Probably just sit at the beach in my community all weekend and do a bit of swimming. It's going to be far to hot to do any yard work.

It's too bad there are no REAL beaches in southern Alberta; there are some around Edmonton, but it still isn't the same.

BTW is the dark side down again? lol!

I woke up really early and my foursome played a couple of rounds of golf. I mostly drizzled on us. It did pour but we had some shelter in the power carts and of course we wore rain gear. I'm going to catch up on some episodes of Numb3rs, and generally try to warm up this evening. Saturday, I should cut the lawn and catch up on some reading. Sunday, I will be at the Blink-182 concert. Monday, no plans yet.

How many times did you get stopped by construction on Hwy 2?
Who should I ask for to get a comp powercart if I get out there this week-end? Wink

A beautiful weekend here in Edmonton; 22-30 degrees with mostly sunny skies and a chance of t-showers. Pretty decent.

It's too bad there are no REAL beaches in southern Alberta; there are some around Edmonton, but it still isn't the same.

So what if it is a fake beach. I still see tons of Winnipeggers going to Birds Hill on a regular basis.

Of course it would be a bit chilly to swim when its only 18C outside.

I on the other hand was soaking in 30C and sunshine floating around the lake at the clear blue water of my "fake" beach.

Now I am off to a BBQ in Airdrie. Its almost too hot here to BBQ.

A fake beach is a fake beach. You can color code it all you want, but in the end
it's still fake. And no, I don't make it a point to go out to Birds
Hill to enjoy swimming when I can travel no more than an hour more to REAL beaches. The only appeal Bird's Hill would have over an overgrown suburban pool is that it's in a beautiful natural setting instead of being surrounded by a bunch of overpriced houses. And
as for swimming in a suburban beach which is nothing more than a giant
pool, that's not my bag. People and dogs pissing and God knows what
else in a stagnant body of water; no thanks. But if that is for you,
then all the power to you.

I won't brag about the weather here... I hate this heat!
We had a ENE breeze yesterday evening, it seemed like someone opened the oven and all the heat came out...
Sunday we're expecting +35 C...

There was a delay of maybe 10 minutes. Mind you, this was at 7:20- 7:40 am with little traffic. I think it needs to pour rain if you want a free powercart.

All kids are welcome, just let me know how many and the ages so I can plan the food . MizP is taking care of the menu- She says it will be very professional, and appropriate for a Wellington Crescent affair!
No tuxedos, please! lol
