Storm warnings...

🥶 There were storm warnings... but it was the cold that preceded it! Saturday, -29 ℃, I kept a fire going to supplement our propane.  This morning, a balmy -23℃. It is a huge storm, with lightning. It should roll in this afternoon. We are ready.

We always say, on days like this, 'It's a good day to be retired!' Joe Brian spent years dealing with issues like this. Something like 1400 flights cancelled. 

Jordan was in Ottawa for the weekend, attending the Canadian Space Conference for the weekend. He took the Flix bus. I can't believe he is 18! 

Even more amazing, Aster being up early, during this exam period, on a Saturday morning. The family had breakfast together, although they won't see much of him! The schedule is packed.

"The Canadian Space Conference is the flagship conference of SEDS-ÉEDS Canada, a national space industry non-profit that serves students and early-career space professionals."

Just when I get it all cleaned up...  

It is a time for throwing veggies and chicken in a hot oven! I cubed sweet potatoes, added broccoli, and what I thought was canned pineapple. (It was crushed, oh well!) The chicken was wrapped in bacon. I threw it together, threw it in the oven, and put my feet up watching a new show: Newton's Law. A fun mystery, lawyer legal series from Australia. 

I found weasel tracks beside the frog pond. This is what I think. I can't find my laminated chart! 

Maybe 6" stride.

A cat got it, I think. Sept. 22, 2022:

It took the cardinal eggs one year, 2020.  Also, the wood duck eggs in 2020. Circle of life...

I peered out the kitchen window. The deer had a hat! The red squirrel (DRS) has figured out the cat door nearby. It's been cleaning up spilled deer and bird seed in the garage. It is helpful, truly. 😁

This is the right idea, two cats sharing a bed. Wrapped in sunshine, in a warm bed, in a warm house.
