An odd night with two power outages (and attendant screeching of detectors), the rain which was forecast not showing up, considerable dog nervousness, and finally a belated shower.

Over to Providence Bay (with the next door neighbors) to check out the new coffee shop/art gallery and for fish and chips at Lake Huron Fish and Chip (or whatever it's called—the sign has weathered away pretty much). Illustrated below, the mural on the side of what used to be a hardware store back when Prov was more of a town, but which now sells lattes and lithographs.

Mighty west wind all day blowing some of the humidity away and cooling things down a bit. Garden in desperate need of water, AGAIN.
