Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
Sleeping in lately has not been a problem for neither Kathy nor
I. It was after 8:00 this morning when we got up to have our breakfast. In the
process of eating we also watched the Weather Channel on the television and
what they were showing was not a pretty picture. The Humidex for the day would
be well above the century mark along with the chance of severe afternoon
thunderstorms.
As usual we headed to the computers to get caught up on our
morning reading. Once that was finished we both started our own line of
research about things we needed to do. Even with the extremely warm conditions
outside Kathy suggested that we have an early lunch and go do some shopping
inside an Air Conditioned store.
After lunch we ended up at Walmart. With the shopping we had
done the other day Kathy was more on track of what she needed to buy so we
could scratch more gifts off of our Christmas
list. It took well over an hour but by the then we are now down to only
shopping for one more person. That’s not too bad considering there are only 121 more shopping days left. Because of power
glitches to their computers we were delayed in checking out. Once that was
completed I put our purchases in the truck while Kathy went to the in-store
McDonald’s and got a couple of coffees and muffins for us to have a snack. That
helped refresh us to carry on with grocery shopping that would take another
hour to complete because of another power glitch.
When we got back to the apartment building there were no
shopping carts available so Kathy helped with a few lighter bags until we got
inside our apartment. Leaving her with the frozen foods to put away I made two
more trips to get everything in. Our timing seem perfect because shortly after
we had finished putting things away we sat at the computers to cool down. That was
when we started hearing rumbles of thunder outside. Opening the curtains we had
closed to keep the heat of the sun out we were looking at black skies with
pouring rain and a continuing display of lightning. For the next couple of hours
the rain continued and the Weather Channel was flashing warnings across the
screen for our area.
Once the storm calmed I grilled a wonderful Salmon Fillet low and slow on the Weber while Kathy reheated the
Spanish rice from last light and then she microwaveda couple ears of corn that we had bought today. The meal was delicious
and there’s still some salmon left over that Kathy is already planning to use
for lunch tomorrow. Thanks for following
along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

No storm here, just a sunny hot day, under a big willow tree reading with a nice breeze and a dip in the pool after mowing some lawn, perfect summer day.
