Fall colours

This one of the holes next to the trail for the Peaks Tee golf course.

The photo of the trail is near the 48 road.
It was only 2 in morning with rain and snow showers, it cleared by noon. I mowed the lawn, the went cycling, cycled Mount Stewart to Cardigan, about 27 km. Temp as I post this is zero.

Stormy day

I took this photo to show the bit of snow laying on the wipers. But it is interesting how the water on the windshield caused items in the photo to be distorted.
It was windy but not as bad as yesterday, mostly rain with snow showers at times and a couple sunny breaks during the afternoon.
The temp this morning was 2 and the high for the day 10, presently it is 3.

Wind storm

The wind was gusting to 60 km/h when I took this video. At west Point today the wind hit gusts of 138 km/h with steady wind of 110 km/h.
The highest wind gust at this location was around 100 km/h.
My rain gauge is showing 75 mm for the day. And the temp was 7.
I donated plasma this morning and attended a radio club meeting this evening.

Fall colours

This field is just at the back of our house.

If it had being a sunny day the colours would be much better. Light rain and mist all day with a high temp of 16. I was to cards this evening in Warren Grove, first night of the season. I won first place for the men.

Walk in field

I went for a walk though the ball field woods to the field behind the woods, it has not been farmed for a few years.
This is one of the fields that I ski across, some of these bushes / trees are already 3 meters high.
Steady rain this morning, light rain and drizzle the rest of the day at 16

Island East cycling event day 3

The Ladies of Murray Harbour had a great assortment muffins, rolls, fruit and tea & cooffee for us this morning. Unfortunately it is raining again but not like yesterday. My gauge showed 50 mm for yesterday and only 5 mm for today.
A smaller number taking part today, about 40-45 brave souls. Actually a better day because the trail was not muddy for the most part and the distance was only 22 km. Beef stew and fresh rolls for us when we got to Wood Islands.

Island East cycling event day 2

I took this photo of the boats in St Peters bay as I drove to St Peters this morning.

Looking across the bay to the big church. The cycling today is from St Peters to Souris, about 36 km. Unfortunately it rained all the way to Souris, we were very wet and muddy, lucky there was a garden hose at the end of the ride to hose of the bikes and ourselves. Now to get everything dry to be ready for tomorrow's ride. The forecast is for showers, but after today I hope we are between showers. The temp wasn't too bad, around 15.
