Second drive this season!

We were told Bear was part husky. Clearly the mouthy part....

This is just not right....

That's a big turtle!! Bear spotted this near the Tomifobia river here in Ogden QC yesterday

The view from the back deck in Ogden QC this evening.

I think every Canadian who has been leaving US produce or other items on the shelves and avoiding travel to the US deserves a huge thank you. We're in this together and dammit, we're making a difference. Elbows up, Canada. We're not done yet!!

Doing laundry like it's 1956!!

Friday night in Ogden. Qc... Soundtrack provided by Ray Conniff, his orchestra, and chorus

Big progress in the laundry room renovations in Ogden, QC. Plumbing, wiring, drains are all in and vintage washers and dryers are hooked up again!

"First daffodils / And long excited cables" Lyrics from the tune "These Foolish Things" apply perfectly. The daffodils are waking up in Ogden, QC!

OK, so Franklin Graham can just go f*ck off... The symbolism, the imagery, the depiction is what the Cult of Trump wants. That he IS jeezus and he's gonna do wut the Cult wants! Kill them black and brown folks! KILL and DESTRAY them Trans folks! And oh mah gawd, kill them gaylesibians, too!

This is cruel and inhumane...

Ah, I listen to Ray Conniff and imagine how the world will go *boom* while S'Marvelous is playing....

I wondered why my hubby parked his car on the driveway... then I looked in the garage!

Driving Season 2026 has officially begun!!

Sir, you are a true gentleman and firm believer in what Canada can accomplish if we work together. Thank you for being here for us Québecois who still want to be part of a wonderful thing we call Canada.

This is the best thing I have heard in a LONG time! Here's to a new direction for Hungary with Péter Magyar!!

Sigh... there's always that one screw, nut, or bolt that HAS to be a stubborn little dickhead.... GRRRRRRR

The Bear seemed a bit confused by the chirping of froggies this morning

We are at 'peak crocus' at the house in Ogden QC today!

"This is NOT the Shaw version of 'Begin The Beguine'. I am insulted!"

What caused the cooking connections in the Frigidaire Filtrator dryer? The connector in the first picture... like a grounding rod connector. It got plenty hot! I swapped elements from another Filtrator heater box and did some rewiring.

The Bear treats _every_ day like it's National Pet Day

Progress at last!! Water and drain lines for the new and improved laundry room are in! The drain just has to be connected to the main stack so we're getting closer!

"Glad to be back to the house in the woods. Glasses isn't playing records on one of his damn tube hi-fi consoles. Bliss!"

So much for Christian values, eh?

Hmmm... the garage in St-Liboire QC is all swept out and tidied up. You'll see why next week (wink wink)

"Where's the snow all gone, Glasses?"

Hmmm... those heater connections on the 52 Frigidaire dryer are definitely well-done. Now to find out the 'why' and correct it.
