Haliburton Highlands’ Happenings!

Chapleau River Mulligan’s Bay Sunset Ontario (March 14 2013)

I would love to visit this spot on Mulligan’s Bay and see one of  it’s sunsets live and in person. Unless it is raining. They have a beautiful sunset every night of the week on this area of the Chapleau River.

14-Day Weather Trend West Guilford Haliburton Highlands

I can’t think of a single thing to say about the 14-Day Weather Trend for West Guilford/ the Haliburton Highlands. It looks yucky.

Maple Syrup Harvest

A funny thing I just realized –and it’s not that there is nothing yummier than pancakes with fresh maple syrup (see above). No, what I realized is that I taught my son to pronounce the word syrup, the way I way I was taught. Despite him being 100% Midwest American he pronounces it “seer-up.’ Here in the Chicago area (and maybe the rest of the country–not sure), it is  pronounced ‘sir-up’. As I said, it is indisputable that no matter what you call it, genuine maple syrup is one of the yummiest taste sensations you’ll experience!

Maple Syrup Harvest

Tapping Sugar Maples is a guaranteed good, if not slightly sticky time.  Maple Syrup Harvest traditions continue as  sap is gathered wearing snowshoes, carrying the harvest in bucket and boiling down the sap on a wood-fired evaporator.

14-Day Weather Forecast Haliburton Highlands November 17 – 30

I feel like I could copy & paste the weather forecast every other week as it seems to me to be remarkably similar–a couple of weeks with normal rainfall & a couple more with fairly dry conditions  My spouse the gardener says that this weather pattern gives things ‘a chance to dry out’ but I’m not entirely sure the climatologists would agree. Having the high and low temperatures be almost indistinguishable seems an odd circumstance indeed. This weekend looks quite nice so be sure to peruse the many goings-on in the Haliburton Highlands area and get out and enjoy the season!

Based on the 14-day extended weather outlook. I’d say though winter is coming , it is not quite here yet.

I’m glad to see more normal rainfall. The temperatures, both high and low are above average–or average most of the time. The forecast lows are all above the norm. I would hope since the rain is on and off week-to-week that the water tables are getting some action.

Yay, no fall drought!
