Is this my religion? My parent created everything, therefore everything is part of my family.

Sol is delighted to go slow on steep, but not thrilled.
So there was a lot of climbing today, not much distance, not much solar energy because of all the trees and clouds yesterday, we ended the day at about 60% battery, maybe 50%. so James decided to set the contribution factor for Saul at 3 instead of 4 for each watt that James produces. He expected to see considerably better than the 50 to watts per-mile that he's been demanding of Sol's electricity. Not so. The conclusion being that Sol is delighted to go at the low speed that less contribution from Sol yields, more time at two-and-a-half or three miles an hour, but not without a price. The motors were cool, but none the less clearly not running at Peak efficiency. Interesting lesson.
When I noted that the businesses along the road in North Carolina were shuttered, Dave said, well, their governor shut them down for covid. Ours kept US Open. Tennessee.

By nearly all indications the posting I've been doing on Facebook these years is nothing but idle entertainment for a few. None appear to be turning now to this blog now that I've been banned...

None appear to be turning now to this blog now that I've been banned.... from Facebook for another 4 days. I'm so glad of the discovery. Discovery, that's really the word. What Jesus tried to provide to people, to make available, can only be found through discovery. As I realized before but maybe am realizing enough now, I've been robbing people of the opportunity to discover, by trying too hard.

Just stopping to admire your rig, like everyone else, he said.... this turned out to be the proprietor of the Appalachian Trail hostel just a hundred yards from where I was sitting looking to figure where I would spend the night. I mentioned that to Dave and he said, hey, Park in my lot. Later on he said, oh breakfast? Yes we serve it to those in the hostel, come in, they'll be no charge. I'll pay, I said. They'll be no charge Dave said. Later on having done some work on Sol, sometime was spent looking at tomorrow's itinerary, and there's a national park sort of thing that caught my attention, 3000 ft climb which is the equivalent of 30 mi in and of itself, 14 miles on the odometer. A lot of traveling and not toward Northern Washington. But nature is where Creator is so I asked Dave. Oh, it's one of the three best views in the country, or maybe he said the East Coast. Something like six feet shorter than Mount Washington. A whole different world up there he said. If it's clear. Which it may not be tomorrow. But I think that's what we'll do. It will take all of the energy that Sol has to give, and James. Will be empty when we get up there. But the entire ride to Johnson City the next day is basically free, 37 miles, but roughly 42 MI worth of of kinetic energy to be harvested. And of course we have the generator. Did quite a bit of preventive maintenance on SOL, but there's not much required anymore. Khanh has built such a miraculous machine, truly lovely. Spoke briefly with a fellow that has walked the country and back, and north and south as well from coast to coast, Clinton, on an anti-suicide walk, and his magnificent partner Watonga.
Fact: the Israelis are not occupiers, not settlers, they're Alien Invaders. They left their nice safe comfortable homes in the United States and Germany and Poland and Russia to invade Palestine and steal their land. They are brilliant at corrupting human rights worldwide in service of this end so they can complete their atrocity. And after 70 years the Palestinians have not yet surrendered. And your American tax dollars and your silence is making this atrocity happen, this genocide in 2021 funded and supported by you nice Americans. That's it.

Living for young children brought out the Best in Me, biological Offspring, Elementary School students. I need to summon them to my imagination constantly for joy. To bring out the Best in Me.
