I might throw in a line ... one nice thing about reaching the age of 65 in Ontario is that one can fish for free, without a licence:D And the weather looks great for the long weekend: low 20s and lots of sun. Should be a great Thanksgiving (unless you're a turkey ... :eek:) ..... Am going to do the turkey, trimmings, pumpkin pie thing this year. Everything grown and raised in Ontario ... washed down with a fine Ontario wine from Prince Edward County just down the road from here ... However, I will have Lancaster Bomber in the fridge.:D

I suppose the book that you passed the time with must have been that English classic: Izaak Walton's "Compleat Angler" (1653);)

I'd gladly swap, weathers beginning to turn nasty now.

Enjoy them while they're young -you'll miss them once they've flown the nest...

So much for St Luke's Little Summer -looks like you're not getting it this year over in Accy. Looks like it may be turning here too... but overcast this aft.

You should see the storms we get off the Alps--hailstones as big as golf-balls!

I can remember my old man telling me about hailstones as big as golf balls when he was stationed in Italy during the war mobertol

During one of my trips to Lake Garda there was storm which came fast, uprooted palm trees and sank a boat. It happened during the serving of dinner and the waiters had to leave the restaurant and move fast to bring in the outdoor furniture.
