Good Morning… You know, I have found over the years, that there’s no shortcut to doing it right the first time.
So it’s looking as if we’re in for another nice day here in Cottage Country. The sun is showing off, and at the moment, there isn’t a cloud in the sky. There’s just something about these early morning hours that brings on a feeling of contentment up here in the north. I suppose it comes down to the quiet, the stillness, and being surrounded by nothing but nature.
Weather For Port Loring, Ontario Canada:
Today – Wednesday, May 28
It’s shaping up to be a beauty. Expect sunshine through the morning, with a few clouds drifting in later. The high will reach around 80°F (27°C). Winds will be light, and the air will feel fresh. By evening, there’s a chance of showers moving in though, so you might want to keep an eye on the sky if you’re planning to be out.
Tonight
Clouds will thicken as the night goes on, bringing a good chance of showers. The low will dip to about 53°F (12°C). It’ll be a calm night, perfect for listening to the rain on the roof.
Tomorrow – Thursday, May 29
A cooler day ahead. Expect mostly cloudy skies with occasional showers, especially in the morning. The high will be around 62°F (17°C), and the low will settle near 49°F (10°C). A good day to catch up on indoor tasks or enjoy a quiet moment or two by the window.
Highway 522 is still quiet in our area. Not too many folks moving around. But it is early in the season, and the weather hasn’t been all that nice. With that, and the price of things these days, folks are staying close to home. But in saying that, as soon as the nice weather hits, I’m sure our country style of living will start to play on the city folks’ minds, and the call of the country will be upon them. And when that happens… well, old Highway 522 will start to get busy.
Bug Report:
Well, them black flies are out in full force, along with the mosquitoes—those blood-sucking parasites. But the good news is, I did spot a dragonfly or two yesterday, and their main meal just so happens to be black flies and mosquitoes. Which means we humans and critters will get some relief in the coming days.
On another note,
Yesterday I worked the day away getting more things in the woodworking shop ready for our next garage sale this weekend. My wife’s been busy, too, clearing out more from the house. Between the two of us, we’ve rounded up a good mix of treasures—old tools, handmade pieces, kitchen odds and ends, some vintage finds, and who knows what else.
If you’re out for a drive or just looking for something to do, swing on by. You never know what you might find—and chances are, you’ll leave with something you didn’t know you needed. We’ll be set up and ready to go this weekend, and we’d sure enjoy the visit.
So, with that bit of information out in the open, I’m off to enjoy the breakfast my lovely wife’s put together for me, and then I’ll be heading outdoors. Still early, but there’s no sense wasting a beautiful day like this.
