| A LONE CORMORANT ON A ROCK AT GODERICH'S ROTARY COVE |
With my large white plastic pail, a third filled with water in one hand and my blue fishing net (no, I'm not a fisherman) I set out two days ago, and commenced with my annual front yard frog pond round up. Each year, I catch the little froggy fellers and transport them via wheelbarrow over to the Park's pond a few hundred yards away. Our front yard pond is too shallow for the frogs to spend the winter in, so I take them to the big pond where they can burrow down into the mud for their winter hibernation. So far, I have caught and relocated three frogs. Or, have I relocated the same three frogs after they hopped back to our front pond in the dead of night? From my past frog catching experience over the past decade, it's likely the latter:((

Two questions from readers to answer tonight, and thank you for the questions. First, from an anonymous reader, "So when you were reading Delores Cannons books, the only thing I was left with (not the desire to go read them all) was this question: Delores said they had tried this two(?) times before. What was she talking about"? In her series 'The Convoluted Universe' I read four and a half of her five books about four years ago and I have to answer this reader's question with an, I don't know'. Her books are chock-full of so much information that it is hard for my mind to retain much of what I have read. Sorry, anonymous, I wish I could have had an answer for you.........Carin, in my sidebar's 'Shout Box' asks regarding the Sunday night television show 'The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch',"what do you think is in the Mesa"?? Great question, and I'm sure there are millions of viewers wondering the exact same thing. I'm kind of leaning towards the U.S. Government having something to do with it, but many of the strange happenings on the ranch suggest something much bigger, and much stranger. Maybe it's a collaboration of the government and alien technology. Maybe it's a crashed alien spacecraft, or some kind of underground facility run by the U.S. Military. I guess we will all have to stay tuned to The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. Will they ever find that Mesa?? I don't know, and maybe it's an answer we're all better off not knowing. Umm, ya but I still wanna know!!

Woodsy rolled in Tuesday afternoon, and I'm glad she did. I had an appointment for 3 p.m. today to have the Subaru undercoated at Krown Rustproofing in Goderich, and if Woodsy hadn't been here to remind me of that appointment, I would have totally forgotten about it. And, here's another nice bonus...the house smells like home cooking again instead of peanut butter sammiches.

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A young man called his mother and announced excitedly that he had just met the woman of his dreams. Now what should he do? His mother had an idea: "Why don't you send her flowers, and on the card invite her to your apartment for a home-cooked meal?" He thought this was a great strategy, and a week later, the woman came to dinner. His mother called the next day to see how things had gone "I was totally humiliated," he moaned. "She insisted on washing the dishes." "What's wrong with that?" asked his mother. "We hadn't started eating yet."--------------------------------------
- Did you hear about the guy who tried to date a nun? He wanted to take her to the county fair, but she declined on account of she had taken a vow of abstinence from Carnival pleasures.
- “I don't mind kids playing hopscotch in most places, but my driveway is where I draw the line.”

One lovely morning, Ben and Thomas were out golfing. Ben slices his ball deep into a wooded ravine. He grabs his 8-iron and proceeds down the embankment into the ravine in search of his ball. Ben searches diligently through the thick underbrush, and suddenly he spots something shiny. As he gets closer, he realizes that the shiny object is in fact an 8-iron in the hands of a skeleton lying near an old golf ball.
Ben excitedly calls out to his golfing partner: "Hey Thomas, come here, I've got big trouble down here." Thomas comes running over to the edge of the ravine and calls out, "What's the matter, Ben?" Ben shouts back in a nervous voice, "Throw me my 7-iron! Looks like you can't get out of here with an 8-iron."

So glad you have company with you and good home made cooking❤️
ReplyDeleteSecond picture up, Fish Lips. These AI things are really weird.
ReplyDeleteLast one, bloody beehive tendrils with a woman attached. Nice drink.
Just wanted to add that a quick Google search, for those who wondered, gave this response to the Dolores Cannon books: "In Dolores Cannon's work, when she or her subjects refer to having "done this two times before," they are referencing the concept of a soul's incarnation on Earth to assist with the planet's transition to a "New Earth". This idea is most prominently explored in her book The Three Waves of Volunteers and the New Earth.
ReplyDeleteThe "two times before" refers to two previous "waves" of volunteers who had come to Earth for a similar mission. "
Wow - thanks!
DeleteHey Al, your iPhone has a great calendar for appointments *grin*. I look at my phone's calendar on a Sunday to see what/where I'll be at appointments during the following week. Glad that you've got that delish home cooking from Woodsy. But peanut butter is good too.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I get such a kick from the annual frog transfer - but I do!! Those skies are incredible. More than a little spooky! The little guy with his little weiner dog is too cute. Love the umbrellas - feels very French!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing the cormorant photo.
