As it turned out, we didn't get to see much. I was able to see up to about 1/3 coverage when heavy clouds rolled in ... and just about the time it was all over they rolled out. I don't mind so much for myself as I've seen several eclipses in the past, but my partner has never seen one, and now still hasn't. - Bill Quote

Members Handstitched Posted May 21, 2024 Members Report Posted May 21, 2024 @chuck123wapati G'Day, Hope all is well in your part of the universe. Getting cold at nights now, but quite warm during the days , almost like a Summers day sometimes. We desperately need rain. Haven't had any rain for a long time. Farmers are dry seeding atm , in the hope that it might rain. Haven't done any BBQ's or anything like that since my best friend , Mum, passed away* . Theres no point, and I just don't have any enthusiasm . . Its just me and Dad now, and he's not a big eater so theres no point in doing the big meals like I used to. *Its been 12 months in June already, that went quick.

HS Hang in there my friend and enjoy a meal made just for yourself your mum would say so too I'll bet. I've been staying with my daughter who had emergency surgery, thought she was dead, she was in the hospital 28 days and me 12 by her side. I'll be off and on as she is home now but still needs our help. I almost missed springtime lol the grass is a foot tall in my yard. Stay safe love your dad and bbq for mum.

That’s quite something, to be in the hospital for that long. Must have been a serious issue. Glad she’s back home, on the mend. Quote

Members Sheilajeanne Posted May 23, 2024 Members Report Posted May 23, 2024 Wow, so that's probably one of the reasons you haven't been around here much, Chuck - you've had far more important things on your mind! You have my prayers for your daughter! Glad she is back home now! We've had some freaky weather here today. There were TWO tornado warnings, plus severe thunderstorm and hail warnings. Fortunately, my part of the country missed the worst of it. Haven't found out yet about the rest of S. Ontario. It's been the hottest it's been so far this year, and of course, VERY humid and sticky. I don't know what the high was - probably low 80's, but felt worse due to the humidity. Quote

My mom loved St. patty's day, she had a green plastic necklace with a shot glass on it she wore every year, she didn't use it really. She passed two days before Patty's day. I wear it every year now and have a shot for her and myself. That old BBQ is a classic better than what you can buy now. Enjoy life !!
