Day 276 – (AD 706) – Jim's Trek Part III – 21.4 Miles – Well I Got On My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

Today I cycled 21.4 miles on my Schwinn 170.

Yes I did get on my Fitness Cycle…though I really contemplated not. Could have been that I was up until the wee hours of the morning playing the only PC game I ever play, Civilization. But I did pedal and I am still awake.

I am glad that my Trek is a virtual one because I know that if it was not for the fantasy reality of my National Highway 1 I would be asleep at the wheel.

I did my exercise… I have now racked up 14,567.6 miles; 23,444.3 kilometers.

All 120 blocks, 5-inch square have been completed for our new Chopsticks quilt. Scanning the last 16 to input to create draft design. The quilting has begun on our new NT Celebration king-size quilt. Fabric samples are on the way for the new Moon Over Bayshore queen-size quilt. Follow our progress on Quilts SB.

This will be short. Brain not working too well today.

This is my 746th Jim’s Trek post. And according to Blogger Jim’s Trek has recorded, as of this morning, 57,292 Pageviews.

Day 275 – (AD 705) – Jim's Trek Part III – 21.0 Miles – Afternoon On My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

This afternoon I cycled 21.0 miles on my Schwinn 170. My total miles now are 14,546.2 miles; 23,409.9 kilometers.

I am now located, heading south on National Highway 1. Not much to see.

I am at a loss. I received a list of Jobs that I may be interested in from Linkedin yesterday. The majority of offerings appear to be close to my past experience and education. But one one on the list does not make any sense to me.

– Chaplain – US Air Force Reserve…here in the Tampa Bay area.

Guess some Artificial Intelligence is off somewhere. I appreciate the compliment. It may have been a thought in the recesses of my mind some 40 years ago, but unless I wrote something down while I was sleeping at some point in time, I really wonder how the mathematical and computer computation may have come up with that one.

Day 274 – (AD 704) – Jim's Trek Part III – 21.4 Miles – Boredom Maybe, On My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

I spent all day yesterday putting and setting up the exterior Christmas lights and display at the house. I truly do not go into inflatables and I certainly want to make sure it is warm when I manage the lights and wires to the peak performance.

Today I cycled 21.4 miles on my Schwinn 170. I have now reached and accomplished 58.33% of my overall goal. My total miles now equal 14,525.2; kilometers 23,376.1.

Virtual journey and Trek is not going to be too spectacular for the next couple of days. I should be arriving at my next destination and goal point in about 34 days.

Last night’s menu – Penang Chicken and Eggplant Curry and Hare Moong Ki Kachari, this morning’s blood sugar count – 95. I dropped 11 points. Oh by the way Kachari relatively easy to make – Rice, Split Mung Beans, Onions, Spices…sort of an East Indian pilaf.

All the 120 blocks have been or are almost created for the inner top of our new Chopsticks quilt.

My cycling companion is the 2011 series Falling Skies. Aliens have landed on earth and are currently wiping out the human race. The humans are fighting. My type of science fiction and fantasy.

Google Cardboard? The new virtual View-Master?

Day 273 – (AD 703) – Jim's Trek Part III – 23.1 Miles – 14,500 Miles On My Schwinn Fitness Cycles

Good Day,

This morning I cycled 23.1 miles on my Schwinn 170. I think I got carried away today.

My grand total now stands at 14,503.8 miles; 23,341.7 kilometers. And a dark chocolate milkshake after 8:00 pm can certain increase my blood sugar count; this morning I recorded 106.

Today I am headed in a southeasterly direction on National Highway 1. I reached the intersection at Central Arnhem Road. I think I am in the area of Central Arnhemland. And I believe I will be heading to the right. Got 702 miles to go to my next destination and goal point.

Question – Would 250,000 emails persuade me to vote for another Bush in 2016?

Day 272 – (AD 702) – Jim's Trek Part III – 21.0 Miles – Beyond Katherine On My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

This morning I continued my pedaling Trek and I cycled another 21.0 miles on my Schwinn 170. I have now reached 14,480.7 miles; 23,304.5 kilometers.

It looks like the same old images are appearing on my virtual Trek in the part of Australia.

I did venture past the Town of Katherine today. This means that I am headed into a completely different part of Northern Territory. With a population of about 6,100, Katherine is the fourth largest settlement in the Territory. The total population of Northern Territory is just about 233,000. My calculation works out to about 1 person to every 2 square miles… Definitely don’t have to worry about nosy neighbors.

I'm following the colored feathers.

I am amazed at what lengths people will go to hurt others. False advertising to make a political point, in this day and age, whether right or wrong is damn right stupid. What comes to mind is “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known” – 1 Cor. 13:12

And now the end is near…er. We’re facing the final curtain. You have the money, you have the vote.

From today’s The New York Times “G.O.P. Angst Over 2016 Led to Provision on Funding” -

“It is now headed for likely passage as a rider in a $1.1 trillion spending bill loaded with provisions sought by banks, food industry lobbyists and other special interests.”

80 blocks have been completed for our new Chopsticks quilt. Check out the latest update at Quilts SB - http://quiltssb.com/.
