Answer To A Comment, Riding The Ganatchio Trail, Talking To My Aunt and Reading Geeks On Tour.

Our Location today is at Windsor, Ontario.

We were both in bed at a decent time last night which meant we both slept like a couple of rocks that didn’t wake until 8:00 this morning. I wasn’t even up Five Minutes when Kathy joined me so after having our Muffin for breakfast we were enjoying our morning Coffee/Tea at the Computers just after 8:30.

Looking outside you could tell it was going to be a nice day. When I double checked The Weather Network it showed this would be the best for the next week with most of the others being very wet. Since we missed our Bike Ride waiting for a call from the Ministry of Transportation yesterday we agreed to give it a try this afternoon.

It seemed that there were less Blogs to read this morning but that could be because I read a number of them before going to bed last night. One of the Comments was wondering what they will do about renewing their Driver’s License since all the Service Ontario Offices are presently closed due to the Coronavirus. As soon as you call there is a lengthy recorded message saying that your Driver’s Licence, Health Cards and License Stickers will remain VALID until sometime after all the Offices reopen. When I spoke to both the Ministry Officers yesterday they both reiterated the same thing.

We had all our chores done early so Kathy thought we should have an early lunch. Today we had Vegetable Soup with a Cheese Stick as a side then to give us extra energy to burn we had the last of the Brownies with a Yogurt Cup for dessert.

We finished our Tea while uncovering our Tandem Bicycle and pumping up the Tires. We donned our Helmets and were soon heading down the hallway for the Elevators. We had to wait until the Moving Elevator came because our Bike is too tall for the Smaller Units.

This was our first time riding our Tandem Bike since last Fall at the Wildwood RV Park. Today was also our first time riding on the Ganatchio Trail. We’d heard it was quite long but were not sure so we headed east where we were able to see Lake St. Clair as we travelled.

This Trail is used by Joggers, Walkers, Skateboarders, Rollerbladers and Cyclists. Even though everyone was practising Social Distancing it sometimes cause a problem when Walkers spread across the entire path. We followed the rule “Slower Traffic stay to the Right” and were passed many times by other Cyclists.

When we reached Lesperance Road in the town of Tecumseh we took a brief moment to have a drink before heading back towards home. Instead of turning into the parking lot we continued past until we reached Lauzon Road which we use most of the time in our Truck or Car. We could see from the intersection that the Trail continued much further but we didn’t want to overdo it on our first ride. We ended up travelling just over Ten Miles but it felt good.

While I refastened the Bicycle Cover and Bike on the Balcony Kathy was busy making Macaroni and Cheese for supper. Just as she was about to serve it my aunt Anna called. Kathy had put my supper in the Microwave to keep it warm and it worked.

My aunt lives in a local Retirement Home which is one step above a Nursing Home. A Month ago when the Coronavirus became a Pandemic the Home stopped letting anyone go out nor anyone go in. In the last Two Weeks they have confined everyone to their rooms. All their meals are brought to them but her suite is smaller then a Travel Trailer. You can’t walk too far in that. My cousins are looking for another place for her to live.

That's St. Clair Shores Michigan over there.

After we finished the Dishes we watched the 6 o’clock Local News before turning on our Computers again. Our temperature actually hit 70 F (21 C) this afternoon.

One of the Blogs I was reading was Geeks on Tour. If there is anything electronic Computers, Laptops, I-Pads, Tablets, I-Phones or Cell Phones they know how to use all the features and can teach you. It was by sitting in on a couple of their Seminars that I learned how to create our Blog. Since they are so busy they don’t always post every day so it’s strange that they (Chris and Jim) has been writing their Blog much longer then we have and only written around Two Thousand Posts when we have written over Three Thousand to date. If you don’t follow them already you might consider checking them out at this Link.

Clouds settling in as a Storm Front approaches.

With wet weather forecasted for the rest of the week we’ll have to find something to do. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.

Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
