Back home after darts last night by 9:30. My team did not fair too well, but Suzie's Team came in second place so she won 2 bucks back into our money pot. Always a fun time. When we got home noticed the wind was beginning to pick up overnight so we stored our awning just to be on the safe side. Don't want to loose another one. Or get uo at 3 am in the rain and put it away. A couple of dart pictures from last night at the end of this posting.
A good nights sleep and going to be a wonderful sunny warm day, but still kinda windy. No problem the sunshine sure is welcome after all the rain yesterday. A nice walkabout for my first mile then home to putter around for a while. Recharged our water softener, and check tire pressures while the weather is nice. We are leaving on Sunday morning and supposed to be raining again. Always nice to get some of these things done now as opposed to in the rain.

Then I took a nice country drive to Ipperwash beach check out Lake Huron and stop by one of the houses on the reservation to pick up a pound of Pickerel / Walleye that we enjoy. Picked up a bit more chicken in Forest for tonight's supper, cause we want some leftovers for lunchs.

Now home to enjoy a wonderful warm sunny afternoon, a cool breeze and 75F we can enjoy our e-readers for a while in the shade, Then I enjoyed a nice long hot shower. at the bathhouse across from us.

After a tasty supper back outside enjoying another wonderful evening. At 8 pm still a very comfortable 70F (21C) and still overcast and now no wind. A pretty nice night. Not likely any visible sunset tonight again. Now the forecast has changed we may have a sunny weekend. But then again who knows?
Glad that y'all dropped by for a visit and hope you had some decent weather as well.

Looks like a wonderful day to me. Relax and relax and relax is nice.

DeleteGo Suzie. Nice weather day you had.

DeleteDart night is a fun way to get out for an evening. Nice to see clear blue skies whenever it happens. Too much rain in Ontario this year.
ReplyDeleteDart night is always a fun social time we enjoy.The clear blue skies were wonderful, And yes too much rain for sure
DeleteLake Huron is beautiful, sure looks like the ocean! Hoping to get up that way one day! The park is looking beautiful and so green. Dinner looks fabulous, love chicken breasts! Happy Hour with Ken and Kim..awesome ! Nice the both of you enjoy dart night! Good thing to save all those winnings :)
ReplyDeleteLake huron and all the great lakes are amazing to see, they are really huge and fresh water as well. Everything is so green and quickly growing with all the rain we have had. Nice that Ken and Kim are here in the same campground with always fun to chat with friends. And yes Suzie an I both enjoy playing darts here about the only activity we do here and there is so many if we wish to partake.
DeleteSounds like Susie is the champion darts player. That "nice long hot shower" sounds wonderful. Oh that I only could.
ReplyDeleteShe is a champion ! For sure the long hot shower was wonderful . Wish you could still do that.
DeleteLove your lake photos. $2.00 here and there soon makes enough for a nice meal out.
ReplyDeleteWe do love the great lakes in this area sin amazing to see. The dollars do add up over time for sure.
DeleteWhat a nice day. We have enjoyed our time spent around the Great Lakes and hope to have many more. They are really wonders. I enjoy your morning walks and drives, seeing the sights. Hope the rain stops for you all for awhile. I was getting awful tired of the weeks after weeks of rain we had, but it sure made the trees and flowers pop once it stopped.
ReplyDeleteYes Cheri it was a nice day and do love this area. The rain has stopped for a bit anyway.
