Good Morning! We are in the midst of some clouds here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada this morning with a bit of sunshine peeking through now and then. The hot weather we have seen for the past two days should be behind us for a few days. Actually it will get quite cool in the evening hours for the next three days. I am keeping a close eye on that, as Saturday and Sunday night, it is calling for temperatures to drop down to 35 F/ 2C. So if that happens there is a chance of some frost. Which won’t be good for the vegetable gardens. All depends on the cloud cover on them nights. Temperatures this morning were sitting at 20.4 C | 68.72 F. It will warm up some as the day moves forward but not as hot as it got yesterday. Which is okay by me, as I don’t like the really hot days. But it did help eliminate a few of them black-flies. The only issue with the hot humid weather is it brings on the skeeters Ha ha. Sheesh can’t win. But things will eventually get better as the summer moves closer. Highway 522 is quiet this morning but it is early. I suspect it will pick up as the day moves ahead. Especially nearing the weekend as that is party time for a lot of folks. LOL. Myself every day is the same not one any better than the next. I enjoy them all. Today I will work on my old weed-eater as it is acting up a bit. Then maybe clean my shop and after lunch will work on another Podcast for tomorrow. So with that I am off for my morning cup of tea with my lovely wife. Have a great day and stay safe. Do what is right. GW

Good Morning! It’s another sunny day here for us in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. While the sun is nice it sure is hot. Yesterday was a scorcher and today will be much the same. After today though things will cool down some and it will become cloudy for a few days. With some showers around. Which will bring out them pesky black-flies in swarms. Yesterday I didn’t do much outside and today I will do the same. Staying in where it is cool. Crazy weather to say the least. But … we are living in the north so not much we can do about it. Highway 522 is slow this morning but I suspect it will pick up as the day moves forward and the closer we get to the weekend the busier it gets. The busiest store in town is the Liquor Store. Ha ha. Tells a lot. On another note my vegetable gardens are starting to perk up a wee bit. This hot sun played havoc on my tomato plants, but I am thinking they will recover in a week or so. My lettuce is starting to show themselves too along with my cucumbers. So won’t be long and we should be eating some fresh lettuce. I give it a couple more weeks. Potatoes too are showing their leaves and I hilled them a wee bit yesterday for the first time. I have to do that a few times when they are just starting. So if things goes to plan we should have a bushel or so of potatoes later on in the summer. That will be a nice treat. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a bite to eat with my lovely wife. Take care, stay safe and most of all do what is right…. distance yourself from others. GW

So how you all doing today? Good I hope. Looking out the sun is shinning here in Port Loring, Ontario this morning, and I suspect it will continue for most of the day. Temperatures were sitting at 17.4 C | 63.32 F which is nice and will warm up even further a bit later on this morning. Nice to have the warm temperatures along with the sunshine. It’s been a long time coming. I kind of think that as the country starts to have higher levels of humidity, we could see a small reduction in virus transmission. “That might be really beneficial in terms of containment measures, but I don’t think it will be enough that it would actually stop the virus on its own. But you never know what Nature is really capable of doing. If nothing else these warm humid temperatures should slow it down giving us more time to figure things out, that is if everyone does what they suppose to be doing … like social distancing and wearing a mask when going to places where there are a lot of people. Highway 522 is a touch busy this morning and I suspect once again it will pick up as the day moves forward. Not too much we can do about that I suppose, other than protecting yourself. Which is what we are doing. On another note them pesky Black Flies are out in full force these days, which might be a good thing as they do have the ability to keep folks inside their cottages and homes. I should also mention that it will be really hot today and tomorrow, so it might pay to close up some of your curtains later on this afternoon. Temperatures could get up to 35C. Things will cool down by Thursday. Things sure have greened up the past few days and I can’t rightly say I’ve seen it so green, the colours are really nice. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife, and then will see what I can get myself into. Just never know these days. Stay safe. GW
