What’s happening? November 2/2021

Good Morning! So how you all doing this morning? Good I hope. Ruth and I are so, so with a few issues, mostly caused by getting a touch older. But we are dealing with them on a daily basis. My theory is, figure out the problem, then figure out the cause, then do something about it, naturally if possible. And then go from there. On another note it has been cool for the past couple mornings with the temperature this morning sitting at … -0.8 C | 30.56 F. It will warm up a bit as the day progresses. We could see a shower or some light snow off and on today. Highway 522 is busy but not too busy as most of the hunters are back in the bush. It will pick up a wee bit near the end of the week when they all get tired of being out in the cold. LOL Yesterday I didn’t do too much other than a few things around the house. I did rake a few leaves and dug out the remainder of my kale that I had left to grow in our vegetable garden. It was about done for this year. Today I will work away on another Podcast and a story I have in mind for the Newspapers I write for. Which will keep my mind occupied for most of the day. With that I am off for my morning bowl of oatmeal and will then see what develops. Other than what I have planned. Have a great day, take care and stay safe. GW

What’s happening? Oct. 30/2021

Good Morning! It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. It isn’t that cold this morning, with the temperature getting out of bed sitting at 5.7 C | 42.26 F. It will warm up a touch more as the day progresses. No one can complain about the weather for the past few days, that’s for sure. My lovely wife and I have sat outside enjoying our afternoon coffee now for the past few days. We might be able to do it again today, as we should see some sunshine later on in the day. Let’s hope things work out. Highway 522 is still very busy, as is the LCBO. It’s the busiest store in town, LOL. On another note, things are starting to dry out around our home, as it sure has been wet. My vegetable garden is more like a lake than a garden these past few weeks, LOL. But things dry up fast in this country, with the soil being rocky and sandy. The grass is still growing, but it also is slowing down a bit. I won’t be cutting it anymore this year. The leaves on the trees are all but gone. There are a few holdouts, like the Silver Birch and the Silver Maples, along with the Oak trees. They seem to hold onto their leaves till the last minute. I guess they hate to see the summer end. Can’t say I blame them. Yesterday I worked on a new podcast along with some stories for my columns I write for in the newspapers. This morning I will do the same and then this afternoon when the sun comes around to our front porch we will be sitting outside taking in some much-needed Vitamin D3. I would think living in this part of Ontario that almost everyone is very low in vitamin D. Without it, we open the door to all kinds of virus’s and things. So it would pay to take a good supplement of the D Vitamin every day. Around a 1000 IU should do it. With that I am off for my morning bowl of oatmeal and will then see what the day has in store. You never know. Take care and stay safe. GW

What’s happening? Oct. 28/2021

Good Morning! It’s another sunny morning for us here in Port Loring, Ontario. The temperature this morning was cool, sitting at -0.3 C | 31.46 F. It’s the first morning that we have had ice in our bird bath. I guess I had better put it away for winter. It will warm up as the day moves forward. Actually … my lovely wife and I sat out on our front porch yesterday and enjoyed our coffee. Which was quite nice. And by the looks of things, we might be able to do it again today. Might as well take advantage of this weather as long as it lasts. Highway 522 is still busy these days, and I suspect it will continue to be busy for the next few weeks. Once the snow hits, things will slow down drastically. Yesterday, I worked away on a podcast and a few stories, along with trying to fix a few things that are happening with my wife’s computer. No luck. So … I will drop it off at my son’s place in North Bay in a few days for him to fix. We are lucky to have a feller that can do these things. Today I have a few things to move around outside, so best get at that before the snow flies. Easy to do now. With that I am off for my morning bowl of cereal and a cup of fresh perked coffee. Just the smell of it gets me motivated, LOL, Have a great day and stay safe. This virus hasn’t gone anywhere, it’s still lurking in the wings, patently waiting for its next victim.

What’s happening? Oct. 27/2021

Good Morning! Well … for a change here in Port Loring we are having some sunshine. There will be a few clouds mixed in with the sunshine, which truth be told makes it just that much nicer. It’s all in how you look at things. It’s like the shadows that are caused by the sunshine shinning through the trees. My lovely wife and I can’t get enough of it, as they sure look beautiful. You know, Mother Nature has more to offer us humans than anything else here on this earth. It’s just that most don’t take the time to appreciate what is right in front of them. The reason being, they are too wrapped up with things that in reality aren’t important at all. That old saying; “Take Time To Smell The Roses.” Is sure true. My wife and I sure do. Highway 522 is still very busy with lots of trucks moving around. Lots of construction going on in our area these days. Also, as I stated in other posts, it is Hunting Season in our area, and hunters are coming in from all over. It’s not a good time to be out in the bush. Kind of a shame in one way. But in another way it’s what we human’s do. I don’t begrudge anyone hunting for food. Yesterday I finished up a new podcast for this coming Friday. Today I will start on another. In closing, I would like to thank, all those that have shared a review on other sites relating to my Podcasts. It’s nice to hear that, so many are enjoying them. At first I didn’t know what to expect when I stated these podcasts, but not anymore. I am overwhelmed. I also would like to thank all those that have written, yes written and sent me their letters saying that they are enjoying them. It means a lot. Along with all the phone calls and emails too. I should also mention for those that might be having a problem connecting their Google Home to my Podcasts. I am not sure what happened, but by Saying Hey Google! Play Just One More Story by George Walters sometimes it doesn’t work, for some reason. I am looking into it. But if that doesn’t work, say. Hey Google! Play The Walters Post. That seems to work. When you say that on your Google Home Devise, it plays the last episode. Also, for anyone that doesn’t have a Google Home, if you just go online, and type in “George Walters Podcasts,” there will be numerous sites that will come up that you can listen to them, other than here in my Blog. With that, you all have a great day and stay safe. GW

What’s happening? Oct.26/2021

It’s a cloudy, rainy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, along with it being a touch cool. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at 2.8 C | 37.04 F. It will warm up somewhat as the day progresses. But after today we should be seeing some sunshine. Which will be nice for a change. We have had our share of rain and then some this Fall. The ground is saturated. I am happy I put in my firewood earlier, as it would have been a mess trying to do it now. Seems Nature and me always works together. It gives me signs of what’s to come, and I then act. I think everyone has that ability, it’s that most don’t recognize it. At any rate, it has worked for me for the past 70 some years. Yesterday I worked cleaning up a few things here in the house. Today being so wet, I will work on a podcast along with some new stories for my columns in the newspapers and magazines I write for. I enjoy working away where it is warm this time of year. Especially when the real cold weather starts to enter into the picture. With that I am off for some pancakes that my lovely wife is making for us, in our waffle maker. She has a knack of making them, along with them being down right tasty. Hmm, where is the butter, can’t eat pancakes without lots of real butter. Take care, stay safe. GW
