Morning Chat April 2/2021

Good Morning! It’s a sunny day here in Port Loring Ontario, It is a bit cool though with the temperature sitting at -6.3 C | 20.66 F. It will warm up a wee bit as the day moves forward. And by the looks of things now, it will start to warm up a lot come Sunday, and all next week is looking pretty nice too. I am thinking my wife and I will be doing some front porch sittin in the coming days. We … also have a big job to do outside getting ready for an outside shower and things, so I might get into that if I feel up to it. I would like to get a lot of it done before the blackflies enter into the picture. Then when they arrive I will work on installing a new wood stove we bought in the cottage, where I can get away from them blood sucking parasites. So lots to do. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning, which will make travelling good, but it’s best if you stay home. I see they have a lock-down for all of Ontario starting tomorrow. Which is a good thing, and I have been saying it all along. IN doing so it will give folks time to get the vaccine, along with bringing down the numbers, as it is getting real bad with folks getting sick, and the death rate is rising a lot too. The problem was that if you close one town down, and not the rest, people just up and go to the towns or cities that aren’t locked down, which in turn spreads it even more. I also feel that they should have closed down a lot more stores like all the churches along with the schools. The Bottom line is, that a lot of people don’t care, and they won’t care … until they become sick, or someone in their family becomes sick or? What a shame that is. At any rate … I don’t want to get to thinking on them things today. Why? Well … it’s my birthday, and all I want to think on today is good things. You know … I had a feller call me yesterday to wish me a Happy Birthday, and he went on to say. You don’t look that old! I thanked him, and then I got to thinking about that statement. And you know what? I am still thinking about that statement LOL Have a great day and stay safe. GW

Happy Birthday, George!!

Morning Chat March 31/2021

Good Morning! Last day of the month, and it’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario. It is a touch cool with the temperature sitting at 3.1 C | 37.58 F. It will remain cool for another couple of days, and then things will start to warm up to where a feller or gal would enjoy being outside. If lucky these clouds should start to move out of our area around lunch, and maybe, we might see some sunshine. Got my fingers crossed. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning in-spite of the showers we had overnight. Yesterday I stayed in for most of the day with the weather being so windy and things. I was planning on some front porch sittin’ but that wind kind of changed our minds. So we had our afternoon coffee inside chatting. If there is one thing my wife and I enjoy, and do well … it’s chatting. We always seem to have an endless supply of topics. And you know! They are all interesting too LOL LOL. I chalk it up to being married for 50 Years. Actually … we both just had our 50th year anniversary of being married, the day before yesterday. We sure have been a through a lot together. I did finish up another Podcast and will work on another today. I enjoy doing them for folks, and it does keep the old mind off things that are upsetting. Especially these days. On another note, we have still been burning wood in our wood furnace. I suspect I will light it again this morning. When not burning wood we burn oil. I have to admit … that I am getting a touch lazy in that department, as this winter I burned wood all day, and then I let the oil furnace come on through the night. Kind of nice, as we don’t have to get up. On the real cold nights I do. So with that bit of information out in the open, I am off for my morning bowl of cereal with my lovely wife, and will then see what develops. You just never know. Take care of yourselves and stay safe. GW

Good Morning! It’s a sunny day here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. It is a touch cool though, with the temperature getting out of bed sitting at3 C | 37.4 F. It will warm up a lot as the day progresses. If lucky … we should be able to get some front porch sittin’, which would sure be nice. Looking forward to it. The warm temperatures will only remain with us today though, and then things will begin to cool back down for around four days before it starts to warm back up. Typical weather for our area this time of year. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning, so travelling will be good. That is if you have to go anywhere. On another note yesterday I worked away here on a podcast and finished it. I like to get them stored up, so come summer I don’t have to be sitting inside the house. I get enough of that all winter. And this year … my wife and I have a lot of outside work to do. It’s going to be a busy year for us. But that is okay, as it keeps us at home, and our minds active. Once the vaccines are readily available, we will have a look at them. My wife and I will only be willing to take the Pfizer Inc with BioNTech SE and Moderna Vaccines. There is just to many issues going on with the AstraZeneca Vaccine for us to feel comfortable taking it. First they said that the old shouldn’t be taking it, then they say the young shouldn’t be taking it and just the old. And now there is the possibility of blood clots. There is too much up in the air right now, and I have a gut instinct telling me that my wife and I should wait. I know they say that the risk outweighs the alternative, but I am not so sure about that statement. We are taking precautions to the fullest and will continue to do so for now. A few more months will tell a lot. You do what you feel is right. With that I am off for my morning bowl of cereal with my lovely wife, and will then see what mischief I can get into. Or so my wife says. Life is good in a lot of ways. Take care and stay safe, the virus is getting a lot worse at the moment here in Ontario. GW

Good Morning! It’s a really nice day here in Port Loring, Ontario. Other than the 2 inches of snow we had overnight. But the sun is shinning, which makes things at the very least look nice outside. Highway 522 is mostly bare, but there are some icy sections here and there. Yesterday was a heck of a day, rain for most of the day, changing to ice, and then to snow through the night. Winter isn’t done with us yet. But the long range is looking a lot better, once we get past Wednesday of this week. On another note, I didn’t do too much yesterday, kind of took it easy. I finished up another podcast and will start another today, being it is such a cold snowy day. With that I am off for my breakfast with my lovely wife and will then see what the day has in store. Take care and stay safe. This virus is getting much worse here in Ontario. Well over 2000 a day now, with around 10-20 dying every day. Caused by opening things back up and some not doing what they should be doing. Simple as that. It all boils down to money in my eyes. It is the ruling figure these days.

Good Morning! It’s a cloudy rainy day here in Port Loring, Ontario. We didn’t have the rain they forecasted overnight, but we are getting some this morning. They do still have warnings up for our area for heavy rain. But that is just one more reason why I hate the metric system. An example would be like, where they are saying. We could see up to ….. 25 mm of rain. They make it sound like we are going to get a lot, when in reality, if you went by the old scale, you would see right away that we would only be getting, not even an inch. Just one more way of corrupting ones mind. That’s my feeling on the subject, you are entitled to yours. LOL Highway 522 is wet this morning, and we could see some icy sections later on today if things cool down a touch more than it is now. Maybe some wet snow too, so care should be taken if out and about. Yesterday I worked here on another Podcast for all those that keep on asking for more. Along with the new listeners that are entering into the picture every day. In doing so it breaks up my day and keeps my mind fresh. So with that information out in the open, I am now off for my morning bowl of cereal with my lovely wife, and will then see what the day has in store for me. Other than what I am planning. You just never know. Take care and stay safe.
