Wednesday, July 23rd - another hot steamy day on the way

Conditions at 5:15: overcast and the suns not up yet but a breezy 19'
Expected later: lots of sun and a high of 28' that will feel like 36'

Still lots of jelly fish hanging around

It was supposed to be really hot and humid yesterday so Brenda and I planned to head to the beach after
work. It was lovely and warm but not nearly as hot as expected but that didn't deter us. Brenda arrived right after I got home and we were off. There were a few people at the beach but not many, as per usual. I've never seen this beach very busy but then I suppose most of the vacationers would have been gone by the time we got there.


 Brenda brought food and we enjoyed a delicious meal of chicken salad sandwiches on home made bread and chips, washed down with a Beach Chair Lager (she had given the idea some thought!). After sitting for a while we went for a long walk on the beach, and then it was back home. By the time I finished a bath to wash off the sand, it was time for bed. Thanks Brenda, for another great idea!

A quick trip to the beach on a hot summers day - one of the great joys of living on a island!











 When I arrived home last night, there was a big pile of logs in the yard. Our wood has been delivered for the winter and Lloyd certainly has his work cut out for him in the next little while to get it all blocked. It's a big pile and I'm sure it looks a little daunting right now but we'll get there. I can help split it and eventually we'll  have somewhere to stack it - but not at the moment.
