Starting things off, we are having a wee bit of sunshine this morning. We are also having some real light flurries. We did have another inch of snow overnight. Highway 522 is partially bare, which will make travelling pretty good. But care should be taken. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at -18.2 C | -0.76 F. It will warm up a wee bit as the day moves forward.

On another note, I was kept busy yesterday working on some new added features to my computer. Slowly getting things set up for making better Podcasts and things. My son Karl has been working away behind the scenes, bringing all my wants together. Ha Ha. I wouldn’t have what I have … if it wasn’t for him, as he knows just about everything there is to know about computers, electronics and things like that. He also knows how to fix things, which is a good thing, as old Dad can sure mess things up now and then. Ha Ha.

So with that I am off for a piece of toast that my lovely wife is preparing for me, and will then see what the day has in store. Have a great day! GW

So how you all doing on this snowy Friday Morning? Good I hope. Ruth and I are making out pretty good these days. We find … if we don’t have too many aches and pains getting out of bed, our day is headed in the right direction. Highway 522 is snow covered this morning. We didn’t have any snow overnight to speak of, but we are getting some now. I don’t suspect it will amount to too much, maybe an inch or two. And if we are lucky, we might even see a bit of sunshine later on. Which will brighten up everyone’s day.

The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at -14.1 C | 6.62 F. It will warm up a bit as the day moves forward. It isn’t as cold as it was yesterday, though, which is o k a y with me.

On another note, I kept busy writing up stories yesterday along with feeding our wood furnace. One thing is for certain, I get my exercise going up and down the stairs into the basement to keep the house warm. Which I don’t mind, really, as it also reminds me to bug my lovely wife a bit. I am not sure if you realize this, but women enjoy being bugged by their husband once in a while. Ha Ha.

With that bit of information out of the way. I am off for a bowl of oatmeal this morning, and maybe a cup of tea for a change. I’ll see, I am not a great lover of it. I start off liking it, but then when I sit down to drink it, I don’t. Hmm … perhaps I will just have a coffee and be done with it. I never get tired of it. Take care and have a great day! GW

It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. It has gotten a lot colder, with the temperature getting out of bed sitting at -21.8 C | -7.24 F. We didn’t have any more snow overnight. Which is okay by me, as I have about had it for this year with the snow and ice. I am looking forward to seeing some green instead of white. Highway 522 is mostly bare, but there are some snow and ice covered areas throughout. I suspect the cold weather will carry on through tomorrow. After that, things will start to warm up.

Knowing that, and taking a close look at things, I am thinking that our summer will be a bit above normal with a few very hot days throughout the summer months, along with more rain and storms than we usually have. Now that is what I figure is going to take place. What Nature has planned, we will have to wait and see. Ha Ha. Basically speaking … As our world changes, so does the weather. It’s kind of looking like things are happening as they did thousands of years ago. Back then the North was hot, and the south was cold, now it’s slowly changing back to what it was many years ago. The world technically is no different from us humans. One year we are wearing bell bottom pants, and then we aren’t, and now they are coming back in style once again. Interesting really.

With that I am off for another boiled egg with a piece of toast that my lovely wife is making me, and will then get to work writing up some more stories … which will free up my days come summer. Have a great day. Make it a great day. It’s all up to you!

It’s a cloudy, snowy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at -15.1 C | 4.82 F. It will warm up as the day moves forward, but it will still be cold. Yesterday we had around six inches of ice in some spots, and through the night we had around an inch of light snow. I don’t suspect I will be moving that ice in our driveway. It will have to wait till things warms up. Nature put it there, Nature can take it away. Highway 522 is snow and ice covered throughout. There isn’t too many vehicles travelling today, which is a good thing. Best to stay home if you can till things gets cleaned up.

On another note, yesterday I worked away here on my computer writing up a story for my newspaper columns, along with completing another podcast. Kept me busy and out of my wife’s hair. Today I will do the same, other than maybe picking up the mail. I will have to see how that goes. With that, I am off for a boiled egg and will then get to doing what I think I am going to do. Ha Ha. Have a great day. GW

It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. We are also having some freezing rain mixed with some wet snow. There is a storm warning up for our area until 9:00 PM tonight. Highway 522 is snow and ice covered throughout. My advice if possible stay home today, as by the way things are looking travelling isn’t going to be good. It’s a mess out there at the moment.

For my wife and I we are staying put today, actually we have been staying put for the past week or so now. With the price of gas and things, we don’t feel like going anywhere. In a country that has more natural resources than most other countries, and we are charging our own people outrageous prices. And the thing is our Powers That Be has dug themselves in so deep with spending money they don’t have, it’s only going to get worse. They have it in their minds that they can keep on printing more money, but they are wrong, as you can only do that for so long before it catches up to you. I think the Bubble is about to burst!

Anyway, I think we are going to have a rough road for awhile before it gets better, that is if it does get better.

With that I am off for some waffels that my lovely wife is making me and will then get to work on a story I have in mind. Have a great day. GW
