Pea soup again this morning, getting used to it [relatively speaking].

Yesterday it cleared off mid afternoon leading to a nice evening. I was reminded that it has been 13 years since we have had weather similar to this summer, without looking it up I would guess this one is a little warmer than 1996. The temperatures are not bone chilling; it’s just the constant fog and light rain that is annoying.

I was heading out for a brief walk in the afternoon when a couple of ladies stopped and warned me that if I was heading up to one of my regular routes I should be aware that two ‘big ol moose’ were in that vicinity.
We did a different route not knowing how Siutik would react stumbling upon a big ol moose or two, not sure how I would react either.

Team Nain has taken the lead in the cross country challenge in the Small Steps Big Results program. We are just over half way with 4,631,624 steps = 3,508.8 [Kms].

Team Nain now has 52 members, the next largest team has 32, the team with the second most steps [3,504,165] has only 8 members so they are doing very good considering there size.

Fran, Siutik and I are doing our small part for Team Nain, if we keep up this overall average we should be in Victoria well before the dead line of September 25.

Thar be a big bad world out there some place.

Down the dock this morning the Matthew was re fueling and taking on water [through a hose] while this barge was taking on fuel and other sundries to take up to Hebron.

Those crated blocks of polished anorthosite are for the Memorial that is to be constructed there in honor of the relocates.
There is a big bash to be held at Hebron next week, the 10th , that is to include the Premier and other [not sure how to refer to politicians these days] lets just say persons interested, weather permitting.
