Again, taking advantage of the cooler morning air, I skipped my morning walk and right away got at loading up the utility trailer with more stuff for 'Pete the scrapyard guy.' He was home when I got there, and he helped me unload the stuff. Pete's always a happy guy with more stuff coming in, and I, of course, am now always a happy guy to be getting rid of more stuff. See....it's how stuff happens eh:))
Home again, I vacuumed the living room floor, then headed back outside to work on my next project, which is the area where we once parked our RVs. And I use the word RV (Recreational Vehicle) in a plural sense because we certainly did have a lot of RVs over the years. (1997-2019) 1 Travel Trailer, 1 Fifth wheel, 1 Class B Van, 5 Class Cs, and 2 Motorhomes. By 2 o'clock this afternoon, after using my electric roto-tiller, I again turned into a sweaty 167-pound ball of sticky paste. Only one remedy for that, and I was soon in the shower. Stayed in there so long I nearly drowned.

Well, it was Canada Day today, and the last couple of years, folks from our Park got together and decorated their golf carts for a parade around the Park. I always took pictures of them going by our driveway. Last year, Kelly and our neighbor Monica sat out on lawn chairs to watch the galloping gang go by. I knew about the parade today, but I forgot about it. In fact, when they would have gone by about 3 p.m. I was splashing around in the shower. Between my knowing about something and my remembering that something, there exists light years of empty space in my mind between the two. Oh well, maybe next year. Come to think of it, I'm not sure where next year even is yet. Light years of empty space in my mind I tell ya....light years of empty space.

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression, he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." With even greater emphasis, he said, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." And then finally, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." He sat down. The song leader then stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn # 365: "Shall We Gather at the River."

Canada Day is special...and the Blue Jays won the baseball game 12-4. (I don't watch it, just happened to be walking past the TV and saw the score). You can catch your Park's parade next year...wonderful pictures again, Al. Sweet Kelly and Pheebs. Loved 'em.
ReplyDeleteI watched it and I'll watch today's game too. Love those Blue Jays (Bev in Nanaimo BC)
DeleteDidn't comment last night, but your photos of the deer were fantastic. Also, haven't had an Aunt Jean update for awhile. Hope all is well with her. Take care.
