Good Morning:  Cold Monday morning here in Port Loring.  Temperatures waking up were sitting at -23.7 C | -10.66 F.

Forecast For Today:   Some Snow with a bit of sunshine peeking though now and then, very unsettled.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 is partially covered with hard packed snow, along with a few icy sections throughout.  Care should be taken but travelling should be OK.  Will remain cold all day warming up a wee bit tomorrow.

Ice Fishing Times:  This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM.  Then again a bit later from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM.  I give it a 5 fish rating out of 5 for catching a few. Can’t get any better.  Good Luck!

Around Town:  Our Winterfest is almost ready to begin.  For all the details just click on the flyer.  On another note, I have been digging into last years supply of garlic.  Had a substantial amount harvested and is it good.  My wife adds it to almost every meal.  To get the best out of your garlic you should be eating a wee bit each day raw,  along with cooking it.  The cooking brings out other beneficial items where the raw has its own.  Both are needed to maintain a healthy body.  There is nothing like garlic for over all health.  I don’t recommend buying the off shore kind.  A way to make sure you are getting the best of the best, look for garlic in your grocery store that has a bit of roots still attached to the bulb.  So my friends time for a Chaga Tea and see what the day brings upon us.  Every day is a mystery, unfolding right before our eyes.  In Closing I Would Like To Wish You Well.   You can reach George Walters at [email protected]
