At the mercy of the sun

 Solar power is the new norm for the Earth Module.  We bought a new solar panel and are relying on it to charge the ebikes.  Winky's bike is charged, but Kadizzle has to wait for the sun to fully charge his bike.  Kadizzle is thinking of buying one more panel, but Winky is resisting.  Harvesting sunlight is kind of like growing a garden.  We have a generator, but prefer not to use it.  Today may be another ebike adventure.  Kadizzle is amazed about the excellent ebike riding here in the Badlands.  The views are amazing, and the trails are very good.  A lot of good planning went into these trails.  The trails are not for the weak of heart or those afraid of high places.  You could make a mistake and be in big trouble in some places.  In a few places you are riding on the edge of a cliff.  Of course you could do this on a regular pedal bike, but you would need to be in good condition.  This summer we have probably done more than one hundred miles on the Ma Da Hey trail.  The 21 mile ride yesterday was our longest continuous ride.

If people do not wake up and vote Trump out we are well on our way to a dictatorship once they sew up the supreme court.
