Tired of the Heat Yet?

I for one, am not!  Another heat warning in effect today!  It's not really the heat that is bothersome, but rather the humidity..which can make it feel even hotter than it actually is.  We've been getting temps in the high 20's...with humidex making if feel like the mid 30's.  And speaking of 30 degrees...that was the water temperature in the pool last evening!

So, for those of you who don't like the heat...here's a little reminder of what our winters can be like!
That's our SUV buried in 84 cm of snow about 3-4 years ago!  Mr. Seventies needed to trudge through the snow and tie a bright ribbon to the antenna so the snow tractor wouldn't hit it!




And after the snow tractor was able to blow out the driveway and after a lot of shovelling...we could finally get our vehicle out!  Many farmers with large tractors purchase snow blower attachments and clean driveways during the winter months!  It's huge business here!


And the pool deck was buried in snow...and this was from just one major storm!!  These photos make me appreciate summer even more!  My favourite months are from May til the end of December!  The rest of the months...ugh!!


Enough with winter!  Mr. Seventies came in with a beautiful, amazing smelling bouquet of lavender! from our gardens.  Oh, my how it gives off a beautiful scent!  I have dried lavender and filled small sachet bags in the past...tucked in with gifts for my girls. 


And lastly, I want to share a hand bag I ordered...for our upcoming trip.  Its an anti-theft shoulder bag with an RFID blocking card and slots for passport and a slash resistant shoulder strap.  There is also a hook that locks if you wish to hang it over a chair.  It's not overly big...about 9" x 10"...just big enough to carry the essentials, but not heavy across your body.  I ordered it in the wine colour.

Hope you are enjoying your day wherever you are!!
