Good morning.  Well a nicer day is upon us here starting off.  Temperatures are sitting at 12.9 C | 55.22 F.  Even got some sunshine showing herself a bit.  Nice to see that.

Forecast For Today:    Unsettled, probably improving though as the day progresses.

Bug Report:  Everything is fine in that department other than a few mosquitoes irritating folks.

Fishing Times:   This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from, 7:30 AM – 1:00 PM.  Then once again from 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM.  I give it a two fish rating out of 4 for catching them.

Around Town:  Tourists are somewhat slow in making an appearance this season.  But weather and economy woes one just isn’t to sure on what they should be doing.  Like staying home and paying off bills or spending time in the north.  For some though it just doesn’t matter.  They figure they deserve a vacation along with some relaxation time and take it.  Kind of think that is the way to go, but I can see others points of view too.

On another our Farmers Market is up and running once again.  You can click the flyer below for all the details.  Enjoy your day my friends and if you get a chance get out and soak up some of that warm sunshine.  GW

Good Morning.  A bit cloudy out there this morning with temperatures sitting at 18.5 C | 65.3 F

Bug Report:  Other than a few mosquitoes pestering folks things are looking good.  Can’t really ask for anything better.

Fishing Times:  Well today the old weather stick is saying that the best time to be out there will be from, 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then a bit later from 2:30 PM – 6:00 PM.  I give it a 2 fish rating out of 4 for catching them.  Not the best but then again one never knows.  Good luck.

Around Town:  Not too much happening these days, a few events happening at the Legion here in town.  Tomorrow morning our Farmers Market will be open for business.  For all the details relating to things happening there click flyer below to enlarge.  Enjoy your day my friends.  

Good morning.  Well had  substantial amount of rain through the night and will get some more throughout the day. Waking up temperatures were sitting at…19.2 C | 66.56 F.

Forecast For Today:    Stormy, much rain.  Could see a bit of sun breaking through the clouds a bit later…if we are lucky.

Fishing Times:    Today the old weather stick is saying that the best time to be out there will be from 8:30 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then once again later on from 2:30 PM – 6:00 PM.  I give it a 1 fish rating out of 4 for catching them.  Will get better as the week progresses.

Bug Report:   A few mosquitoes and deerflies bothering folks but other than that things are looking pretty good. We will always have some sort of annoying bugs as this is where we live.  But the severity of them diminishes some, as the summer months moves forward towards Fall.

Around Town:   Things are quiet these days.  Weather and things slow the tourists down some what.  And can’t say I blame them either.  If one only gets two or three weeks a year holidays, well…they want to try and pick the best weeks to enjoy what they like doing most.  No fun sitting in a cottage not being able to get out and enjoy Nature.  But we still have lots of time yet.  Enjoy your day my friends.  GW

Good morning. Well really nice day here this morning.  Sun is shinning with a light breeze coming in from the North North West.  Temperatures are just perfect sitting at 20.8 C | 69.44 F.  No humidity to speak of, what could be better.  But things might change in a bit.

Forecast For Today:    Stormy, much rain as the day progresses and into tonight.  Not that we really need it.

Bug Report:  With the cool, dryer weather mosquitoes have died down some.  Deer flies are a bit annoying to some that live in the bush areas.  That covers most of Port Loring.  But all and all not so bad.  One can put up with them now.

Fishing Times:  Well today is the day for bringing them into the boat. Times to be out there will be from 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM.  Then again from 12:30 PM – 4:00 PM.  Today I give it a 4 fish rating out of 4 for catching them.  All signs relating to nature is saying it will be a perfect day for catching them.  Until the rain moves in if it does.  So good luck, no reason for not catching them today.  Bait I recommend is worms on the end of a coloured lure.

Around Town:  Quiet around our small community this morning.  Folks are out and about heading off to their place of worship. For myself I find my front porch or back porch does about the same for me, in bringing ones mind back to reality. But it is up to each individually on what road they decide to choose.  Nothing is more soothing to me than to sit out and look at my gardens surrounded by Mother Nature.  Enjoy your day my friends.  GW

In The News:  Went to town yesterday as had to stop by Ford for them to check our new vehicle over.  Got a shuttle to the North Bay Mall and wife and I had lunch there while waiting for our car to be fixed up.  While there met quite a few folks, that read my columns.  Always nice to chat to folks.  Also seen Jim from our landfill here in Port Loring and we chatted for a bit.  Found out his wife was in the hospital.  My wife and I would like to wish her a speedy recovery.  Nothing worse than being laid up with health related problems.  On another note I did notice that they fixed up Lakeshore Drive in North Bay to where it is drivable once again.  There were so many pot holes that I dreaded driving on it.  Lot nicer now.  Also noticed they are working on Castle Street near Food Basic.  Have to say it needed it too.   Lot of needed work finally being done in and around the Bay.  Good to see.  I noticed lots of shoppers out an about picking up items of choice.  Mall was full along with Wall-mart.  Independent grocery store now is back in full swing with folks finally realizing what Wall-mart was doing.  Great to see that some folks can’t be fooled.  Later on visited our son Karl, and went out for supper.  He even bought, how about that?  Great fellow and we are quite proud of him.  So…thinking a tea is in order here now this morning and will then see where the day brings us.  Enjoy your day my friends.  GW
