the "What are you doing NOW" thread (part deux)

doing the payroll

Ah, extreme tides at dawn mean nothing to do but the crosswords until the tide comes in a bit to cover the mudflats...

New record for Portland paper...

Meh, > 1 min for NYTimes Mini. On to LA Times and then if I'm still bored, time to go mano a mano with NYTimes daily...

Under 30 min, not bad at all. "West" side of the puzzle flew by, East was tougher for me...

Dealing with traffic on the north fork. Why did I agree to come out here on a weekend?!?

This time of the year we don't leave the house on the weekend, cornstalks, apple pickers, next will come the pumpkin pickers. Tomorrow, Sunday the 20th, their will be a Trump parade on route 25 starting I think in East Northport, through Riverhead out to Greenport, going to be a traffic disaster.

Could NOT BELIEVE the crazy North Fork traffic when I visited 5 Junes ago and friend informs me that it is much, much worse now. He often reverts to multiple right turns instead of a single left on Sound Avenue.

I used to make it from Echo Avenue and Rocky Pt Road to Orient By the Sea in 55 minutes back in the late 70s. Now I understand 75 minutes is warp speed...

Yea, and with the capacity thing every place had lines to get in. We finally settled for Montauk Distillery on Second St at the old Riverhead FD.

That’s the gas one I also have it in electric, both going now. The gas one isn’t mine.

I like the gas better
Easier to maintain a steady temp vs the electric heating element that goes on and off
