Here it is November first. Man, time sure flies by, let me tell ya. One minute we are in the midst of summer and the next we are closing in on Winter. But you wouldn’t know it weatherwise.

Starting things off, we are in the midst of some clouds here in Port Loring. We also had a light shower earlier this morning. The temperature is still warm this morning, with it sitting at 8.6 C | 47.48 F. It will warm up more as the day moves forward. And we should also see some sunshine a bit later on. Can’t beat that for this time of year. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning, which will make travelling good. For my wife and I we have all we need for a few weeks, so we will be staying put.

On another note, I worked in my woodworking shop all day yesterday on the Cobblers Bench I am making. Today will be doing the same. It’s nice to be able to do these things. To me, there is nothing nicer than to take a few pieces of old used lumber and make it into something beautiful that will last for years.

With that I am off for my breakfast that my lovely wife is preparing for me and will then get to work.

In Closing, I would Like To Wish You Well.

Starting things off, it is a really nice day here in Port Loring. The sun is shinning, and the temperatures are staying quite warm for this time of year, sitting at 4.8 C | 40.64 F waking up. And by the looks of things, these warm temperatures will remain with us for another week or so. It won’t be good for the deer hunt, but the deer themselves are loving it. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning, which will make travelling good for those wanting to head into North Bay or ? It is possible we could see a few showers, depends on which way the rain is heading. Nature does what she wants and won’t be dictated to by us humans. I respect her motives.

On another note, I worked all day in my old woodworking shop yesterday, getting lots done on the Cobblers Bench I am working on. I also got energetic and in the afternoon and rearranged my whole shop. And if I do say so myself, it is lookin’ good. I enjoy my shop and even more so now, with everything being easy to get at and work with. It’s not a big shop as I used to have, but I can do anything in there that someone could in a huge shop. It’s all in how you go about doing things. Working by myself over the years, I had to learn ways of doing things on my own.

With that, I am off for a bowl of porridge that my lovely wife is making for me, and will then get to work. Porridge stays with you a long time and is a very health food to eat. Other than the brown sugar, I add. But hey … I enjoy it. Haha.

It looks like another nice day is shaping up for us here in Port Loring. The sun is slowly rising without a cloud in the sky. The temperature isn’t or wasn’t all that bad neither getting out of bed, with it sitting at 2.6 C | 36.68 F. It will warm up a lot as the day moves forward. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning. We did have another heavy frost overnight, but it is melting fast.

On another note, I did get up a touch early this morning and lit the shop stove, so it will be nice and cozy in there to do some work. Yesterday I did the same, but after a half hour of burning I let it go out, as if I didn’t, it would be too warm to do any work. Actually I had my shop door open all day which was nice. I enjoy working out there as it seems it gives me a different perspective on life, and I don’t get too wrapped up with myself. In other words, it takes my mind off of things, that are really not all that important. Today I will continue on with the old Cobblers Bench I am working on, I did get the top cut out yesterday along with the legs. Today I will finish turning the legs on my lathe, and if time will start assembling a few things.

With that I am off for my morning bowl of porridge that my lovely wife is making for me, and will then get to work. Enjoy your day, and if possible take advantage of this nice weather. I know we will be.
