The morning started out dark, cloudy, light breeze and cool – 53 degrees F. The lower atmosphere was overcast with thick clouds, slight drizzle and the air was clean after the rain. Th walking trail was flooded but the basketball court was wet but suitable for walking. The autonomous car company was testing their vehicles last night and their flood lights were turned on. No sign of rabbits grazing on the fields. As the morning progressed, the sky got brighter and thick gray clouds were everywhere. Started walking after the drizzle stopped at 5:30 AM. The walk was nice and refreshing. The birds were perched on the fence waiting for food from the inmates. After breakfast, they feasted on cake and bread from the inmates. Completed walking 6 miles at 7:30 AM, since the weather was clear, I decided to walk extra 4 miles to make up for my deficiency from yesterday. Completed 10 miles walk at 8:30 PM, in 2 hours and 16 seconds. Average walking times were: 12 minutes and 2 seconds per mile or 48 seconds per lap. Stretched and split stretched at the basketball court until 9:00 AM. Talked to Doris at 9:05 AM: Doris is well and rested. It stopped raining and the dogs are out of their dog house an eating their food. She ordered her grocery online and they charged her a delivery charge of $5. Diana thought the delivery charge was excessive but when Doris asked her to go shopping for grocery, she was unavailable. She was working on her peacock embroidery design for her sweat shirt and hope to finish it today. The GSW lost their game to the Brooklyn Nets last night. I told her I will be busy with tutoring, statistics class and hemming pants. She will stay home to wait for her grocery and walk indoors. Showered and changed to BOP uniform at 9:30 AM. Counselor Reyes informed me, we will have a self surrender inmate today and assigned him to bunk # 57U. Helped commissary staff unload some merchandise for commissary day tomorrow. The autonomous car company turned off their flood light. Lunch was served at 10:20 AM. Luncheon menu: chicken parmigiana, buns, spinach, salad, apple and water. Went to sewing room: completed Hemming 3 dozens pants and repaired a dozen pants. Checked email from Doris: Doris is well. She walked 8631 steps, 15.5 inches step length and symmetry was 8.6%. Yesterday was the 286th consecutive days she closed the ring on her iPhone. She ordered her grocery from Amazon and it will be delivered for a $5 tip and $3.99 delivery charge. GSW lost their game to the Brooklyn Nets last night . Hope they will play better on Wednesday against the Thunders. She will work on her peacock design sweat shirt. GED/Statistics tutoring 12:00 – 1:45 PM. Statistics class 1:45 – 3:00 PM. The new inmate arrived at the camp at 2:00 PM and I processed him and changed his bunk to #63 L as he has a back problem. The Statistics class was supposed to have quiz today but was postponed because the USP was on locked down. Census count at 3:30 PM. Dinner was served after the count. Dinner menu: pepper beef, rice, mixed vegetables, bread and water. The autonomous car company turned on the flood lights and tested their vehicles. Census count at 6:00 PM. Census count at 7:00 PM.
