Our Location today is McGregor, Ontario,
Canada.
Due to the night time
temperature dropping below 50 F (10 C) this early in the season we
thought it would be a wise idea to shut the windows and vents again last night.
We didn’t turn anything on that would heat the inside of the trailer either.
The fact that we are still in the Summer
season we didn’t think it was necessary to add any extra covers on the bed
before going to sleep. All these added up to the both of us snuggling under the
covers pulled to our necks and shivering through most of the night.
As mentioned many times
before if we don’t sleep properly at night it reflects in how late we sleep
until in the morning. Even with the Sun
shining brightly into the trailer after the Window Shades were opened the temperature was only 52 F (11 C). It was definitely a Two Coffee Cup morning when we sat
reading at the Computers. We
accomplished cleaning up a few other things left behind from our recent return
from our Hotel Stay.
While the last two ears of Corn that we had purchased were cooking
inside the Microwave Kathy was busy
toasting some Bread while I sliced
up some Havarti Cheese to be put on
them. While I was cutting the stock end off the ears of Corn and squeezing them out on a plate Kathy melted the Havarti Cheese on the Toast in the Microwave. We each had two slices of Cheese on Toast with an ear of Corn
for lunch.
We left around 1:00 so that
we could run a few errands. Our first stop in Windsor was at Guardian Storage where we collected our Mail before going to our Climate
Controlled Storage Unit to return the Empty
Folded Boxes that we had used when we had to take things out the trailer
for the Warranty Repairs.
We next went to the Motor City
Credit Union to do some banking
which included getting Rolls of Change
for future loads of Laundry.
Since using the Plastic Paint Sheet worked so well at
protecting our Bed through the Warranty Work we went to Dollarama
to get a couple more in case we need them. They are inexpensive, light in
weight, easy to store but not always easy to find. We couldn’t get them at the Dollarama in
Amherstburg the
other day.
We finally ended up at the Zehrs grocery store where we purchased more groceries
to add in our Pantry. Kathy has held
back filling the new shelves that we added because she didn’t want to overstock
them. She also wasn’t really sure how much they would hold.
When we arrived Home
after 4:00 the Twenty MPH Wind Gusts
were making the 63
F (17 C) feel cooler then it was
even in the bright sunshine. This had been the first day since this spring that
we had to wear long pants and shoes. We even brought our jackets with us but by
not being directly exposed to the Wind for
too long we didn’t need to wear them.
After everything was put
away we immediately started getting things ready for supper. Kathy cooked Pasta Noodles to go with the rest of
the Homemade Chicken Stir Fry she
made yesterday. She also cut us each a piece of Chocolate-Covered Zucchini Cake that she found at the grocery
store. The Stir Fry was as Tasty as yesterday and the Cake was not only Tasty but Healthy as well.
The Weather Guessers on the 6 o’clock Local News
are showing more cool and wet weather heading our way. I thought this
was still Summer! Are we in for an
early Winter? Stay tuned as we see
what Mother Nature has planned for
our area. Thanks for
following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

You're at a truck stop daily, but aren't a trucker.
Kathy should make up a Menu Cookbook. All your meals look wonderful!!!

ReplyDeleteOver a month ago I saw a flock of geese flying in V-formation in the direction of Detroit and wondered if they knew of an early winter this year. Hope not, but maybe its time to make some plans for travel... We have had the thermostat set for heat on during the night in the house for the past couple of weeks already. Way too early.
ReplyDeleteNever had Zucchini cake. Is it made like Carrot cake?
Come south, summer is still in full swing. today the high was 91F.
ReplyDeleteFall temperatures are definitely upon us. The good news is the mosquitoes are gone...:)
