Morning Marc, good luck with the doxies today. A nice day here is in store and an old co-worker from Calgary is dropping by this afternoon to play some remember when. SAP is up with 100 of the funniest video clips ever, how to use red leaf lettuce and "Why do they call it "getting your dog fixed" if afterwards it doesn't work anymore?"
Thanks, Don. Final grooming going on just now, and then it's off to the show. Later ..............

Morning Marc, Don, et al. Good luck at the dog show Marc.
And, "HAPPY AUGUST 4" Marc ..... I believe it's your anniversary in ehMacland. Wow, that date in 2001 was some 70,000+ posts ago!!
Yes, John, it was 11 years ago today that I ventured forth into ehMacLand ............ and I haven't looked back yet.
So, how are you today?

Doing just fine Marc, and looking forward to a nice morning, out and about with my lady and daughter, dim sum, and chatter. Warm day predicted, so we'll just relax the afternoon away.
Enjoy your day, with the dog show, et al.
Cheers!

Afternoon/evening all. Hope the day has been treating everyone well.
We were out this morning, and did our Saturday dim sum thing with daughter -- a chance to catch up on what's been happening, and share some good food. Always a fun & filling time!!
Wow, summer finally got to these parts!! Should hit (if it has not already?) 30C, and supposedly again tomorrow, or possibly even higher. Very warm for this part of BC. Heading out for a break on the balcony now, while it's still shaded -- it will not be for too much longer, and will be in full sunshine and 'sizzling'. Like the latter when on a beach, under a palm tree, but in an apartment, and in the city, it's a touch warm.

Happy "long weekend" ....
Evening, John. Summer hit us hard today with temps in the lower 30s before the humidex reading. With the humidex, unofficially, it was 40C, making today the hottest day in St.John's since they started to keep records back in the early 1880s.
Back from the dog show. Daisy got a 3rd in the seniors event, Gus got a group 4th in the hound group (this was his first show) and Maggie got a group 4th as well in the second show of the day. So, all in all, it was a successful day.

Thanks, I was waiting for the dog show update -- good for the dogs (and of course, you two as well)!! Sounds like a fine day was had by all.
Wow, you're sure having some summer back there this year!!

No long weekend here ............. not sure why the stock markets are closed tomorrow.
Still 30C with the humidex. Deborah did a special marinate for some chicken which we had with a salad ................... all done on the BBQ and eaten outside. Far too warm for eating inside. Once every five years or so there is a day when we wished we had AC or a pool. Today was one of those days. Drinking wine by candlelight after dinner our on our back deck had to surfice.

Sounds great Marc .... especially the wine by candelight after dinner out on the back porch part!! Very romantic!!
Re: the "long" weekend ... the first Monday of August is a 'contrived' holiday in many Provinces. There was no holiday in August, so they made one!! It's called "BC Day" out here. But like most holidays these days, most retail stores will be open for business, and many workers will not get a holiday.
