We cooked an egg in a makeshift solar oven today! I figured with the heat it would be a good idea. There were some clouds so it took a while but there was definitely cooking action. In the end it did not look appetizing, but it was fun to see it cook. My older son helped.

We had some strong wind last evening from thunderstorms. This morning I went for a run and saw some trees fell down in the neighborhood. I'm wondering if it was a down burst.
PBS Nova has a good documentary about these phenomena. It's neat how falling rain or hail can evaporate/sublimate and cool surrounding air which causes it to descend rapidly. But the resulting wind when the downburst hits the ground is dangerous.

No Kings! I enjoyed the protest today in Rutherford. I forgot to take pictures while I was there but here is me and my sign from after. I had some good conversations with the other protesters. We are not ok with what is happening and we are doing something about it!

I'm looking forward to the No Kings 3 rally tomorrow! I'm going to volunteer at this one which is a first for me. I'm hoping that the community shows up even stronger than last time. In times like these, it's so encouraging to see my neighbors standing together in solidarity.

I went for a walk in my neighborhood and I heard a recording saying that I was on video. I guess the house has a surveillance system that detects pedestrians and then plays the message. A few houses down another house had the same kind of system.
I felt startled, uncomfortable but also confused. I can see the cameras, why do they need to play a message? (maybe it is for accessibility?). In that moment, I really could use some trust and warmth. I would much prefer a "good morning" from a neighbor than this recorded message.

I saw some dark eyed juncos over the past few days around our yard in Rutherford, NJ. In our area we only see them in the winter. I like these little birds! They have a nice gray and white coloring. I like their attitude too. I see then in little groups, busily but playfully foraging. At least that's how it looks to me!

There was a very large fire at a synagogue in my town of Rutherford last night https://newjersey.news12.com/massive-overnight-fire-engulfs-jewish-community-center-in-rutherford
Thankfully the rabbi and his family who live there made it out OK, but the building was completely destroyed. -

I really enjoyed the No Kings rally today in Rutherford, NJ. Despite some rainy weather there was a good turnout. The energy was upbeat.
I am glad I went to a local protest today. It was nice to know there are others in the area who want to resist this regime. I chatted with several people. I ended up even inviting one of the people met to join the fediverse!

I just found out my local library has a "library of things" where it lends out different tools and useful items! https://rutherfordlibrary.org/library-of-things/ So cool, I'm excited to try it out.

My area in Rutherford, NJ, has been having a very dry fall. I checked the drought.gov site, and we are, in fact, in a moderate drought, the D1 classification. But other areas have it much worse. Much of West Virgina is in extreme drought, D3, with some areas in exceptional drought, D4. https://www.climate.gov/news-features/event-tracker/west-virginia-facing-worst-drought-least-two-decades
