Curious, what did you not like in Flight?

Love this channel.

Seeing that she’s an orange cat, I can only wonder what awaits you upon your return. Safe travels and I’m missing Disney as you post from there.

This made me laugh. 😀

Sometimes outages happen for no reason, that is immediately and visibly known. Might have been a transformer caught on fire, a car taken out a power pole etc… We had a huge wind storm Friday night here and lost power for almost 12 hours. There was outages all across the province. Our generators fired at all 3 houses and things were good. Unfortunately there is clean-up to do again at all locations.

Hard to believe it’s been that long ago. If only there had been a lighthouse on the ice berg.

Dani, we are praying for you, your family, and your country.

From our home as well.

That is so cool. Did you see them play the Mets or the Yankees?

Spending the afternoon at the ball park. Thank goodness the Jays play in a dome. The high today is 45F. First pitch is at 3:07.

Just a brief take IMO in Canada. @Ourusualbeach and @Tree_skier can chime in to give their thoughts as fellow Canadians, if they differ or are similar. There is promotion by government, mainly by using tax payer's funds to invest in battery plants and automotive plants to build electric vehicles. IMO they are being dictated by the current federal government. "The Liberals have announced Canada's move away from fully gas-powered cars and toward electric vehicles, mandating that all sales of passenger cars, SUVs, crossovers and light trucks be hybrids, electric or hydrogen-powered by 2035". Our current Minister of Environment and Climate Change was previously a Green Peace activist who climbed the CN Tower and was sentenced to one year's probation. The court also ordered him to pay a portion of costs estimated at $50,000. His task is to protect the environment, but I would philosphically ask where should the line of reality be drawn versus a unrealistic goals. As it stands our electrical grid where I live in my rural county could not support all electric cars, let alone the entire province nor entire country. To upgrade the grid for my county makes no sense. Neither does diesel generators at gas stations to provide power for the cars. Doing that defeats the purpose of not burning fossil fuels. The theory is good, the practicality in my eyes not so much. I have personally had a hybrid SUV and bought 2 more for our family business. There are many that feel the same way as me about this mandated change, but there are others who are passionate about it. If I did a lot of commuting and had a fast charger near my home I would add one to my fleet of cars. Their raw speed and power is interesting but for me, at this point, it is not even on my radar. I have loved riding in them and when using Uber if it is an option I pick it. As for the stories you have mentioned you can find a news stories here and here about electric vehicle demand dropping and plants cutting shifts. Just my take, and maybe Dave and Ken can chime in what their thoughts are about Canada and electric cars. I did my best to make it about the car VS politics.

That's how I read your post.

RC had an excursion in Falmouth to one. Not sure exactly sure what it was about but they had it.

All the food looks delicious.

Have to ask, is the chair to show the distance between tables or you had a ghost join you?😉😂
