Well it's cool and grey outside but the rain is supposed to hold off until noon so I'm heading out soon. Going to need a Venti-sized something hot this morning to keep the chill out of my bones!

Well I got up in time....to see the rain and low clouds scudding along with the leaves and other assorted debris in the 25+ wind, and decided to pass on the 200km round trip for a 'coffee and commiserate'...don't mind driving the car in the rain, etc, but just couldn't get motivated or inspired this morning, although it would have been nice to meet Mr. Bulmer!

Looks like a better week coming up but the weekend is work, back into the friendly skies!

It was a chilly morning, just 8 degrees with no sun relief. I didn't see any rain in town although JJ had to put his roof up for the 5th time (ever!) as he caught some drizzle in Stittsville. No snow however!

Good turn out, especially considering the weather:







And our guest of honour:





Great meeting our newcomers, and best of luck in Toronto next week John!

Glad to see a few folks made it...poured here most of the morning, the system is to the south and so more precip the farther south you are. Nice to see John's car! I had almost the exact same car...even down to the wheels and fogs :-).

The Weather Network is calling for 26 and sunny for next Sunday... John was a week too early to visit our city!

Great to see this taking off guys! I hope you'll have a winter location as well? I'm going to be in Ottawa for at least 3 months starting mid-Nov and would love to have something to do Sunday mornings!
