Cooler again, some rain but then afternoon sunshine.

Where are we today ?

       This morning started off with a lovely sunrise, cool but sunny, Then it got cloudy , and rainy. Ah poop ! But did  get a few nice walkabouts before the rain started.
nice sunrise across the road
the sun on the wind turbines looks amazing
     I have been waiting for some of this weather to get a few things done, First was to defrost our freezer    that I usually do every fall before we head south. It is still pretty full but most of what is in there we can take across the border. Then took the time to go through my photos for the last 2 months and get rid of a few hundred that we don't need to keep.
     By this time it was about 2 pm and the rain had stopped and we some some sunny spells, still did not get much over 60 F (15 C) but was nice in the sun. Got some quality reading time in before 3 pm when Happy hour here evolves and a few people stopped in to join us.



Jane stopped by to give Gerry a hard time,
but then everyone does that to Gerry.
      Then Suzie got a couple of Doggie fixes, Choco came by with Joe and hung out with Tucker. They had doggie fun and we had people fun.

Tucker is smiling right?
      Then we had people fun, flapping our gums passing stories around and sharing experiences. Always good for a few laughs.
LR Joe, Gerry, Doug, Suzie, Melinda, Judy and Paul
of course  I take the picture
         Then for supper we got a craving from Patsy's Blog  a couple days ago she posted she had liver and onions with bacon. Wow one of our favourite meals (and one I served for years in my restaurant) that we have not had for a very long time. So picked up a small package of beef liver (only $2.30) Fried up some bacon on our grill mat, salute'd an onion and grilled the liver. All on our weber Q 100 on the grill mat.
foil package is some fresh carrots with honey
the bacon and onion smelling wonderful 
now this was once again done to perfection
        I boiled up a couple of new red potatoes and smashed them (skin on)  wow!
sure was tasty and tender, cut the liver with a fork
          Too much food for us so some leftovers, for lunch, no problem there, that's for sure.
          Much cooler today only no shorts for sitting outside but still a pretty decent day with afternoon sunshine for a while.
          Still outside after 7:30 pm  posting this blog and gonna read some more for a while.
          Thanks for stopping in and hope you are enjoying this cooler weather more than we are. Think tomorrow I will make  a pot of soup, just because I can.

  6. I am going to have to get one of those grill mats. Then I can make all the liver and onions I want. Sure looked great. Currently, only get to order it when I go out to a truckers restaurant.

    1. The grill mat sure comes in handy, leave all the mess and cooking smells outside.

  7. Glad you got your liver and onion meal in! The prices are so reasonable for liver because not so many people like it. Good! Lucky that you both love it.
    Great turbine picture, I love those here too. Could be warmer, George! :)

    1. Yes it was awesome, and like you said very reasonable. It is nice we both love it too.
      Yes it could be warner, but we did have a wonderful fall heatwave.

    1. Yes Nancy very easy to clean, wipe with a paper towel , then got drop it in you dish water, non-stick they are. Works great for a lot of items on the grill.
