Just more amazing warm weather that we love. Nice night windows open, Fantastic fan going keeping us cool with a nice breeze all night. Nice and warm again this morning at 6 am and got a couple miles walked around the park before it got too warm. By noon temps into the high 80's F and not much of a of a breeze, A nice light tasty lunch with fresh fruit did the trick.
Then to the fitness centre here in the park and enjoyed a wonderful full body work out, just cause I can (included in our membership here) and no where to go today anyway.
Suzie's brother, sister in law and her Dad were going fishing in Grand Bend and hoped to bring home supper. But they had no luck and I had prepared for it by buying some fish and the reservation yesterday. So I thawed out 1 lb of Perch and 1 lb of Pickerel (Walleye) for a pan fry tonight.
When they got here they took her Da d to the pond up the road, and they did very well lotsa small fish (sunfish) a crappie and one a bit bigger . But catch a release only, buy at least they caught some fish in short order.

Wanted to fire up our AC for a bit, but once again did not work, so took our controller apart and sprayed with electronic contact cleaner. Let it sit for a while, back together and fired right up, Gotta love these nice easy fixes.
Outside to enjoy more of this warm weather, post this blog and enjoy our e-readers for a couple of hours. Gotta love this weather.
Glad that y'all dropped in for a visit and hope you had some decent weather too, wherever you are.
Where have we been this summer ?
That fish looks delicious! I must be hungry!
ReplyDeleteThanks FG it sure hit the spot and was excellent .
DeleteHa the old Coleman still comes in handy! We're well into triple digits in the western deserts, 120F tomorrow ... and that's not the record :)
ReplyDeleteYes the Coleman keeps on working and does an excellent job like it always did, You getting the heat there that we left a few months ago, hope you can keep cool enough.
DeleteI remember those Coleman stoves. Everyone needed one if they were going to cook outside. There weren't a lot of options years ago.
ReplyDeleteI have cooked many meals on this Coleman stove over the years and just works wonderfully. It was the easiest way to cook up a meal. Either that or a campfire.
DeleteWe're having a warm spell and windows open at night. Mr Him awoke with streaming hayfever though. Wants to tear his eyes out. Oh dear.
ReplyDeleteThe warm spell is nice but the hay fever not so much, I used to have it bad year ago. But not nearly as bad now.
DeleteI love a good fish fry and would have dove right into your offerings
ReplyDeleteNothing like a good fish fry, it was wonderful.
DeleteDid you buy the fish fresh or frozen? Bones? One reason we (well hubby) doesn't eat it much, he hates the little bones. Did you bread the fish? It looks awesome, and the coleslaw and potato salad looked mighty tasty! Love a good Coleman stove!
ReplyDeleteThe fish was frozen, and no bones at all, very nice fillets. Got from the Indian reservation where they catch it. A light breading made it very nice. So many store bought breading out there, not a batter.
DeleteOur trusty Coleman stove sure does the job.
Too bad they didn't catch any fish for dinner but it looks like Suzie's Dad had a good time at your pond. Dinner looks good.
ReplyDeleteThey fish for hours off the pier in Grand Bend but no luck, he did enjoy the fishing at the pond lotsa fish catching there but catch and release only.
DeleteMeanwhile here in greater Vancouver we have had the coldest June 15th since 1939! It never got above 13C. Dinner looks great as always.
ReplyDeleteNot problem here we having excellent weather. Fish was wonderful.
DeleteGood thing you had some thawed fish on hand. I've never caught any fish myself despite many tries. But I have drowned lots of worms! :cD
ReplyDeleteI picked up the fish just in case and good thing I did. I too have drowned a lot of worms as well, no fishing any more for me.
