Having seen the weather forecast before going to bed last night and since we were in no hurry to go anywhere early the moment our heads hit the pillows we were asleep. When I woke it looked like it was the middle of the night but the Clock showed otherwise.

By the time I opened the Balcony Blinds Kathy was already getting out of bed but it was still dim enough I had to turn the lights on to make breakfast. Looking out it was a wall of Rain blocking the sunlight. We managed to get our morning chores done early but ended up spending most of the day at the Computers.

One of the reports from the Federal Canadian Government that Kathy was reading indicated that the International Border between Canadaand the United States could remain closed to all Nonessential Travel to as late as 2023. The reason they claim is due to the handling of the Coronavirusand its rising Cases because many are not taking this seriously. By having people Stay at Homethe numbers started to drop but as soon as businesses opened like nothing happened the Casesspiked. By wearing Masks and Social Distancing the numbers again started to drop but people claim its against their constitutional rights and refused to wear them. This Virusholds no political affiliation and discriminates against no one. We wear Masks not only to protect ourselves but others around us. If they are not wearing Masks it shows they are only thinking about themselves.

For lunch Kathy made Baked Beans on Toast with Lemon Squares for dessert.

This afternoon the Rain would stop for a few minutes before starting again then repeating the cycle.

We were in the process of getting things ready for supper at 6:00 when our daughter Karen called to invite us over for a visit around 7:00 so we said we’d see her then. We ended up eating our Spare Ribsbefore the Acorn Squash was finished cooking. Let’s just say they were both served hot.

The Rain had finally stopped when we left the building and the temperature had also dropped but looking all around us we wondered what was about to happen next. The Clouds that were approaching were more threatening then they had been all day but we managed to make it to Karen’s house in Tecumsehwithout getting wet.

Karen and Kylla were busy cleaning up the kitchen from their supper and Greg was on his way to help a friend work on his lawnmower. For the first few minutes we visited mainly with Sanford who was showing us his newest Toy. We stayed inside but still managed to Social Distance sitting at opposite ends of the dining table. It was nearly 9:00 when we were getting ready to leave but Karen didn’t let us walk away empty handed. She sent us off with fresh from her garden Tomatoes, Zucchini, Peppers, Rhubarb and freshly baked loaf of Strawberry/Rhubarb/Walnut Bread. Thanks Karen!

Once we were back in the Apartment we opened the Balcony Door and Bedroom Window not just to freshen the air but to cool it down. With a low of 59 F (15 C) tonight we are looking forward to sleeping like this.
