Another hot day we enjoyed, dogs in a hot vehicle, lawn mowing and tasty salad for supper.

Where are we today ? 

New Hamburg Ontario

          Another warm summer evening, windows open with a lovely breeze very comfortable for sleeping.
           Just after 7 am I took a nice walk down the road and back just over a mile to start my day.

a nice quiet country road

     Then a short drive to Plattsville (Pettigrew's garage) chat with the guys and borrowed a special tool to remove our broken window winder from the drivers door (yes we still have manual wind up windows). The knob on it keeps coming off so I just switched to a rear window window very seldom used. I used to have that tool probably 40 + years ago when I worked on a lot of old cars, but it must have went away when we purged the house?  Nice to have the proper tool, I switched these winders in less than 5 minutes, Much better now.
      Then at 9:30 I took Suzie to New Hamburg dropped her off at a her Dad's to glue  another puzzle he has finished. While she did that I picked up a few groceries for Sandy and us. While I was loading the groceries in the trunk this "old guy' lol, probably my age came over and asked if I was a dog lover, Yes I replied, He had been sitting in his car waiting for his wife and notice this Black pickup truck beside him with 2 dogs in side barking , with the windows up in this heat. So I took a look, yes there was but the truck was running with the air conditioner on (water dripping under is a good sign) so figured that they would be safe.
      45 minutes later I picked Suzie up and back home for lunch.
      About 11 am lunch done then I whipped over to Camp Awesome, 10 minutes away, to mow a bit more yard for an hour or so , it was hot today, so when done a very nice refreshing dip in the pool. method in my madness.

looking better now

this pool is wonderful perfect temperature 80f
and nobody here but me!

          While I was gone Suzie and Sandy fried up some hamburg and ground chicken(for us) to make a Taco salad for tonight's supper. Sounds good to me on another hot day.
       Back home I fixed our door opening so the bugs (wasps) cannot get in to the opening by the latch. I had saved an old bicycle tube for these kind of repairs, So cut a chunk off and made it fit the opening, keep the bugs out.

this old tube came in handy

new flap installed

no bugs can get in there now

      Now to relax in the shade enjoying our e-readers, My Kobo and Suzie's I-pad mini right back into our page turners. A perfect way to enjoy a warm sunny afternoon with a nice cool breeze. Even though it is hot we are quite comfortable here in the shade.
