Wonderful sunny saturday and cleaning our Blinds today.

Where are we today ?

Rock Glen resort Arkona Ontario

           More sunshine and great weather boy are we living the good life! Lotsa things we can do at this time of year when we are having this awesome weather. So today is gonna be sunny and warm all day 22c (72f) perfect to do some fall cleaning.

            In the fall we like remove out metal venetian blinds and clean them.  To remove the blinds I have to remove the valance that holds then in place. So I set to work to remove 2 from our living area and 2 from the bedroom. This is the biggest part on the chore.

            Then I hang them on a double line I strung up outside and proceed to spray the with "Awesome" cleaner that I pick up at the dollar store in the good ole USA. Wait a few minutes and just hose therm down and wait to drip dry. No wiping no scrubbing so easy to do.

this cleaner is Awesome!

sprayed with cleaner and just hose down

          While I had the valences out they are cleaned too, spray with cleaner, hose them down and let dry in the sun.

       By early afternoon everything is dry and I can re-install the valences and clean blinds. Sure glad that we have these metal blinds, so easy to clean and re string when necessary, still look like new after 14 years!

        Got this done in time to prep supper tonight and having a pork roast on our Weber Q, Sweet potatoes with apples, brown sugar and cinnamon, and carrots in foil. Check my recipe blog or click HERE.While it was cooking we had a nice social hour with our friends Rob and Pat.

Taters, apples,cinnamon ready for the Q 

          Preheat the grill and turn down low drop the roast on for 30 minutes then the taters and carrots for another 30 minutes until the pork reaches 160 f, done to perfection.  For the recipes check my other blog at the top right of the side bar or click here for the Roast pork on the Q.

so moist and tasty

          We are so lucky to have this awesome weather here at this time of year, just lovin' it!

          After supper we were invited over to Joe and Nancy's for a campfire at 8pm. So got some stuff done and wandered on over with our chairs and beverage. 

          A great time we had with this great fall weather, about 20 people there around the fire, telling stories, jokes and a lots laughs, such a great time we had. But we do have to come home at some time and get our beauty sleep. Or maybe just getting too old for these all nighters any more. But thats ok it sure was fun.

sure do love this lifestyle

          Thanks for stopping on in to visit, too bad you were not here for this wonderful campfire.
