OH MY, THOSE WERE QUITE THE DARING DAYS

I MOVED THE BIKE BACK AWAY FROM THE WINDOW BECAUSE THE GLARE FROM THE OUTSIDE SNOW MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR MY EYES TO READ MY KINDLE
 IN THE FOLDED UP POSITION, THE COTTER PIN CAN BE SEEN UPPER RIGHT LOCKING THE BIKE IN THAT POSITION
A few snowflakes in the air this morning and a whole bunch in the air this afternoon. We remained below freezing, but I am heartened by a stretch of above-freezing temps coming our way by the end of the week.  I slipped up to Goderich and back this morning.  Woodsy headed back to Stratford yesterday and will be back Friday.  Maybe with a few milder days coming up, the ice cream shops will be open.  Ya right, fat chance!!  Those folks are all likely stretched out on a warm beach in Mexico somewhere.  Woodsy and I did that a couple of times back in the mid 80's.  Oh my, those were quite the daring days for we two:))

 WITH A WESTERLY WIND KICKING THE LOOSE SNOW UP, I MADE MY WAY TO GODERICH AND BACK WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS
 ON PORTER'S HILL LINE IT LOOKS LIKE A TRAIN IS COMING THROUGH THE BLOWING SNOW

 I LIKE BIKING IN OUR SUNROOM AT NIGHT....SO QUIET AND PEACEFUL
GROANER'S CORNER:(( A Chinese person walks into a bar in America late one night, and he sees Steven Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushed over to him and asked for his autograph. Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Harbor, get out of here." The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombedyour  Harbor , it was the Japanese"."Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg. In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg a slap and says, "You sank the Titanic; my forefathers were on that ship." Shocked, Spielberg replies, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me." The Chinese guy replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the same."

Doctor, doctor, I keep seeing into the future. When did this first happen? Next Tuesday.

My wife and I decided not to have kids. The kids are taking it pretty hard.

Patient: Doctor, you must help me. I'm under such a lot of stress, I keep losing my temper with people.
Doctor: Tell me about your problem.
Patient: I just did, didn't I, you stupid idiot!!

Two students were arguing when their teacher entered the classroom. The teacher says, “Why are you arguing?” One boy answers, “We found a ten-dollar bill and decided to give it to whoever tells the biggest lie.” "You should be ashamed of yourselves," said the teacher, "When I was your age I didn’t even know what a lie was." The boys gave the ten dollars to the teacher.

  3. What a contrast between your snow PACKED roads and what I think of RIGHT NOW for warm sunny sandy beaches in Mexico. I've been into Mexico (not just across the border but further south too) a number of times in my life. I love the beaches and towns, and the wonderful people, almost as nice as Canadians. :-) Ok, I love gnomes too.
