What Is The Weather Today II (No Mercury Jockeying)

[MonctonRad]

Calgary froze last night. I will add it to the list tonight or tomorrow.

The first of the "big six" to bite the dust..........

[Xelebes]

I don't really take pictures at all. Like ever. I have taken three pictures in the last couple months and this was last night with the Northern Lights.

[TownGuy]

^ Nice. Be on the lookout again tonight.

Ironically enough headed to a dark sky preserve today. I imagine the area was packed last night. Went to see fall colour today. Not as much as I was expecting considering it's further north.

First of the solar lights finally arrived. Also have different types for the fence and the cherry tree trunks.

Looks great!

Are you allowed to have a firepit in St John's? It looks like you'd have enough space for a cosy little gathering area on the lawn.

^ Nice photos guys. It was a pleasant seasonal fall day in Vancouver.







I went to vote in the BC election, the choices were Conservative, NDP, Green, or Communist. I won't vote alt-right, single issue, or communist.

Wood ones are illegal, I believe, but not really enforced. I think we're allowed to have propane ones. Friends have brought over their propane one a few times. It is nice!

From Thursday at the Rockton Fair. Thought there would be more colour there by now. I seem to recall the last time I was there two years ago there was more colour showing.

Raining and cold. I'm repainting the floor. Solid black was not the vibe. Attempting the checkboard I actually want but can't afford lol



It's truly torture. Especially freehand But I'm mumbling jibberish along with Portuguese folk songs to make the work lighter. And, according to Tiktok, the nonsense I'm saying is no worse than the actual words.

Quando eu nasci a minha mãe não tinha leite - When I was born, my mother had no milk
Fui criado como um bezerro enjeitado - I was raised like a little orphaned goat
Mamei em vacas e em tudo que tinha peito - I've sucked on cows, anything with breasts really
Cresci assim deste jeito - It's how I was raised
Fiquei mal habituado - And now it's a bad habit

Hoje sou homem e arranjei uma cabritinha - Now I'm a grown man, with a cute goat
E passo o dia a mamar - And I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 all day long
Nos peitinhos da fofinha - On the cute thing's 🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵

Eu gosto de mamar - I like to 🞵🞵🞵🞵
Nos peitos da Cabritinha - On the goat's little 🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵

Caguei me toda, caguei me toda - I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself, I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself
estava aflita e caguei me toda - I was all upset and 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself
caguei me toda - I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself
teve que ser - Just had to happen
caguei me toda - I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself
numa fila dentro do carro não me aguentei - Waiting in the car, I couldn't hold it
é o que dá quando jantas indiano - That's what happens when you have Indian for dinner
numa fila dentro do carro não me aguentei - Waiting in the car, I couldn't hold it
caguei me toda caralho - I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself everywhere
é o que dá quando jantas indiano - That's what happens when you have Indian for dinner
indiano, comi picante e deu merda - Indian, I ate spicy food and it sucked
parada na segunda circular - And had to stop on the second ring road
porfavor só quero cagar - Please, I just want to 🞵🞵🞵🞵
ja não me aguento - I can't take it anymore
caguei me toda - I 🞵🞵🞵🞵 myself

Propane is the most considerate, IMHO. Saving your neighbours from choking on wood smoke is always a good thing.

11C and blustery in Moncton at 3 PM. We've been having bands of rain all day combined with gusty winds. Leaf fall is becoming quite noticeable.


Drone shot of my neighbourhood in northwest Moncton from a couple of days ago. The Northwest Trail is in the foreground, as well as the neighbourhood water tower. You can see Evergreen Park School in the middle ground, and downtown Moncton near the horizon.

It was a wet evening. We tried to use the deck but ended up wrapped up in quilts in the living room lol

[giallo]

Beautiful day in Monaco yesterday. 22c

[megadude]

What time of the day was that? Streets were empty.

****************************************************************************************************************************

Super clear and sunny day, which made the 16 degrees high feel warmer. But, now it goes to 🞵🞵🞵🞵 for a few days before bouncing back. I wanted to go to Lakeland Go Karts with the kids last weekend in Hamilton Beaches, but ran out of time. So, with the nice weather, decided to try again. Turns out it's the last weekend ever of operation, which only became news a few days ago. It's been around for over 6 decades and it's most definitely not the nicest operation. Everything is very old. The sad thing is, tracks are gradually closing down just like 9 hole golf courses. Many of the indoor and outdoor tracks I raced at are now gone. Last year Centennial Mini Indy closed, and I went a few weeks beforehand. About 15 years ago I showed up for twlight rate at Ultimate Golf Centre in Vaughan and the girl told us we were the last players ever before it would get torn down and redeveloped.

Afterwards, went to Downtown Burlington and RIP to the big donut sign. I noticed it was gone. I asked they guy what happened. He said a windstorm took it out a couple of years ago. So, that would have been not long after I last visited. He said they're working with the city to bring it back.
