Fishy, fishy, fishy!

Husband bought fresh red snapper from a local fisherman, actually he wants fresh halibut and fresh crabs but instead they only caught red snappers so better than nothing. We had snappers for dinner.





Right now my husband has no time to go fishing and crabbing. Why go fishing when you can buy something not so costly, but at the time when fuel (gas) is much cheaper than previous years... only time will tell when the next salmon fishing maybe at summer time.

We are busy doing gardening instead at this time of the year. Although, didn't come here in Canada to become a farmer. Gardening is something to look forward when life gets so boring for ordinary seniors like us. While other seniors would rather visit different gardens everywhere where their legs and feet could walk.

It's been nice outside, bright sunshiny days for several days and at this time, it is a cloudy day with possiblity of rain showers, maybe.  Unpredictability of weather at the island is like asking myself "whether I like it or not." Simply because hot, hot weather temperature that goes up to over 20 C is such a big NO! A 20 C feels like 40 C. HOT! I don't mind if the house has air conditioning unit but we only have ceiling fan and a stand fan and when it's hot in Canada it is really like desert hot! Hard to believe that eh?  You wonder why there are wildfires when it get unbearably hot in BC and Alberta. We don't like to suffer what those Australians had suffered during the wildfires and bushfires last January 2020 that consumed billions of wildlife animals and other incredible creatures including some of your favorite koalas, kiwis, kangaroos, your favourite crocodiles...  ?

Watched RED, the movie. A team of veteran/seniors who teamed up their forces to topple down the VP and all the crooks surrounding him doing corruptions since the Guatemalan war. Veteran actors such as John Malkovich, Ernest Borgnine, Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman, and Bruce Willis showed they are not deplorable and not expendable.They showed what it takes that they can still do it. Bravo!
