Good Morning! So how you all doing this morning? Fine I hope. Ruth and I are making out good so fare these days. We have been very busy with a lot of things on our plate going on. All good things though. I didn’t get on here yesterday as our power was out for almost 20 hours. We had to get up at 2:00 AM and drag out our generator and hook it up. I have it set up, so I just flip a switch in the panel box, start the generator, and we are up and running. I don’t have it hooked up to the whole house, just a few things like fridges, freezers, well pump, some lights and things. So we have heat and can cook and things don’t spoil in the freezers and fridge. Works slick. The generator earned its keep yesterday. Seems we have had a lot of outages lately since Hydro One was sold. Strange…. Highway 522 is still busy these days with folks coming in for the hunt. Is it a good thing? Well … all I can say is they are all out in the bush, so they shouldn’t spread the virus around too much. At least you wouldn’t think they would. A lot of my hunter friends are staying home this year not wanting to chance it. I can’t say I blame them. It has been cold here in Port Loring, Canada the past few days. We did have a wee bit of snow. Nothing to write home about. It is supposed to warm up to almost summer weather later on this week and remain with us for a couple of weeks. That will be nice. It could stay that way all winter if I had any say in the matter. LOL On another note I have been quite busy these days getting set up for doing some more podcasts. Just have to bring things together as over summer I forget a lot of things. LOL But it’s coming along. I also have been updating the Blog (Website> Here) I am adding Ruth my lovely wife to it, so she can show off her paintings and some work she has done over the years and what she is doing in the present. Once she gets some time I will start adding things. You will have to take a look see, as she is one fantastic paintings with them over the years being sold all over the world. So … with that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a poached egg with my lovely wife. After that we will see what develops. You just never know. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right when it comes to this virus going around. It is getting worse every day. Not so bad here yet though, which is a good thing. I hope it stays that way. GW

So how you all doing this morning? Good I hope. It’s a never ending battle these days with what is taking place in this old world of ours. But … things will get better if we all hang in there for a bit longer. This morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada it is raining, and cool. It pretty well rained all night long, with some strong winds at times. Temperatures waking up were sitting at 5.5 C | 41.9 F. We should be seeing some sunshine tomorrow. Which will be nice. “So … looking out I suspect I will stay in where it’s warm and dry today.” The good news is, we don’t have to shovel it. LOL. Highway 522 is bare and wet this morning with a few cars moving up and down the highway. Some probably heading off to church when in my eyes, they should be staying at home. But … it’s their life, not mine. Kind of makes me shake my head … with all we now know about this virus, yet some still think it is nothing to be concerned about. At any rate … such is life. On another note, I was glad to see that most of the parents here in town, kept their kids at home this Halloween, as last night it was very quiet. That is a good thing. For my wife and I we watched a good movie and relaxed. The old saying is: Life is what you make it. And for my wife and I we choose to make it exciting and happy when ever possible. LOL With that … I am off for a bowl of porridge and a cup of fresh perked coffee with my lovely wife. After that, I will be working away here on my computer getting ready to do some more PODCASTS. Again … my thanks to all that has gotten in touch with me saying how much they are enjoying them. Keeps me wanting to make more. Have a great November 1st, stay safe and do what’s right. GW

Good Morning! So I missed a couple of days here on the Walters Post LOL The reason for that is … our Internet was down for just about two days. Not much we can do about that. You know, I have to admit I never would have thought the internet would become such an important part of one’s life. At any rate, we are up and running this morning and things look to be working fine. It would be nice if they fixed it, so we here in Port Loring get the speeds that we are paying for. LOL Not very likely, but you never know, with all the new people moving into our area. It has been quite cool the past few days, especially through the night. Temperatures waking up were sitting at 1.4 C | 34.52 F which is a bit warmer than the day before. Highway 522 is still busy with hunting season for Deer almost here. It lasts pretty well for the first two weeks of November. If I might suggest … I would recommend anyone other than hunters to stay out of the bush for a few weeks. You just never know nowadays. LOL On another note, my wife and I did go to North Bay for Groceries yesterday. Picked them up, had lunch, and cup of coffee my wife made before we left and came back home. We didn’t get to see our youngest son Karl this time round, as he is now back to work. He was off for most of the summer with this virus. Is he happy about that? Well that remains to be seen. LOL. I am pretty sure he will be okay as the cases in North Bay are still low … but as parents, it is a concern. Our trip to town was great, as it is nice to get out and breath some different air and see different things. We eat our lunch in our car taking in what others are doing. As I said in other posts … it’s called being nosy. LOL We did see that, almost everyone is wearing a mask when going into the stores and some are even wearing them walking around or driving their cars, which in my mind is a good thing. Can’t take too many precautions these days. Today I will do some work here in the house getting ready some more podcasts. I am a bit excited this year to get back to making them, as I have some new ideas for the shows in mind. What would they be? Well … what would be the fun in telling you? You will have to wait and see. LOL With that, I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife, and will then get doing some things. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right, when it comes to this virus that is in our midst. GW

Good Morning! So how you all doing this morning? Good I hope. Ruth and I are making out okay other than the normal aches and pains caused by the weather and maybe being a touch older. But we are still moving around complaining so things aren’t all that bad. It is a cool morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada this morning with temperatures sitting at -3.1 C | 26.42 F. It’s the coldest morning so far. It will warm up a wee bit as the day progresses but not much. Highway 522 is busy this morning with cars, pick-ups and trucks along with busses taking the kids to school. So in seeing that it seems a lot of folks got out of bed early this morning. For myself and my wife when we wake up we get up. It hasn’t always been that way but where we are at in life now we do what our body lets us do. If anyone says. “It must be nice to sleep in now and then.” We say, “yep it sure is. We earned it too.” LOL. Yesterday we took it easy once again. Both our backs aren’t the greatest so taking it easy for a few days is high up on the lists of things to do. They are getting better slowly. All that outside work getting things ready for winter took a toll on us this year. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife, and then we will see what takes place for the remainder of the day. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right with this virus. It’s not getting any better. But in saying that the vaccines they are working on are getting closer to being had. Have a great day. It all boils down to how you make it. GW

Good Morning! It’s a cold morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. Temperatures waking up were sitting at 0 C | 32 F. It won’t warm up much more than it is now. And it will remain cloudy for most of the day with the possibility of some light flurries. Actually we did have some through the night, but nothing that is staying on the ground. Highway 522 is bare and dry with a few cars and trucks moving from East to West. Where are they going? Your guess is as good as mine. LOL. Hunting season for deer is closing in on us being the first two weeks of November, so I suspect we will have a few more coming into our area in a week or so. Yesterday I took it a bit easy as my old back is acting up, and I will probably be doing the same today. Seems it happens every year about this time. Crazy weather causes all kinds of things to take place. On another note we are burning some oil these days to keep our home warm. It’s not cold enough to burn wood yet, but I suspect it won’t be long before we light it up. The oil is nice as you just set the temperature to what you want and that’s all that is needed. Where wood you have to keep an eye on it and feed it constantly. Not that I mine though as it gives me something to do and keeps me fit going up and down the stairs into the basement. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife, do some chatting, and then we will see what takes place. You never know what can happen throughout a day. Stay safe and do what’s right as I see now we are over the 1000 a day being infected here in Ontario. Sad to see as we could cut that in half if folks would just wear a mask and stop going to places like restaurants, churches, visiting and places like that. I am beginning to lose my faith in some human’s. At any rate not much we can do other than set a … good example and look after ourselves and family. GW

Good Morning! It’s a cool morning here in Port Loring Ontario, Canada. Temperatures were sitting at -0.1 C | 31.82 F. Along with the cooler temperatures we are having our first bit of snow. Just light flurries, but still … it is a sign of what’s to come in the near future. Highway 522 is busy this morning with locals and a few hunters heading over for breakfast. For myself and my wife, we stay out of places like that, at least for now with this virus going around. Which is getting a lot worse. And besides that … there is enough gossip that goes around small towns, without me adding to it. LOL On another note, my vegetable garden is finished now for another year. I did have 4 nice tomatoes left hanging on one vine that wanted to grow. They started showing colour a couple of days ago, so I picked them and got them sitting in the window to ripen. As I said before, I am sure going to miss them toasted tomato sandwiches. Yesterday I moved some things around in the basement for a new freezer we bought. We do have one, but we thought a second small one would be great for meals that my wife is going to make. That way come meal time, she just takes one out and warms it up. Great idea I thought, as that way she has more time to do her painting this winter. If there is a will there is a way they say. She also says it is a way of making use of all the left overs. Freezers are getting hard to find these days with the virus in our midst, but they are out there if you search hard enough. I found ours at Best Buy. They even delivered it right to our door, free of charge. Especially with us living out in the sticks so far. Can’t beat that. Lately we have been buying a lot online. Reason being it saves us going into stores or driving. I kind of like it, as most things are delivered for free these days. But as I always say … TO EACH THEIR OWN. LOL Today I will be working here in the house, as my lovely wife has some things on the go she needs help with. After that, we will take things easy a bit and give our boys a call and see how they are making out. We do that every other day or so. With that, I am off for some oatmeal or Porridge as I like to call it and a cup of fresh ground perked coffee with my lovely wife. I am not sure if you know this? … But Porridge is one of the best foods you can eat for your heart, along with lowering and keeping your blood pressure stable. Eat a bowl of that every day and no medicine is needed. At least for most folks. Take care, stay safe and as I always say … do what’s right when it comes to this virus. Just because some don’t give a DAM! Doesn’t mean you need to follow in their footsteps! GW

Oh! And for all my Podcasts in one place … click on the link below! Once the page opens just scroll down. What could be easier than that? LOL

GEORGE’S PODCASTS

Good Morning! So. How’s everyone doing this morning? Good I hope. Ruth and I are fine so far, staying home when ever possible and doing things around the house here. Truth be told … we are doing as we have always done for most parts, other than travelling or visiting folks and family. But … we stay in touch on the phone or on the computer. I suppose there is something to be said about these high tech gadgets we have today. LOL But in saying that, I am all for things that makes life easier and more interesting. Highway 522 is busy these days with campers and locals moving around. Getting to the point I don’t know to many folks anymore, with them moving here from other towns and cities. Temperatures waking up were somewhat cool sitting at 4.2 C | 39.56 F. Things will warm up a bit as the day moves forward. We did see some sunshine this morning but at the moment it is cloudy. There are warnings up for our area saying: Rain, at times heavy, expected this evening into Friday. Rainfall totals of 30 to 50 mm are expected. Or around 2 inches or so, if you’re using the old scale, which I do. Seems to me that the metric system makes everything sound so bad when it comes to weather. LOL So knowing that, I guess I will finish up some of my outside work this morning. Yesterday I worked in the woodworking shop once again on a few projects I have on the go, and if I get time later on this afternoon will carry on. I enjoy it out there when it’s cold outside. My small wood stove keeps me warm, and being around my tools and equipment always seems to put a smile on my face. We have had frost for the last few nights, but in spite of that I still have around six tomatoes ready to pick which I will do today. I am sure going to miss them, as them store boughten ones have no taste whats so ever. We don’t buy them. But the good part is, my wife did a bunch up this year making them into Chili Sauce and things. So we will be getting into them in the coming days. With that, I am off for some pancakes this morning for a change that my lovely wife is whipping up from scratch. They sure are tasty, let me tell you. After they are put down the old hatch, we will then enjoy our morning cup of fresh perked coffee, and then get into our morning chat. It seems we are never at a loss for something to discuss. I would say that is a sign of a great marriage. LOL Take care, stay safe in these trying times … and do what’s right. GW

Good Morning! It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. We did have some light rain overnight, but I am thinking later on we will see some sunshine. Which will brighten up a weary day. To me, it doesn’t matter what kind of day is upon us if the sun is shinning, I can handle what comes along. Highway 522 is still quiet but in town our small stores are busy. I suspect it is because of all the new folks that have moved into our area fixing and building things. As a matter of fact … I went to Home Hardware yesterday to pick up a few things and say hi to my friend Steve who works there, great fellow and knows everything there is to know about a lot of things. It’s handy as I can walk there as it is right across the street from where we live. While there I noticed lots of people browsing around that I didn’t know or seen before. LOL. Sign of what’s to come I suppose. Some folks like new folks moving in … some don’t. To each, their own I say. To me … it doesn’t matter one way or another at this stage in my life. But I will say this. The price of properties in our area have almost doubled in price since this virus struck and every piece of property that comes on the market for sale, is sold very quickly. That is if the price is reasonable. That is nice to know, but the thing is, if you do sell … where do you go? For myself, I sure wouldn’t move to the cities that’s for sure knowing what we do today. But here again … it’s up to the individual. On another note. Yesterday I did do a full days work in my old woodworking shop on some cabinets. Later on I clipped off the stocks from my garlic I have hanging in the shed. I put them there when I dig them, so they can dry nicely throughout the summer months. Now I will put them upstairs where it is cool, and we should be eating fresh garlic all winter long. We didn’t have as much this summer for some reason. Not sure why that was, and the cloves are small. Hmm … have to give that some thought. Everything else I planted was great. So I guess I shouldn’t complain. Today I will do some more work in the woodworking shop once again. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and will then get to work. Oh! And for those living where it is cool. Just in case you didn’t remember! … Today is the day you bring out your Long Handles to wear. I got mine on and they sure feel good. Actually, my lovely wife ordered a new pair for herself today. So you see … they aren’t just for men, pretty ladies like them too LOL. Although … hers does look a touch sexier than mine. Stay safe and do what’s right.

Good Morning! Cool morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. It did go down quite cool last night, and we had ice in the bird bath. So it looks like winter is edging closer. Still no snow yet though. Temperatures waking up were sitting at 1.9 C | 35.42 F. It will warm up a few degrees as the day progresses. Yesterday our power was off all morning. I decided to hook up my generator we have, which took care of things till it came back on. The good part is that the generator got a good work out, which is needed now and then. Today I have some outside work to do which will keep me busy for most the day. After that I will take it a bit easy as my old back has been talking back to me these days. They say now, the scientists … that weather affecting ones back and joints is a myth. LOL Well let me tell ya. What they are saying is a myth … as my back says different. It happens every fall and lasts for a couple of months till things gets back to a partial normal. LOL Once summer arrives with the warm weather I start to feel a lot better body wise. On another note Highway 522 is slowing down, as most of the hunters are already here and set up in the bush somewhere. Here again … I will leave that kind of thing to the young. I can’t see myself sitting out in the bush at my age, where it is cold and wet for any length of time anymore. LOL With that I am off for a boiled egg with some bacon this morning, that my lovely wife is making for me. She is one great cook. Along with good lookin’! LOL. Take care and stay safe. Things are getting a lot worse out there, with this virus. GW

Good Morning! Well …. to start things off it is a bit cool this morning with temperatures sitting at -1C/30F. It will warm up as the day moves forward. But it will feel cool. Great day for doing some outside work that takes some energy. LOL Highway 522 is still quite busy caused by hunting season. Today I will work away on cleaning up some leaves. I like to mulch them and lay them on top of my vegetable garden and come spring work them in. Makes for some great compost and doesn’t cost me a cent. LOL We also have to clean the eve troughs out and if I have enough left in me I will take a tree down that fell with the wind we had the night before last. It is kind of hung up on another so, that should be interesting. After that I am thinking a rest will be in order for the remainder of the day. With that take care, and I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and bowl of cereal, oatmeal.

Good Morning! It’s a rainy day here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. It has warmed up a wee bit, with temperatures sitting this morning at 57F/14C. It will remain there for most the day. We should see some sunshine a bit later on and into tomorrow, but then back into rain. The long range for the whole of winter, with what I see within Nature we will be having not so cold temperatures, and if the pattern holds we will see a lot of snow. So …. it might pay to get the snowblower or ? Ready to go! I think mine is okay, other than waking it up after it’s summer’s rest? Lazy old thing. But it does fulfill its duty when the time comes. LOL Highway 522 is fairly busy these days with campers, trucks and things moving into the area for this year’s hunt. A lot of new folks are also moving into the area, as I see lots of U Hauls going up and down the highway. But then again, every home within a decent price range that comes up for sale has been sold within weeks. Reason being a lot of folks now realize, that the cities aren’t the place to be. Hmm, I have been saying that for years. On another note my wife and I went to town yesterday and picked up our groceries we apply for online. Then we go in and when we are at the store we call them, and they bring it out to us. We have a couple we go to. Can’t beat that, and we aren’t subjected to the virus if it is around the immediate area. We feel better doing it this way. There are two new cases now in North Bay, with them saying they got it from the community while out shopping. So that tells me there is more out there. It will get a lot worse, before it gets better. But … we did have a good time while there as it feels good to get out and about and breathe some new air. Not good to stay cooped up at home all the time. There will be enough time we have to do that in the coming weeks, once the snow and cold makes it’s way into the area. I am not looking forward to it for most parts. If it stays mild it won’t be so bad, other than pushing snow. LOL While in town we saw our youngest boy Karl in the parking lot of his apartment, from a distance for a bit, then had our lunch my wife packed for us in a nice spot where we could watch people. They call it being … nosy! LOL We then poured ourselves a nice coffee from the thermos we brought with us, and headed on home taking in what is left of the leaves. I have to say they still are quite nice and made our trip just that much nicer. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a toasted pea meal bacon sandwich. I enjoy that from time to time. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right for you. It is getting worse out there. Oh! It might pay to stock up a wee bit with some canned goods, not that I think there will be a shortage, but if we get the snow I am thinking this winter it will be nice to have extra in the house to feed off of. Have a great day. It’s all how you make it. GW

Good Morning! I hope you all are well and had a great Thanksgiving. For my wife and I we are having our Thanksgiving today as yesterday we had a lot of work to be done in the old woodworking shop. Today I will continue on with things but my wife will be making a nice turkey dinner with all the trimmings and homemade cherry pie made from Montmorency Cherries for desert. They are sour so a touch of sugar has to be added. But in saying that, there isn’t any cherries better than them for making pies. We used to grow them many years ago when we had our farms in Niagara. Along with a lot of other things. Today highway 522 is quiet but there has been a lot of campers coming into our area. I suspect it because hunting season is upon us. Good to see folks out and about doing what they love. The good thing is they should be able to keep their distance being out in the bush. LOL Let’s hope they do just that. The weather here in Port Loring, Ontario Canada was really nice yesterday and I suspect once this rain moves through we should be seeing some more of the same for today. Which will make our Thanksgiving Day just that much better. Our boys are staying at their home this year not venturing to our place. We feel it is best to stay apart for the time being with them living in other cities. The crazy part is a lot aren’t doing that, with taking a chance. Also, one contributor to spreading this virus is those that goes to church. Right now in my mind they should stay home. What ever they do there … they can do at home. And hey! It’s not forever. But to each, their own I say. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and will then get to work. GW

Good Morning! We all woke up to sunshine here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. Kind of nice being it is a Thanksgiving weekend. And while I got ya. I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and that, that turkey is the best ever. Well … if you are having a turkey. Turkeys to our family on Thanksgiving is tradition. But with this virus going around things have changed slightly with our two boys staying home and not dropping by. But in saying that we will chat on the phone and things. We will also drop off a turkey dinner for our youngest as he is the closest. So all in all, things will work out. Not much more we can do. For the past two days my wife and I have been so busy I didn’t have a chance to get on here for my morning chat. But should be okay now. I think. LOL you just never know what a day might bring. Highway 522 was quite busy for the past few days. I suspect it because of the Holiday weekend and folks are going here and there picking up things. The LCBO as busy that’s for sure here in our small town. LOL Today I will continue on working in my old woodworking shop on some cabinets. But first I have to clean up my mess I made over the past two days. Small shop doesn’t take much for a feller like me to mess up. But as much as it seems I am complaining … I am not LOL. It’s nice having the equipment to do these things that need doing, or making, or fixing. LOL So with that, I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and a bowl of oatmeal and then will get to work. Stay safe and do what’s right. Especially on this Holiday weekend. The amount of people getting infected right now is staggering. Well over the thousand a day now, if the truth was being told. Hang in there. GW

Good Morning! I hope you all are well. Weather wise it is a bit cloudy here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada this morning. Temperatures have cooled down somewhat sitting at 3.9 C | 39.02 F. It will warm up some though, as the day moves forward. We should see some much-needed sunshine shortly. Actually we should have sunshine now for the rest of this week, and into next week too … with temperatures being quite nice. It’s fine with me as I do enjoy being outside. Highway 522 is slowing down some days, but it has picked up with the hunters coming into our area. It will get busier closing in on November, as that is when deer season opens in our area. On another note, I did do a bit of work outside yesterday, in spite of the rain, and today will finish up a few things that is need of doing. Then I will work in my woodworking shop on a couple orders, and some cabinets for our cottage. So … lots to do these days. With the virus here in Ontario they are saying that the numbers are down a touch, logging in 583 new cases of COVID-19 yesterday and one more death. The only thing with that is, they aren’t doing the testing like they were doing, so them numbers are far from the truth in reality. I would say now … what they say, you should double it for a more accurate account. At any rate … the only thing we can do, or at least for those of us that do care of what is going on, is to take extra precautions for ourselves, friends and immediate family. With that I am off for a piece of toast with some local honey that came from an elderly lady friend of ours near North Bay Ontario. (Dam that honey is good!) LOL and a cup of fresh perked coffee with my lovely wife. Can’t get a much healthier breakfast than that. LOL Other than the bread. But then again … if you make your own bread it’s not so bad. Oh! And remember it is always best to eat something before drinking coffee the first thing in the morning. Even if it is a piece of toast or bagel. Reason being … it is easier on the body. Coffee is good for you in moderation, but there are some precautions you need to take before drinking if first thing in the morning. The afternoon is fine on its own. Food for thought, you could say. Take care my friends. Stay safe and do what’s right. GW

Hi Folks! How you all doing this morning? Good I hope. Ruth and I are fine so far and taking precautions every day in hopes we stay away from the virus. Hard to do with what is going on in the world today, with some people not doing as they should. The thing I see more and more every day, is that a lot of people are saying …. well I am following the government’s guidelines to the letter. I have to say here and now, that not all these Powers That Be’s guidelines are the best. The thing they should be doing is using their own common sense, as everyone has different things going on. At any rate, such is life. But it does make me shake my head in wondering where some folks brains are located. LOL So with that off my mind. We did have some heavy rain through the night here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. Around 2:00 AM we had a heavy down pour that lasted for a half hour. Woke me up. Temperature wise it has warmed up a lot with temperatures sitting at 11F/52C. It will warm up a bit more, as the day moves forward. We will also see some more showers off and on throughout the day. Overnight things will clear and if you do happen to have a few things in your garden yet. It might be a good idea to cover things up a bit. I am going to do that myself, as I do have a few tomatoes and things that are still doing quite well in spite of all the cool wet weather we been having. Tomorrow we should be back to some sunshine, and then things are going to warm up quite a bit. So things are looking pretty good in the days ahead weather wise. Best we enjoy them while they last. LOL With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee, with my lovely wife and maybe, a bowl of Raisin bran. I don’t have it very often, but every so often the urge hits me. LOL Moderation is the key to everything I always say. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right.

Good Morning! I hope you all are well. Ruth and I are doing okay so far. This morning we are in the midst of some clouds here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada, but it isn’t as cold. We could see some light rain off and on throughout the day. If lucky we might see a touch of sunshine off and on too. But for most parts it is looking like rain for today and tomorrow. Highway 522 is quiet this morning with just locals moving around. Yesterday we went to town to pick up a new pair of boots for my wife, as hers I don’t think would make it through another winter. LOL Man are things expensive these days. Seems it takes no effort at all to spend a $100.00 or more these days. So did that and picked up our grocery order that they brought to our car. Makes it nice, as that way we don’t have to go inside the store and take a chance on catching that virus. Every bit of precaution is a help. After picking up our groceries we had our lunch in the car, along with a coffee my wife brought with us, and then headed on home. We did see our son and talked to him outside for a few minutes. He was picking up his groceries at the same time we were. Couldn’t have planned it any better. LOL On another note the trip to town was nice seeing all the leaves in full colour. A lot have dropped though, and I suspect they will be all gone in another week Today I will get back to doing some work in my old woodworking shop. My wife is going to make a pumpkin pie with our pumpkins we grew this summer and if she has enough time she said she is going to make an apple pie with some fresh Cortland Apples we bought while in town yesterday. So that should be a nice treat for tonight. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a piece of toast with that fresh honey we bought the other day. With my lovely wife. It seems that honey is addicting as coffee is these days LOL. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right. GW

Good Morning! Well … it’s a foggy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. We did have a wee bit of rain through the night, and early this morning on the rooftops we had a touch of frost. I kind of didn’t want that as I do still have a few tomatoes ripening on the vines. But in saying that … I suspect they made out okay. Temperatures waking up were sitting at 0.9 C | 33.62 F. It will warm up some, and we should see some sunshine once this fog is burned off. Then back to rain for tomorrow … but after that, things are looking pretty good, with sunshine for the remainder of the week. Which will make things nice for finishing up some outside work I have in mind. Yesterday I worked in the woodworking shop all day on some new projects for the cottage, which kept me busy. Today my wife and I have some things to do inside and once that if finished up … we might get a bit of front porch sittin’ in with a drink or two. Highway 522 is slow these days with mostly locals moving around. As I say … I am not sure where they go all the time as we only have three stores in town LOL. Oh well, it’s good to see them out and about. As long as they do what they are supposed to health wise for themselves and others. With that … I am off for my fresh honey and toast and a cup of homemade perked coffee with my lovely wife. That honey tasted so good yesterday, I figured I would have it again this morning. LOL Good for you too. In moderation of course. Take care and stay safe.
