Aug 30 to Sept 5

Monday
Very hot today, abt 33 C. We did Tae Bo this morning. Worked inside this afternoon on various documents. Froze some more tomatoes. We also picked about 6 4 qt baskets more. Cut the grass late in the afternoon. Was it hot even in the shade. The sweat was just rolling off me. Walked 10 km.

Tuesday
Very hot again today, abt 35 C. Hazy in the late afternoon, smog I suppose. We went for an early morning bike ride. Worked a bit more on the Schultz article. I also spent some time on the tour booklet for our bus tour to the Mohawk Valley in late September. Biked 10.8 km. Walked 3.3 km.

Wednesday
Very hot again today, abt 35 C. Hazy. We went for an mid morning bike ride. Worked a bit more on the Schultz article. Did some work on my computer backing up files. Biked 11.1 km. Walked 5.3 km.

Thursday.
Another humid day with a lot of cloud. Some rain showers late afternoon, abt 25 C. We stayed in most of the day. Froze tomatoes and made some tomatoe sauce for a spaghetti dinner on Saturday. Worked on cleaning up my computer files, modified the article on William Schultz, updated my web page, and uploaded new files for my link family to Ancestry and World Connect. I am reading a historical fiction book on the Mohawk Valley of New York, called "Clarissa Putman of Tribes Hill, by John J Vrooman". This is a story from the the mid 1700s the time of the Sir William Johnson and Sir John Johnson era and the Revolution. Walked 7.9 km.

Friday
Still a humid day. We went out for lunch to celebrate our anniversary and then went to see a movie. Julia Roberts in Eat, Pray, Love. The movie was OK. Walked 4.3 km.

Saturday
Some rain today. After the rain ended a cold front went through and got rid of the humidity. Windy and cool. More work on the computer. We had company for supper, and spaghetti and meat balls, with home made tomatoe sauce. Our daughter and husband then took us out to see another movie, The American, with George Clooney. Scenery was nice and the movie was OK as well. Walked 7.2 km.

Sunday
Cloudy, cool and windy. Finished reading my book about Clarissa Putman. It was an engaging book about the Revolution along the the Mohawk River through the romance of the Johnson family. Biked 9.7 km. Walked 4.9 km.
