SO EDUCATIONAL, SO ENTERTAINING, AND SO MUCH TO LEARM

 ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL LATE AUGUST MORNING OVER A RIPENING BEAN FIELD 
Luckily, after a few wispy clouds on Tuesday evening, skies cleared, and it was a relaxing walk I had on my always peaceful country road.  Later, I stopped for a while at my night-sky spot before heading home. For me, it was another summer evening well spent.

 TUESDTAY EVENING'S WISPY CLOUDS AT SUNSET
 THE NEARLY FULL MOON EMERGING FROM A LOW CLOUD BAND
Our days are beautiful now that daytime temperatures have lessened and the heavy humidity has greatly diminished.  Took advantage of that this morning and whisked myself around, taking care of errands.  Three Bayfield stops, with the first one being birdseed at Porter's Hill Wild Bird Seed Company.  Next was Michael's Pharmacy to drop off a prescription, and a stop at Tuckersmith Communications to clear up a small billing problem. Not slowing down, I then headed for Goderich to grab three new boxes of #1 coffee filters at Home Hardware. From there, and with a McD's coffee in hand, it was down to the harbor and beach areas to try my luck at some candid drive-by photos.  After a stop at Walmart for a few things, I returned a digital clock to the Canadian Tire Store.  A power outage overnight Monday knocked out the living room digital clock that sits by the TV.  It had big red numbers that I could easily see.  The new clock had big blue numbers, but with my compromised eyes, I just couldn't see them.  I did find a cheaper clock at Walmart with red digital numbers that I can see just fine.  

 A FINE DAY FOR FOLKS TO SPEND TIME AT GODERICH'S ROTARY COVE BEACH
Home again, I thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon reading on the front porch and also on my exercise bike. 

 A FEW HORSES ALONG THE WAY ON TIPPERARY LINE
With late-day overcast skies, I'll likely only do my country road walk this evening and come straight home again.  Looking forward to settling in with my YouTube channel.  So educational, so entertaining, and so much to learn....... Update:: At the time of publishing this, I can hear thunder, and my Exeter radar site shows a storm cell thundering its way across Lake Huron from Michigan, and it is headed right for us.  Therefore......no evening walk:))

 OH HOW I LOVE MY DRIVES THROUGH THE COUNTRYSIDE
GROANER'S CORNER:(( Driving to work, a gentleman had to swerve to avoid a box that fell out of the truck in front of him. Seconds later, a policeman pulled him over for reckless driving. Fortunately, another office had seen the carton in the road. The policemen stopped traffic and recovered the box. It was found to contain large upholstery tacks. "I'm sorry, Sir," the first trooper told the driver, "but I am still going to have to write you a ticket." Amazed, the driver demanded to know the reason. The trooper replied. "Tacks evasion.

- Three men were in a boat and had four cigarettes, but no lighter, so they threw one cigarette overboard, and the whole boat became a cigarette lighter.

    I always love your evening/night photos. Beautiful sky! Then the rest of the photos show a perfect summer day. Sounds like you had one of those especially nice days.
