Morning Chat Nov 12/2020

So how you all doing this morning? All good I hope. Ruth and I are fine other than a couple sore backs. But we are slowly on the mend. Waking up here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada the sun is shinning. The temperature has cooled down some sitting at 0.9 C | 33.62 F. It will warm up a wee bit as the day moves forward. But even though it is cool, we will see a lot of sunshine for most the day. Highway 522 is bare and dry throughout. Traffic is slow with most folks out in the bush trying to get that trophy buck, which will give them some nice eating this winter. As I say I don’t hunt anymore. I kind of figure I will leave that to the younger folks. My warm home is more enticing these days. LOL Yesterday I did finish up some more things outside, in spite of the high winds we had. I made a dump run, washed the car and put some more things a way that needed to be put out of the weather. So now we should be all set for what Mother Nature has to offer. This morning I will help my wife make some oven bread and then settle in for the Masters Golf Game for 2020 in Augusta Georgia. Usually it is in the spring but with this virus they delayed it till now. So for the next four days my wife and I will be enjoying it. I paid a wee bit more this year on my Shaw bill, so we can watch all four days on TSN. Should be a great 4 days. It’s the only golf I watch. We especially like the course with all the trees, flowers and things. At the moment though it is on hold, as they are having some rain along with some thunderstorms moving through the area. But they are saying the golfers should be back playing in a half hour or so. With that, I am off for some pancakes with a fresh pear caramel sauce that my lovely wife is making. We picked up some Bartlett Pears last time in town. Should be tasty. She is one good cook. Take care and stay safe. Things aren’t good out there these days. GW

Good Morning! It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. We had some strong winds all night long, and it’s still quite windy this morning. The temperature waking up was sitting at 12.1 C | 53.78 F. It won’t warm up much as the day moves forward. But in saying that we should see a wee bit of sunshine later on this morning. Highway 522 is still busy with folks moving east and west. Lots of hunters this year, more than normal. On another note my wife and I went to North Bay to pick up some groceries. It was a nice trip in with just a few showers on the way in. But on the way back we had sunshine. While there we noticed a lot of the younger ones not wearing a mask and congregating here and there. I can see why so many folks are being infected these days. Too bad too as it is unnecessary. The thing is we just need to hang in there for a couple more months till this vaccine makes its way into our society. But such is that. Human behaviour is and always has been a mystery. Today I have to go to the dump as things are piling up. After that I will wash the car one more time, as it is dirty from going to town yesterday. After that I will put my garden hose away for winter and relax. Then if it doesn’t rain in Atlanta Georgia tomorrow, my wife and I will be watching the Masters Golf Game. The weather though doesn’t look too good. But you never know. This year at the Masters there won’t be any fans with this virus going around, so that should be interesting. There won’t be too many cheers that we usually hear. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee, and will then see what the day has in store. You never know. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right.

Good Morning. I am hoping everyone is fine waking up. Looking out we are having some light showers here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. In spite of the rain though, the temperature is still quite nice, sitting a16.1 C | 60.98 Ft. It will stay warm all day. If we are lucky we could see a wee bit of sunshine later on, but for most parts it will remain cloudy with off and on showers. Highway 522 is bare and busy these days with hunters. But … things will slow down a lot in a week or so once hunting season with rifles is over. I see colder weather in the forecast starting on Thursday, and by the end of the week we might even have some snow flurries entering into the picture. It’s only a matter of time living where we do. That’s when the fun begins LOL. On another note, I did get everything cleaned up that I had to do outside yesterday. I didn’t think I had much left, but once I got started working, one thing led to another. My wife took it easy watching as her back is still quite bad and mine isn’t the greatest yet. But I am thinking we both are slowly getting a bit better every day. The trick is not to do anything right now to make it worse. LOL So with that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and a bite to eat, and then will see what the day has in store. Every day is a mystery for most parts. But … that’s what makes life interesting. Take care and stay safe, as this virus is getting much worse. My son was saying that there are two more cases in North Bay at the moment. So it’s starting up there once again. They were doing quite well for a bit there. But a lot aren’t wearing masks and the kids are back to school, so one is to expect what is taking place. Too bad too.

Good Morning Nov 9/2020

It’s a cloudy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. Yesterday was like summer, today is so so. But not too cold with the temperature sitting at 14.1 C | 57.38 F. Highway 522 was very busy yesterday with campers, trucks loaded with four wheeler’s, all kinds coming into the area for the hunt. I have to say I never seen so many hunters as this year. I suppose it is a good reason to get out of the cities. Can’t say I blame them in some ways. Knowing that though, we here have to take extra precautions for sure. This virus is starting to really gain ground now. I would think a lot is from opening up the school. And of course those that doesn’t wear a mask when out and about. At any rate. Yesterday my wife and I took it easy with both of us having sore backs. Today we will be doing the same. Can’t do much else. LOL With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a bowl of oatmeal with my lovely wife and will then see what develops. Take care, stay safe and do what’s right with this virus.

Good Morning Nov 8/2020

So how you all doing on this fine morning? I say fine because it is a really nice day here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. The sun is shinning and the temperature at the time of this post was sitting at 8 C | 46.4 F. It will warm up a lot as the day moves forward. The nice thing is the warm sunny days will remain with us for the next three days. I put my lawn chairs away for the winter, but the day before last I took them back out and set them on the front porch for my wife and I to do some front porch sittin’, which we have been doing. It’s just perfect out there, no bugs, not to hot and lots of sunshine. I am thinking everyone should be outside soaking up some of that much-needed Vitamin D3. Especially with this virus among us. Yesterday my wife and I took it a bit easy as both of us are hurting a bit. So the only answer to that is rest for a spell. Seems every year we over do things a bit. Our minds say go ahead and do it but our bodies say …. whole up there a minute. LOL Oh well … such is that. On another note I see the Robbins are still with us. They have been chowing down on some small apples that is left on our tree beside the cottage. They are nice to watch. The bird feeder is also having its share of visitors but not so much since it got warm. I suppose they found natural food in the bush. But I know they will be back once the snow and cold weather is upon us. We sure enjoy watching them throughout the winter months and summer too for that matter. So with that I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and will then see what the day has in store for us. Take care and stay safe. This virus is getting much worse. GW

Good Morning. It’s a foggy morning here in Port Loring, Ontario, Canada. The temperature at the time of this post was sitting 7.5 C | 45.5 F. Temperatures will rise as the day moves forward, and we should see some sunshine a bit later too. Knowing that I think I will wash our car and after that put my garden hose away in the basement for winter. After that if I feel up to it, I might put a coat of wax on the old feller. It should then be ready for winter, other than getting my brakes checked over by Kerry a very good friend of mine. He did do an oil change earlier, but this still needs to be done. He said he would do it sometime next week. So once that is done we should be all set. I should mention that Kerry or ‘Booths Garage here in Port Loring, is a great place to take your vehicle too, if it is in need of something. I highly recommend him. Highway 522 is bare and dry this morning. A few cars trucks and things moving from East to West. Mostly hunters and locals that are moving around. With that, I am off for my morning cup of coffee with my lovely wife and maybe a bowl of cereal. LOL Take care and stay safe. GW
