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

So how you all doing this morning? Good I hope. It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at -12.4 C | 9.68 F. Not too bad, this time of year. But we are heading into March with most of the winter behind us. Which is okay with me as I am ready for some front porch sittin’ in the sunshine.

But in saying that, we could see some more snow later on this afternoon and through the night … and tomorrow we could have a mixed bag of weather. Snow, rain, and freezing rain. So care will have to be taken if out and about. Highway 522 is bare at the moment, with a few icy sections throughout.

Yesterday I wrote up a story and today will do the same. With that, I am off for a bowl of cereal with my lovely wife, and will then see what the day has in store … other than what I have planned. Usually something comes along I am not expecting. Take care and have a great day. GW

Starting things off here in Port Loring, Ontario, we did have a wee bit of sunshine earlier in the day. At the moment though, we are in the midst of a lot of clouds along with some windy conditions. Overnight we had another inch or so of snow. We also had a lot of drifting, which filled in my path to my wood pile. So … I might have to clean that out if I decide to do some work in the old woodworking shop. I did manage to get our driveway and decks cleaned up yesterday from the snow had a couple of days ago. I have to say, it was cold out there with the way the wind was blowing. I was sure glad to be done with it and get inside where it was warm. It was also very slippery under the snow caused by the melting that occurred a few days ago. Instead of walking behind my snow-blower, I was dragged. Ha Ha.

Today I will get back to writing up a story or two for my columns, which should keep me busy for most of the day. And feed our old wood furnace from time to time throughout the day. It’s kind of nice really, as I get kind of stiff from sitting too long, and when I have to go put wood in the furnace things limber up somewhat.

With that bit of information under your hat, that is, if you wear a hat, I am off for a boiled egg and a piece of toast with my lovely wife. Have a great day and stay safe. This virus is still taking its toll on folks. GW
