Good Morning:   Well another beauty of a day is upon us.  Sun is up early with hardly a cloud intervening with its choice to be shown.  Temperatures were a touch cool waking up sitting at…7 C | 44.6 F.

Weather Forecast For Today:    Becoming fine, with lots of sunshine and temperatures rising up to near 22 C / 70 F.  Should be no one complaining about the weather in our area today.

Fishing Times:   This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM.  Then once again from 3:00 PM – 5:30 PM.  I give it a 3 fish rating out of 4 for catching them today.

Around Town:  Very quiet around town with folks taking life easy.  Great way to enjoy life to say the least.  Also would like to say that this is a perfect time to till up the veggie garden, around the items that are still growing.  I place my items in certain areas just for this reason, so come fall I don’t have to disturb them when I get to tilling up things.  I like to till the garden now, especially since it is going to be sunny and warm.  As once done it has a chance to dry out a touch.  After a few weeks of exposing the soil to the sun, letting it soak up all its energy I then get to planting my garlic for next spring.  Some plant in the early spring pertaining to garlic, but I like to plant mine in the fall just before the ground freezes.  Come early next summer one then will be able to enjoy what has been growing beneath the soil all winter long, soaking up all the energy and minerals needed to keep the body healthy and strong.   So my friends take advantage of the warm weather and sunshine, it is a gift this time of year and a gift is meant to be enjoyed.

Good Morning:  Well a bit cool this morning.  Waking up temperatures were sitting at…  4.9 C | 40.82 F.

Forecast For Today:   Showery early, improving as the day moves forward.  After today things will warm up to near 20 C / 70 F with lots of sunshine.  We should see a bit of sunshine today also once the clouds moves out.

Bug Report:  None. This report will be removed after today till next spring.

Fishing Times:    This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then again from 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM.  I give it a 2 fish rating out of 4 for catching them this morning and a 3 fish rating out of 4 this afternoon.

Around Town:  Monday morning and folks are out and about some.  Few trucks moving up and down Highway 522 heading off to their place of work.  Today I will finish up cleaning out the vegetable gardens and bring in what is left for our table.  Once done that I will let it dry up a touch and get to tilling it up for winter. Like it to air well so I can get to planting my garlic, which will come up next spring.  One bulb of garlic can give you up to six bulbs or more next spring.  Just break the bulb apart and put one clove in each hole which should be about two inches deep, top facing up.  Cover it up and that’s it.  Can’t get much simpler than that and it is so….good for you. Remember though for good results plant our own Ontario Organic Garlic, not the ones from other countries.   So my friends, enjoy your day and get outside all you can this week, as sunshine will be in abundance.

Good Morning:   Well sunny morning here. A touch cool but not so bad.  Temperatures waking up were sitting at…10.5 C | 50.9 F.

Forecast For Port Loring:  Fairly fine, possible showers early. Tomorrow and Friday should be nice and sunny.  So some nice looking weather ahead for a couple days.

Bug Report:  None to report, things are all good in that department.

Fishing Times;   This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then once again a bit later from..2:30 PM – 4:00 PM.

Around Town:  Not to much to report here this morning.  Lots of construction happening with roads being done up before the snow is upon us.  Stores have slowed down some with sales which is to be expected. Our small gallery is still doing well with orders coming in daily and the wife’s paintings making an impression on folks along with sales.  On another note the vegetable gardens will be in need of cleaning up soon once the first big frost hits our area.  So far we have been lucky for most parts.  Cooler weather though does slow down most items.  Spinach, Kale and Celery like the cool weather though, so they will hold on for a few more weeks an even longer if you cover them at nights to protect them from the frost.  Tomatoes also will hold their own if covered.  Mine are pretty well done for the season, but I will say they outdid themselves this year for quality and quantity.   With the weather being so cold and wet all summer we had an ample supply of everything in our gardens.  So no complaints.  Today I will be picking the rest of our corn and then digging out the stalks which the wife use for decoration around our grounds.  Sure looks nice when all said an done. Nothing goes to wast. So my friends, enjoy your day, try your best to soak up some of that sunshine for the next couple days, as it will maintain your health into the coming winter and then some.

Good morning:  Well kind of a gloomy looking day out there this morning.  Temperature was a bit cool waking up, saying…7.1 C | 44.78 F.  Will warm up a wee bit later on, remaining cool today though.

Forecast For Port Loring:    Rather unsettled clearing later.  Barometer is Rising Very Rapidly which is a good sign.  So will have to see what the day brings our way.

Bug Report:   Nothing to report here in this department.  Seems they are headed off to warmer climates.  Which is OK by me.

Fishing Times:  Today the old weather stick is saying that the best time to be out there will be from…11:00 AM – 3:30 PM.  I give it a 1 fish rating out of 4 for catching them.  I would think a rain coat would be an item one wouldn’t want to forget if out there today.

Around Town:  Lots of trucks moving up and own our highway with road work being done everywhere these days.  But has to be done.  While the weather was nice I took a few pictures of some flowers and bushes we have on our property.  Seemed they were just asking for their picture to be taken.  So thought I would share them with you.  Hope it brightens up your day.   Have a great day.  Click Pictures to Enlarge.

Good Morning:  Well once again it is cloudy and damp.  But things will improve as most things do in life when given time.  Waking up this morning temperatures were sitting at..10.7 C | 51.26 F.

Forecast For Today:     Showery early,  then improving.  If things goes to plan we should see some sunshine later on today and in to tomorrow.  Also things will warm up some.  Almost a whole week of no sunshine.  Doesn’t make for a happy camper, one could say.

Bug Report:    None to speak of out there in this weather.  Will start to see a few mosquitoes once the sun moves upon us later but none in great amounts.

Fishing Times:  This morning taking all things into consideration, including the old weather stick, it is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 7:00 AM – 10:30 AM.  Then a bit later from 3:30 PM – 6:30 PM.  I give it a 1 fish rating out of 4 for catching them this morning and a 2 fish rating out of 4 this afternoon.  Good luck.

Around Town:  Folks have refrained from moving around for a bit, weather being such as it is. But once the sun comes out things will get back to its norm.   Veggie garden is sure in need of sunshine.  Tomatoes though are ripening fast on the vine.  This year being so wet I left them on to ripen to their fullest potential before picking and preserving.  In-spite of the rain and cloudy sky’s we will still have a great crop, which was brought on from our sunny sky’s earlier in the month.  My lovely wife tries to do up between sixty and a hundred jars a year.  Seems to be the magic number, which lasts a family of 4 for one season.  Quart jars that is.  Other items are doing quite well too.  Pumpkins are in abundance as our squash.  English cucumbers are being eaten daily and relish is in the jars waiting till winter arrives to sample.  Not that I didn’t have a taste or two already.  Corn is climbing to ten feet or better with cobs hanging, just a waiting for the sunshine to fill them with flavour.  So all and all my friends, things are turning out great.  Seems Mother Nature has a way of looking after herself and us humans no matter what the weather brings upon us.  Enjoy your day my friends.

Good Morning:   Well not a bad day by the looks of things waking up.  Sun was shinning and hardly a cloud in the sky.  A touch cool but nice with temperatures sitting at…12.2 C | 53.96 F.

Forecast For Today:  Fairly fine, possible showers early.  Things will warm up some as the day progresses and humidity will be not so bad. Wind has died down to almost nil thus far this morning. So all and all a great day.

Bug Report:   Great day to do almost anything outside, other than a few mosquitoes and deerflies bugging you once in awhile.  But not so bad that one can’t enjoy mother nature to the fullest.  Great time to go camping, hiking, fishing or what ever you choose to do.  Enjoy the summer my friends it is moving on quite quickly.

Fishing Times:  For those wanting to do some fishing today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 7:30 AM – 11:00 AM.  Then again from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM and one more time from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM.  I give it a 2 fish rating out of 4 for catching them this morning.  A 3 fish rating out of 4 for catching them this afternoon and a 4 fish rating for catching them shortly after supper. As you can see things are improving as the day progresses.  Today I recommend a Hula Popper 3/16 ounce in weight with small size hooks. Once all hooked up, cast to within a foot or two of the shore line or a touch closer to lilly pads, stumps or other obstructions, as usually that is where the big ones are lurking.  Soon as the Popper hits the water about two seconds later give it a quick tug, You will hear it pop. Then slowly bring it in. If no luck try again.  If still no luck after ten or fifteen minutes, move on to another spot. No use wasting time in a spot where they aren’t. Oh and no added weight to your line, just the Hula Popper on its own is sufficient.   Click Picture To Enlarge.  The picture is a just a suggestion in colour, myself I would go for one a bit on the greener side.  Good luck.

Around Town:   Yesterday with the market taking place I found our store quite busy with sales.  Was a great day for sure with folks out an about doing what they enjoy.  Of course, weather could have been a touch warmer, but by the end of the day things did just that.  Still not as busy as it has been in the past years, but not so bad that one can complain.  As if that would do any good.  So my friends I am off to thin out my tomatoes, as with all the rainy weather they have taken to growing tops.  If not thinned, the tomato crop will be immensely reduced.  We love tomatoes, so can’t let that happen.  Only takes a half a day and well worth the work one has to put into it.  Enjoy your day my friends.

Good morning.  Well waking up temperatures were a bit cool sitting at: 11.1 C | 51.98 F.  But some sun is showing itself so things will warm up in a bit.

Forecast For Today:  Fairly fine, possible showers early.

Bug Report:  Pretty good out there these past few days all things taken into consideration.  Could say we are at our normal cycle for the time of year.

Fishing Times:    Today the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from;  10:30 AM – 12:30 PM.  Then a bit later from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM.  I give it  1 fish rating out of 4 for catching them.  Not the best but things will improve in the next few days.

Around Town:  Well with the rain ending and sun making her appearance folks will also get out more doing what comes naturally.  Seems that when the sky’s are gloomy so are us humans.  Why is that? Well simple really, we humans come from energy which is all around us, energy comes from the sun.  No sun, well….we aren’t at our best.  The rain though along with good soil sure got my gardens to growing this year. I took a few pictures to show you.  Notice how shiny the leaves are showing off their health.  I have to say it is about the best year we ever had for growing things.  Click Pictures to Enlarge and have a great day.
