These late summer nights we went to bed at 10 Pm, slept in until 6am wow! A bit cooler last night 58F at 6 then the sun quickly was warming things up. I had few things to pick up in Strathroy so headed in around 9am , Got myself supplies and fuelled up the car and extra gas can for only$1.04 a litre, most places around are $1.30..
Home for a light lunch then outside to enjoy this amazing warm day 84F only 40% humidity too, at 1 pm gotta love it ! We have been hearing what sounded like rain or hail on our roof most of the day. Too hot and sunny for that though, it was actually the keys from the maple trees all around us, They are everywhere !

they keys covering the grass |
|
and building up on our awning |
We did enjoy some of this awesome weather outside in the shade. Nothing like reading outside on a hot sunny day in the shade. So relaxing.
|
Enjoying this warm weather finally and the sounds of the birds chirping and mourning doves in the distance. In a very quiet campground |
|
nobody behind us that we really enjoy |
3 pm is time for Happy hour so got my new insulated mug #1 daughter got me for my 70th birthday party at their house. A very nice mug keeps my beer real cold!
|
an cold beer too! |
Shortly afterwards Kim and Ken joined us along with Tucker and Gerry. Tucker ran right to Suzie and hopped right onto her knee. Then I headed inside for a refill and when I came out Tucker was waiting for a treat, they never forget do they? Suzie gets the treat for Tucker and he does what he has been trained to do.
|
wait and he does |
|
ok now and wham he is right on it |
|
Tucker on his chair we have for him close to Suzie |

Melinda was done work and can join us too |
Another fun Happy Hour, lots of laughs. Networking with information until time for everyone to head home in time for supper.
Our supper tonight was a prime rib steak I picked up on sale this morning , real treat for us when I can get one at a good price. Suzie wanted a baked potato with it and I did some fresh mushrooms and onions in foil for me. Plus some nice fresh asparagus I picked up for a good price as well.

I enjoy thanks to Kim and Ken
for picking this up in New Orleans |
|

That was about it for this amazing day, still in shorts at 7:30 with the late sunrise right here on our site, Temps still in the high 70's whats not to love about this?
Time to wrap up this posting with a sunset photo I took last night, maybe another one later tonight I will show you tomorrow. Gotta do some more reading.

last night's Sunset was very nice |

ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
It is wonderful once again , then cooling down and more rain.
DeleteThat steak looks so good smothered in mushrooms and onions, but no tabasco from me thank you.

The steak was excellent thanks, no tabasco for you are Suzie then more for me.
DeleteWe might get a few days over 100 but not for a while yet.
Nice that you got all those deals including the gas. Do you ever add up how much you saved in one day? Happy for you that the god weather has finally arrived.
ReplyDeleteIt was an excellent price for gas. I don't add up all the savings it is just nice to know that we can get them.
DeleteWe are enjoying this weather for sure.
I love your cup!! Dinner as always, looks delicious. I think I'm adding "chef" to my wish list.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy it is a nice cup and I have a similar one for my morning coffees!
DeleteSome one who loves to cook is always a great person to know.
It was a wonderful day but I disagree about 'nothing better than sitting in the shade on a hot sunny day'. You know where I'd be sitting!
ReplyDeleteSupper looks delicious, yummy beef steak!
It was a great day, but in the sun here with no breeze it was extremely hot. I try to avoid the sun with a couple of issues with skin cancer over the years.
DeleteSupper was excellent thanks.
I have been craving a steak for days. Yours looks so good with the added onions and mushrooms and I WOULD partake on some of that Tabasco Steak Sauce.
ReplyDeleteThe steak was so very tasty nice treat. This steak sauce is not really hot at all just adds a nice tang.
DeleteBeautiful spot you have and perfect for Happy Hour gatherings! Your dinner looks amazing!! Love the mug your daughter got you!!
ReplyDeleteWe do enjoy this spot with nobody behind, beside or in front of us. And a central spot for Happy hours if people wish to join us.
DeleteI will have to look for that steak sauce. I like Tabasco Sauce so I would love that. I hope they have it down here in Texas.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very tasty steak sauce. I have found it in New Orleans and at the Tabasco factory on Avery Island Louisiana.
DeleteWe're now having some great weather with mid 70's temps and low humidity.
ReplyDeleteThats great for you guys there.
DeleteWe area hot and sunny one or 2 days then cooler and rainy.
So cute that Tucker has his own chair. Dinner...WOW
ReplyDeleteTucker loves his chair we got it just for him.
