HI Folks. How you all doing this morning? Good I hope. It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring Ontario. The temperature has risen through the night, sitting at -12 C | 10.4 F. Not too bad for the last day of January. And it will continue to be on the warm side into tomorrow and the day after. Temperatures tomorrow and the next day will be above the freezing mark … so we should get rid of some of our snow. Highway 522 is partially snow covered with some icy sections throughout this morning. We are also seeing some light flurries, but the sunshine should break through as the day progresses. Great day for the snowmobiles.

On another note, I didn’t do all that much yesterday. I had some work to do in the basement and helped my lovely wife around the house here. Today I will get into another podcast which will keep my mind busy, which is what is needed when you get my age. With that, I am off for some pancakes that my little woman is making me, which should give me the energy needed to make it through the morning. Ha Ha. Take care. GW

Good Morning! It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. We didn’t have any more snow overnight. Which is fine with me. Also, the cold that we were having has left us, and I suspect it will remain that way now for the remainder of the winter. Oh, we will get a cold night from time to time, but the real cold I think is behind us. But hey, you never know what Mother Nature has in store. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at -17.6 C | 0.32 F. It will warm up as the day progresses, and we could see a wee bit of snow throughout the day.

On another note, I noticed the snowmobiles are out and about with the trails being open. Nice to see folks out enjoying life for a change. Yesterday, my lovely wife and I went to town to pick up our groceries that we ordered online. With so many being sick these days, we figured it’s best to stay out of all the stores we can. Least for now.

We did notice that there wasn’t as many people going into the stores while we were there, but there were a lot of cars in the parking lots. While there, we visited our son in the parking lot at his apartment, chatted a bit and dropped off a few things his Mother made for him. After that, we found a nice spot where we could watch what the other half is doing and ate our lunch. After that, we headed on home, enjoying a coffee along with the scenery. There is always lots to see along the way, and we enjoy it a lot. We also enjoy getting out of the house from time to time so that we can breathe some different air.

With that, I am off for a bowl of cereal and will then settle in working on a story or two I have in mind.

Oh, and we had 15 Doves at our bird feeder having breakfast this morning. They are our favourite birds along with the crows. Fun to watch them. Take care and stay safe.

Good Morning! It’s another cold morning here in Port Loring Ontario. However, the sun is shinning, which makes it look nice. Yesterday and through the night we had another 8-10 inches of snow. More in drifts. Actually, I have one drift in front of our house that is about three feet deep. Highway 522 is snow and ice covered, but the snowplow has been through. So being a sunny day, and if you have snow tires on, and your car will start … you’re good to go. Ha Ha.

Yesterday I worked most of the day here on some stories and things. Which kept me busy. Today, my lovely wife and I will be busy all morning cleaning out the driveway along with our decks. It shouldn’t be too bad, as the snow we had is on the lite side.

With that, I am off for a bowl of oatmeal and a piece of toast. Take care and stay safe. Seems every day more are dying from this virus. Yesterday it was over 70. If this keeps up, 2100 will be dying every month in Ontario alone.
