Days 534, 535 & 536 – (AD 1,695) – 70.9 Miles –Jim’s Trek Part V – Mars on My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

I now have less than 1,500 miles to go.

I pedaled 70.9 miles Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday past on my Schwinn 170. Totals are now 36,709.1 miles; 59,077.7 kilometers.

My destination is Ulysses Fossae. As I continue, I am now located at 71.62%.

Something to think and make sure to do something about –

The 2018 midterm elections are over. There are some losses, and there are some wins. And #45 is still holed up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

And the best news is that I was able to make the 60th cup of coffee our the almost new Orenda Coffee. Cost of each cup to date is $7.23.

Once we make our 375th cup , we will be only paying for the coffee beans.

Even though I did purchase this marvel of an Orenda Coffee machine, I will never ever use Kickstarter again to purchase an item.

Tuesday night was my attempt at a Korean Bibimbap.

Last night’s supper was a Thai Shrimp Corn Chowder.

Ingredients - Water, Potato, Corn. Bring to boil, 20-minute simmer. Partial purée. Coconut Milk, Red Thai Chili Paste, Cilantro. 5-minute simmer. Shrimp, Jalapeño, Fish Sauce, Lime Juice. 3 minutes.

(I added some Corn Flour slurry to add some thickening. I didn’t include amounts as I sort of taste and cook, and then eat.)
