The Online Issues.

We had a heat wave and I for one did not like it. It lasted for the better part of a week and several daily high temp records were broken. Squamish hit 34C on Tuesday. Night time lows were up in the high teens so while it did cool off at night, it took its time about it. Riding to the gondola each morning was comfortably cool but by mid morning on our ride home it was uncomfortably hot. The heat wave broke on Friday. Unfortunately, there was no rain in the cooler front that came through and now the forests are very dried out. The snow cover up in the mountains is shrinking fast and thats not good.

Wednesday was a very busy day for us old farts who are used to being busy doing next to nothing. After our ride to and then back from said gondola, we had a few minutes to relax before a social worker type case worker dropped by to see how we are doing. Her main ‘topic’ was future planning. Very necessary but also very confusing and elaborate. We now have some forms to work through as well as a lot of stuff to think about and make decisions about. Then, there was the day program at the 55 centre in the afternoon that I’ve got Sue into. Its aimed at people with cognitive issues. Most there are further gone that she is but anything that helps with keeping the brain and body active is good.

Then, at 5:30 pm we walked up the street to George the dog’s house. Mell and Mark had invited us to dinner. (They don’t have A/C so it was quite hot in their house). Dinner was great. When we went to leave, Sue’s shoes were missing. At some point George had taken Sue’s shoes and put them in the back yard, same as he did the last time we were there. Silly dog.
