Bug Report:  Things are really nice out there.  One can do pretty well anything they choose to do without being bothered.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 was quite busy there for a day or so.  This morning it is quiet.  Will pick up a touch later on I suspect with the Cornfest taking place in Arnstein Ontario.  Highway 11 and 69 are quite busy these days heading south.  Also there has been a few sightings of critters crossing Highway 522 heading towards 69, so if out and about care should be taken.  Travelling will be good today.

Around Town:  Well the heat once again has been taking toll on the plants and things.  Sure a hard summer for growing things.  I am surprised though at how nice my tomatoes are.  Taste is excellent with one wanting more. A few days ago I planted another row of spinach for fall eating with sprouts showing off already.  On another note today is our Cornfest which should make for some nice entertainment.  Weather wise it will be quite nice.  Great thing about it most of the event will be under cover which will make it just that much more inviting, especially with this heat.  For all the information related to this event click flyer below. I would also like to thank all those that have been in touch letting me know how much they enjoy the Blog.  Makes it all worth while.  With that enjoy your day, don’t get to hot and make it a great day.  Inquiries: [email protected]

Good Morning:  Hoping every one is feeling good this morning:  Temperatures waking up were sitting at 18.7 C | 65.66 F.

Forecast For Today:  Chance of a shower but for most parts sunshine. Will be quite warm with lots of humidity.  The remainder of the week will be quite warm also with lots of sunshine. Good to see my forecast a month ago being right on the money.  Nature tells all if one pays attention.  Enjoy!

Bug Report:  Quite nice out there actually.  Few mosquitoes making an appearance here and there.  Other than that one can do pretty well what they want outside these days without being annoyed.

Highway Report:  Highway 522 is quiet this morning. Few critters roaming around here and there. Care should be taken if out and about.  Travelling will be good today.

Around Town: Quiet is about all one can say in regards to business. On my part I have been steadily bringing in firewood.  I found it to be extra dry this year, caused by the hot weather we had there for a few weeks. Should make for some nice burning this coming winter. Gardens are still doing quite well.  Tomatoes are in abundance with my lovely wife doing them up in different dishes each day for winter.  With that will head  off for my morning tea.  Orange pekoe this morning with a touch of dandelion is our preference.  Enjoy your day to the fullest.  Inquiries:  [email protected]
