I GUESS I GET A LITTLE MIXED UP SOMETIMES

 A NICE LOOKING MORNING AT GODERICH'S ROTARY COVE ON THE SHORES OF LAKE HURON.....'ONTARIO'S WESTCOAST'

I had to do a bit of talking Sunday night to convince myself to head outside in the colder evening air.  Had it been a nice warm night, I wouldn't have had to have that conversation.  I would have simply skipped merrily out the door and been on my way.  Heading for Bayfield's beach, I just barely made the sunset.  Managed a few photos and then took myself for a drive around Bayfield before once again heading off out into the countryside.  Arriving at my night sky spot, I was curious to see if I could see the constellation, Pleiades, which, incidentally, is the logo on all Subaru cars.  Skies were partially clear and I was lucky enough to see the quarter Moon and the two Planets, Jupiter and Venus.  However, due to the rapidly growing cloud cover, I did not see the Pleiades.  A few posts ago, while at the same spot, I said I had seen Planet Mars, but that was incorrect.  I believe Mars is now in the morning sky and not the evening sky, as well as Saturn, which I might also have mistated.  I guess I get a little mixed up sometimes:))

Our overnight temps dipped to below freezing at 30F overnight and the day began under a heavy cloud cover.  Looking forward to our warmer weather making a comeback starting Tuesday.  Gotta get my grass seed growing.  Needing a few things in Goderich this morning, off I went with nice big patches of blue sky overhead.  Coffee to go at McDs' and down to the harbor I went.  Following that, I slipped through A&W's drive-thru and nailed myself a Mozza burger to go.  They have had them on as a special for the past couple of weeks.  It's a short hop from A&W to Walmart, so I stopped in there to round up a few grocery items and then headed home under still sunny skies.  Not wanting to waste today's sunshine after arriving home, I dressed warm and headed back outside.  I filled my time with half a dozen puttery little things, including a different setup for the electrical stuff in our front yard, like the pond pump and night lights, etc.  I'm a happy little camper when I am outside puttering around:))

 A QUICK PHOTO OF 'OLD LONESOME' ON MY WAY HOME AND NOTICE HIS THREE LITTLE BIRDIE PALS

Some readers may remember last week when the two halves of the latest mobile home arrived in the Park.  Each half came in on a separate trailer.  I'm assuming both those halves couldn't be moved onto the concrete pad right away because of last week's rain and resulting mud.  Today, they were moved into place, and the two halves joined together.    

 NOTICE IN THE FOREGROUND THE AXELS AND WHEEL HUBS THAT THE MOBILE HOME HALVES ROLLED IN ON

 AT SOME POINT IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUGURE THERE WILL BE HOMES ALONG BOTH SIDES OF THIS ROAD

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man was stopped by the police around 2 am. The officer asked him where he was going at that time of night. The man replied, "I'm on my way to a lecture about alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late." The officer then asked, "Really? Who's giving that lecture at this time of night?" The man replied, "That would be my wife."

Two men were in the process of inventing a new brand of gum. They were arguing over the fact that their new gum was too hard and brittle and didn't have the right consistency. One of the inventors kept arguing that they simply had to add more liquid to their primary secret ingredient, code named "Yewin".
The other man argued adamantly. "No, No, No! It's not wetter Yewin that counts... it's how you ply the gum!"

- I thought the dryer was shrinking my clothes. Turns out it was the refrigerator all along.

- I can tolerate algebra, maybe even a little calculus, but geometry is where I draw the line.

- Whoever stole my depression medication.  I hope you’re happy now.

- How does a penguin build his house? Igloos it together.

- I’m afraid for the calendar.  Its days are numbered.

- I could tell a joke about pizza, but it’s a little cheesy.

- A  Toyota Prius just tried to race me at the light...I totally had it for the first 100 meters, but I can only walk so fast.

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural History are marveling at the dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard, "Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?" The guard replies, "They are 3 million, four years, and six months old." "That's an awfully exact number," says the tourist. "How do you know their age so precisely?" The guard answers, "Well, the dinosaur bones were three million years old when I started working here, and that was four and a half years ago."
