftentimes the weather forecast is inaccurate. They may show 60 for a high but it may never get past 57 or so. And just when it gets back up to 60 or so another cold spell hits repeating the cycle. I tell ya it would not be like this if I was in charge. As I compose this I think it is 3 more days until Spring starts. Of course, that is only a date on the calendar. It doesn’t really mean much. Some of the worst winter weatherI have lived thru occurred in late March. Hopefully that won’t happen again anytime soon.

Anyway, this change in the weather plays havoc with my riding my trike. I can handle riding in 40 mph winds but not when the temperature is already too low for comfort. No, I stay home remembering that “this too shall pass”.

There are those who say that there is  no such thing as “chem-trails” … that all we see in the skies are con-trails. I say hog wash! If they are all con-trails why do lots of them look a lot different and have a different effect up in the sky? I believe that man is manipulating the weather by releasing chemicals from high flying aircraft, but it doesn’t stop with the weather. I believe some very evil things are going on high up into our atmosphere. The people behind this have let it be known that their goal and agenda is to eliminate 90 % of the world population. They want to greatly decrease the number of people to a “manageaable” number as they strive to gain total control thus fulfilling end time bible prophecy.

 

If airplanes are not spraying chemicals in the sky then will somebody please explain all the pictures and videos that are available showing it.

Recently “they” used a so-called vaccine containing harmful ingredients which do great damage to those foolish enough to allow it to be injected into their bodies. Already tens of thousands of those who received the injection have died. Of course, the corrupt Fake News media is keeping pretty much silent about this. Even if the recipients of these injections have not yet died many of them are dealing with lots of sickness in their bodies that they never had before.  Some do not believe man is capable of such evil but I remind you of what God has said to us … “The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick; Who can understand it?” Jeremiah  17:9 NASB

If the future of mankind was not foretold in God’s Word then I would not so readily believe what many call conspiracy theories. But hey, that is exactly what is going on.  By the very definition of the word conspiracy … “conspiracy — a secret plan or agreement to carry out an illegal or harmful act, esp with political motivation; plot the act of making such plans in secret.” For a very long time these evil hearted people tried their best to keep what they were up to unknown as much as possible. But after some time had passed they had become so powerful and so much in control that they no longer concerned themselves with hiding what is going on. Then United States President George H. Bush openly declared that they are working to establish  a “New World Order” in which the super rich and powerful players will control all of the world. They had come a long way toward accomplishing their agenda when something happened they did not expect. Someone other than one of their own was elected President of the U.S. and right away started to reverse everything they had worked so hard to put into place. They had counted on Hillary Clinton to win the election and continue on with their plan but that did not happen. Donald Trump knows what is going on and unlike these evil hearted people he loves this country and does not want to see it destroyed. He truly made America great again. The elitists need to get rid of him. They cheated big time in the 2020 election in order to keep him out of the White House and put their people back in power. They have tried numerous ways to attack him and deal with him … mostly making all kinds of false charges against him but nothing has worked. Now they plan on arresting him on false charges to take him out of the picture. I don’t think they will succeed as Trump and many patriotic people have out smarted and out manuevered these elitists every step of the way. The Deep State people are desperate as they know they are being exposed and defeated. Time is quickly running out for them.

The truth is slowly coming out and people will know just how evil their fellowman has been. It will be a real eye opener for the majority of the people.

Well, a mixed bag of weather is what we have regardless of how we are getting it. I learned long ago just to take one day at a time. Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow will have it’s own problems and concerns. Today is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. And if I get to go for a trike ride … well, that is just icing on the cake.

BTW, as I type this the actual temperature is 21 degrees F. with a 19 mph wind resulting in a feels like temperature of 5 degrees.   BRRRRRRRRR! I am thankful for a warm home to take shelter in. Tomorrow will be a little warmer … but come next week when this gets published “happy days are here again” with temps back into the 50s and maybe even 60. That is all good news, but the bad news is many days in the 10 day forecast show rain.  BOOOOOO  WHOOOO!!!

SOMETHING HAS CHANGED IN THE WEATHER

am now almost 76 years old so a few years have passed by since my childhood. I grew up in and near Auburn, Indiana in DeKalb County. Every year I anxiously awaited the arrival of the annual free fall fair which takes place in Auburn. It takes place starting the last weekend of September and goes thru the following Sunday for a total of 9 days. As a child I loved the fair … mainly the carnival rides. One memory I have is that there were lots of leaves on the ground every time the fair came around. BUT now that is not the case. The fair has come and gone and the leaves are still on the trees. They have not started to fall off yet. Only a few trees’ leaves have even started to change colors. The annual leaf pickup service the city provides comes around and our leaves are still on the trees. By the time they do fall they are covered with snowfall often times. That never use to happen. Yeppur … something in the weather has changed. The left wing liberals want us to believe their nonsense about global warming.  The holy scriptures are clear … there is nothing new under the sun. What is happening now has happened before. It is not global warming. King Solomon wrote “What has been, it is what will be, And what has been done, it is what will be done. So there is nothing new under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 Anyway, the leaves are not changing color and falling off the trees as early in the season as they used to years ago.

Why am I sharing all this you ask? Well, simply enough those falling leaves when they do occur end up on the trails and present a problem. They need to be removed. But when they fall later in the season than they used to sometimes they end up being covered with snow before they get removed making it all the more difficult to deal with. The leaves mixed together with snow are heavy making them hard to sweep off or even plow off. Wet leaves are harder to move than dry leaves. Wet leaves stick to the pavement whether it be asphalt or concrete. I personally don’t like riding on a leaf covered trail as they hide the trail making it dangerous.

Of course, a snow covered trail is just as bad. A few years ago I was riding on a snow covered trail in Tillman Park and as I was going around a curve I ended up way off of the trail since I could not tell where it was. The snow hid it. I was probably 45 feet or so off of it before I realized it and had to turn and head back over to where the trail was. It was embarrassing. And the worst of it was I left tracks showing everybody that came along what happened.

The Fall Fair still goes on year after year but I lost interest in it long long ago. Now I would not go to it if someone paid me. I reckon the weather is not the only thing that has changed. I bet I would still love the carnival rides but I don’t know if I could handle them. And it is not likely I will ever find out. I will just stick with my tadpole trike and  ENJOY THE RIDE. It is wild enough at times. So far I have been able to handle it though. And my plan is to …

RAIN SNOW WIND & OCASSIONALLY A NICE DAY

It is that time of year. The weather is all over the place. One day can be in the high 60s and the next day only in the high 30s. Lots of rain but also snow coming down. And the wind … even on those high 60s days it is often quite windy. It makes for interesting trike riding. And definitely it is like playing Russian Roulette with our health as it is all too easy to get a cold and/or cough if we venture out for a ride. But I don’t let that stop me. Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead! Well, maybe half speed. We dare not ignore the wind chill factor. And there is yet another factor … a wife who forbids me to go out riding out of concern for my health. It is interesting that it is ok for me to go out riding on a winter day with temperatures in the 30s but come Springtime with fluctuating temperatures … nope … no can do. Sometimes I truly envy bachelors. Tomorrow is another day … just like I have been talking about … with below normal temperatures and definitely a bit windy. But hey, I am planning on going riding and do my best to …

ENJOY THE RIDE!

Yep, I am trying my best to  …
