Highway Report:  Highway 522 is bare and dry.  There is quite a few deer and moose standing along side and on the highway.  So care should be taken if out and about.  Especially in the evening hours.  Travelling will be great today.

Fishing Times:  Today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 7:00 AM – 9:30 AM.  Then once again a bit later from 4:30 PM – 6:00 PM.  I give it a 4 fish rating out of 5 this morning for catching a few and a 5 fish rating this afternoon.  Can’t get much better.  Winds this morning are coming in from the south at 0.8 m/s | 2.88 km/h | 1.79 mph.  Good Luck!

Around Town;  Crazy weather here in Port Loring.  Daytime highs up into the 70s F and at night down into the 40s.  Even had the oil furnace running here for a few minutes this morning to warm things up and take the dampness out of the house.  Today I am just taking things easy.  Might even get into that western book I have been looking at on my dresser for the past two days.  Every so often the urge seems to strike to read other than write.  What ever the reason I don’t question it, as usually it is a sign of what should be done.  So with that tea time here.  Orange Pekoe tea with Dandelion is what is calling me this morning.  Enjoy your day and stay safe.  You can reach George Walters if you so wish at [email protected]
