GOOD Morning. Once again, it looks like we are going to have a nice day here in Port Loring, Ontario. The sun is shinning without hardly any wind at all. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at 11.3 C | 52.34 F. It will warm up nicely as the day moves forward. I suspect the sunshine will remain with us for most of the day. And into tomorrow for that matter. Highway 522 was very busy yesterday with folks moving around. Myself, I worked away on a mower that is giving me some problems and so far haven’t figured things out. I ordered a new part online, so we will see how that goes in a week or so when it comes in. Always something. My wife was also busy working on orders for her paintings and signs, along with all the other things she does around and in the house. She is a hardworking woman for sure. But that is how we got to where we are today. Today, I will take things a bit easy. I have been feeling a bit tired for the past two days. I think some front porch sittin’ is in order. With that I am off for some pancakes for breakfast that my lovely wife is making me and will then see what the day has in store, other than what I have planned. Oh, and don’t forget to catch my new podcast that will be live at 9:00 AM this morning. Take care and stay safe. GW

Fishing Times: Today my old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there fishing will be between 10:00 AM and 12:30 PM and then again from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM. It should be a pretty good day for catching a few. I give it a 4-Star Rating out of 5 for catching a few. Good Luck!

Good Morning. It’s a really nice looking day here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. The sun is showing off and the temperature is actually quite nice, sitting at 15.3 C | 59.54 F. It will warm up a lot as the day moves forward. Highway 522 has gotten busy with a few hunters moving into the area along with a new batch of tourists. This is the time for families without children, or so it seems. It is a nice time of year. Yesterday, my wife and I got our mowing out of the way. Took us a few hours, but it is worth it when all said and done. Now we can do some front porch sittin; and take in what nature all around us has to offer. Today I am going to work on one of my mowers, as once again it is in need of some repairs. I have to say, they sure don’t last as long as they used to. My old ones lasted twenty years or more with just a few minor repairs, these today are shot after two years or less. Most are just junk. At any rate, not much we can do, as that is what our country has become. We are a leader in buying ……. With that I am off for my morning bowl of cereal with my lovely wife and will then see what I can do about fixing a few things. It would be nice if we had one day without something breaking down, LOL Take care and stay safe, the numbers of infections are rising once again here in Ontario. GW

Good Morning! Starting things off, it is sunny here in Port Loring, Ontario this morning. It is a touch cool, with the temperature getting out of bed sitting at9.3 C | 48.74 F. It will warm up nicely as the day moves forward. I would say we are going to have almost perfect weather for the next 5 or 6 days. So if you’re anything like I am, enjoying the outdoors, this is the time to do it. I still have to clean, our vegetable gardens and dig our potatoes, so I can till it up for the winter. But there is still lots of time for that. Once that is all done up, I will get to planing our garlic for next year. It should be nice this year, as I have my old heavy Rotavator fixed up, ready to go. I don’t use it that often, but when I need it, it does a great job. Yesterday, I finished up bringing in our wood for winter. So that is another thing off my mind. I surprised myself and did it in one and a half days instead of three this year. I sure enjoy seeing it piled nicely in the basement. I have always stated that if you have lots of food, and you are warm, you’re all set for what ever comes your way. That is one thing that I have always done throughout my life. No one ever went hungry or got cold in our family. We might have done without a few other things, but never from hunger or being cold. Today is mowing day for my wife and I and I will get at that this afternoon as I have some things lined up for this morning. Which will work out nicely as the grass is really wet with the dew we had last night. On another note, I will be starting up my PodCasts next week, and will add a new one every Saturday Morning. I eased off through the summer months as my wife and I had a lot of things on the go. Now that things are easing off a bit, I will get back to it. I have had so many Emails wanting to know if and when I will start them up again. So now you know, LOL. Thanks for being so patient. With that I am off once again for my morning bowl of oatmeal and will then get to work. Take care and stay safe. The number of infections has dropped a bit yesterday, so let’s hope that is the trend for now on. Wouldn’t that be nice. And it will if we all do what we are supposed to be doing, like wearing our mask, keeping our distance and enjoying your home instead of going out to the bars and places like that, LOL. GW

Good Morning. It’s a nice looking day here in Port Loring, Ontario. Especially with the sunshine. The temperature getting out of bed was sitting at 10.9 C | 51.62 F. It will warm up as the day moves forward. And by the looks of things we should be having some sunshine now for the next week or so. The temperatures will also remain quite nice. Highway 522 was fairly busy yesterday, mostly with trucks working in our area. But there were a lot of cars, trucks and campers too. Yesterday I worked away bringing in our firewood for winter. I surprised myself and got most of it all in. I will easily finish it this morning, that is … if my old body holds up, LOL. So far, so good. Amazing really with all the work that my lovely wife and I have done this summer. It’s hard to believe I am able to do what I am doing being the age I am. I guess it all boils down with what is in one’s mind and eating healthy. Let’s hope it keeps up the good work. This morning, I started the oil furnace for the first time. Mainly to see if it still works, and to take out the dampness from the house. With that humid weather we had from them storms coming up from the south, the old house was pretty damp. It seems to be working good so far. The tornado watch we had yesterday didn’t amount to anything in our area. Which is a good thing, as we sure don’t need them. On another note, my vegetable gardens are about had it for this year. My wife has been steadily putting things into the freezer for later use in between her painting orders and other things. I have to say, we had a very good crop of peppers this year. We also had a good crop of potatoes, which will sure be nice this winter. I found last year the potatoes in the stores weren’t very good. Most of every bag we bought we had to throw away. Actually, it was that way for a good number of items. The thing is we paid good money for them and to throw them away … well let’s just say it isn’t good. That was the reason I decided to grow my own this year. I would think we will have around three bushels or so. I haven’t dug them yet, as I like to leave them in the ground as long as I can. That way, they will last for most of the winter in our basement. The thing is you have to keep them where it is dark leaving some dirt on them, in the open, where the air can get around them, and it should be cool where you store them. With that bit of information under your hat, I am off for my morning bowl of oatmeal with my lovely wife, and then I will get to work. I can’t wait to get outside and breath in some of our northern air. Take care and stay safe. So far here in Ontario we are doing pretty good with this virus that is among us. Let’s hope we keep it up. I think the reason is that we live in a country that the people live quite a way apart. In other countries, they are packed in like sardines. I hope we never become like them!!! Anyway take care. GW

Fishing Times: This morning, my old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there with your line in the water will be between 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM. I give it a 1-Star Rating out of 5 for catching a few. Things will get better later on in the week. Good Luck!
