A sunny Sunday just relaxing.

Where are we today ? 
 clic a pic to enlarge it
    Another very warm night, only got to 65F , but the bedroom windows open (the rest closed) and our fantastic fan blowing out,  it brought a nice cool breeze into the bedroom, quite comfortable for sleeping.
     Just after 7 am I got a very nice walkabout the campground just because it is going to be a very hot day again ! Nice that Al and Kelly  (the Bayfield Bunch ) have left the area heading to the east coast and  hope  they have found some cooler  less humid weather.
this is what it was today
      So nice walk down around the valley campsites, , pretty quiet here at this time of year, love it !
only 2 trailer's here
so peaceful, no dog no people
         Then over and around the ponds , nice views and again pretty quiet.
love the reflections in the pond here
the other pond with huge lilly pads is nice too
Gerry and Melinda' seasonal site across the pond
          Then no where to explore today, Suzie did not want to go to the Pinery Fleamarket , probably next weekend.
          We did get some pretty good reading done outside in the shade for a while. Then I set out to do the anual cleaning our our Weber Q grates. Hammer and a thin screwdriver I chipped away for almost an hour. Removing the baked on carbon on the cast iron grates. Then when clean I rubbed it down with oil and fired up for about 15 minutes to give it a nice coating and keep the rust from happening, also season the grill and keeps the food from sticking to the grill.
       Read outside in the shade for a bit more then Tucker came bouncing over dragging Gerry along for Happy Hour at 3 pm.
      Tucker hopped right on his chair lots of rubs and treats from Suzie.
he gets a nice rub
then treats if he is a good boy
first one he gets 
then he waits for the commands
     Now almost ready he is being a good boy.
Tucker wait
ok now and he does it right as always
     Then our Happy hour with Gerry and Joe stopped by to chat for a while as well, Nicc to  catch up with Joe again too.
 A fun happy hour, for an hour then they head on  home
this is the rest of our day for  a while.
working in this blog in the shade.
While  Suzie has a short snooze
guess we had too much fun and food yesterday!
   This has been a very nice relaxing late summer day that we both really enjoyed. Supper tonight? Neither one of us is hungry, it that remains to be seen. Maybe later ?
    We are comfortable outside , nice cool  but I wanted to fire up our our air conditioners that we have not used for  a while just to exercise them for a bit, front one for about 15 minutes and the rear one about the same. They are both working great so we should be good to go for a while yet. No need for our A/C just want to make sure all is good. It is only 85F inside but will cool down later.
   A bit later another good friend Joe dropped by to chat a while, always nice  to see him again. They have plans to go to their park model in Florida again this winter so they will getaway from the cold as well.
      Now 8:30 pm this posting is pretty well done . Enjoying this very nice evening out side, post this and read for a while yet, just because I can, I will take all this wonderful warm outside weather I can get.
     That was our very relaxing day outside enjoying this weather.
     Hope your day was a wonderful Sunday as well . Thanks for stopping on by.

  3. I'm wondering what you are reading at the moment. I read No time For Goodbye in the summer. It was quite an intriguing thriller. By Linwood Barclay.

  4. Probably a good idea that you saved the flea market til next week. Really busy and it was dog fest. I think we saw just about every kind of dog God made. Pretty hot too. We enjoyed it though and saw Walter and Barb and Joe and Nelly.
    Glad that you both had a nice relaxing day!

    1. Nice that you got to the Market, and saw those guys there as well. We like to get there early and leave early before it gets too busy. It was a wonderful day thanks.

  5. Well, I, for one, am not impressed with our weather. It is hot and humid and I'm so tired of being sticky. Our air conditioner gets run every day just to keep us a little bit drier. Whine, whine, whine. And it looks like we are headed right into the rain today as we move further east. AZ really does look good to me even though they are having excessive heat warnings. It really is beautiful and green here. I really can't get over the fact that it is September and everything hasn't dried up yet. Glad you had some great visits today. A nice, do nothing, day is good once in awhile.

    1. I for one enjoy this hot weather, I just slow down accordingly. Things are still nice and green, but soon the leaves will be changing colours.
      It was a very nice relaxing day thanks.

  6. Soon enough we will be wishing for this heat so we just do things according to the heat and humidity and still enjoying the summer. Last weekend was so cold we needed extra blankets, now the opposite. It's Ontario! :)
    Fall looks like it will arrive right on time according to the trees and dropping leaves around the countryside. You had a nice relaxing day.

    1. I never complain about the heat, I can always cool down, but when I get cold I am cold,,, brrr.
      We are used to this Ontario weather and love most of it except the cold winters.
      It was a great relaxing day, just the kind we really enjoy.

  7. Tucker is a smart cookie. Hoping it cools down for you soon. Thankfully it's been cool here at night. I'm not complaining because soon it will be 34 degrees and I'll be cold!!!
