'DON'T RUSH ME', I ALWAYS SAY

 A NEAT-O HOT ROD SEEN AT THE GODERICH HARBOR THIS MORNING

Another fabulous weather day as I headed my way to Goderich this morning.   I skipped my walk because my legs were sore after Monday's tasks outside around the house, and especially my right leg.  I have a feeling something might be slightly amiss with the new hip I had done a year and a half ago.  Maybe, maybe not.  Backing things off today, I concentrated my efforts on cleaning the Subaru's interior.  I'll try an evening walk tonight at my country road spot.

 LOOKS LIKE A BIG SHIP IN THE HARBOR

 THE FEDERAL MOSEL IN HARBOR THIS MORNING TAKING ON A LOAD OF GRAIN

 I HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART SEEING FELLOW RV FOLKS OUT ENJOYING THEIR LIFESTYLE

 THIS OLDER CHAP WAS MOVING RIGHT ALONG

 WAITING FOR A FAMILY MEMBER AND A MORNING  OUTING ON THE BOARDWALK

I THINK THE LITTLE FELLA IS ENJOYING HIS MORNING ALONGSIDE LAKE HURON

OF COURSE NOT EVERYBODY IS STROLLING ALONG THE BOARDWALK

 HERE, THE BAYFIELD RIVER BEGINS TO MINGLE WITH THE BLUE-GREEN WATERS OF LAKE HURON

 AT THE FAR END OF THE GODERICH SALT MINE, THE RIVER FLOWS INTO THE LAKE

Back in 2005, our black and white border collie, Checkers, while in the living room, spotted a squirrel on our back deck.  Without a second's hesitation, Checkers took off at full speed chasing that squirrel.  Remember, Checkers was in the living room, and the squirrel was outside on the deck with only a screen door between them.  Needless to say, the squirrel quickly got away, but the screen door didn't, and Checkers went right through it. Now, keep in mind that this incident occurred thirty years ago.  Today, I 'finally' took that screen door to Home Hardware in Goderich to have a new screen put in.  Sometimes my decisions take a little longer to formulate than other times.  In the interim, we found the ripped screen convenient for our dogs, Max, Checkers, Cora, and Pheebs to go in and out into our fenced-in back yard any time they liked.  With our canine Pals using that door a lot, we never had to worry about any critters coming in because of our daily in and out doggy patrol.  Now, fast forward to this summer.  With Max, Checkers, and little Cora gone over a decade now, and Pheebs gone since the end of April, there has been an uptake of furry little critters coming and going through that unguarded broken screen door.  The chipmunks come in, tip toe quietly around behind my recliner, and head for the kitchen, where I have a big container full of birdseed.  They fill their cheek pouches and then scurry off back through the torn screen for home.  I swear, they've got a path worn in the rug.  Woodsy finally convinced me to pour some serious thought into getting that screen door fixed, so this morning, that is what I did.  Hey, it only took me thirty years to do this.  'Don't rush me,' I always say.

MET THE NIFTY ROADSTER COMING BACK FROM ROTARY COVE

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man moves into a new flat and invites a few of his friends around for a housewarming drink. He's got lots of lovely furniture, but then one of his friends sees an old hammer hanging on the wall and says, "What's that dirty old hammer doing there?" The man replies: "Oh, that's not a hammer, it's a talking clock. Look, I'll show you." So he picks up the hammer and starts banging it against the wall, whereupon a voice comes from next door shouting: "Keep it down in there, it's almost half past ten!"

There were three little morons riding in the back of a truck. Suddenly the tire popped and the truck drove off the edge into the water. Two of the morons swam up and survived, but the other little moron drowned because he couldn't get the tail gate open.

Moe: "Where did Larry go?"
Curly: "He’s round in front."
Moe: "I know what he looks like, I just wanted to know where he went."

Hoss rode into town to buy a bull. Unfortunately, when he bought it, he was left with one dollar. Hoss needed to tell his wife to come with the truck and get the bull, but telegrams cost one dollar per word. Hoss said to the telegram man,"OK. I have my one word-'comfortable'." Why do you want to tell her that?” asked the telegram man. "Oh, she's not the best reader," Hoss said. "She'll read it really slowly". (Com-for-ta-ble, get it?)

After spending 3-1/2 hours enduring the long lines, surly clerks, and insane regulations at the Department of Motor Vehicles, a lady stopped at a toy store to pick up a gift for her son. She brought her selection - a baseball bat to the cash register. "Cash or charge," the clerk asked.
"Cash," she snapped. Then apologizing for her rudeness, she explained, "I've spent the afternoon at the motor-vehicle bureau. I am not too sane right now!!" "Shall I gift wrap the bat?" the clerk asked sweetly, "Or are you going back?"
