I WAS ACTUALLY OUTSIDE WITHOUT A SHIRT ON TODAY

Well, I could have headed out Wednesday evening to check out the sunset after posting my blog, but I was just too plumb tired.  I did step out onto the back deck and, through an opening in the tall pine trees, I took a couple quick handheld pictures of the Moon.

THIS WAS AN iPHONE SHOT THROUGH SUBIE'S MOONROOF TUESDAY NIGHT OF THE MOON SITTING ON TOP OF A POWER POLE
Another big bright, and sunny Spring day found me out this morning, merrily strolling along at my country road walking spot.  Lots of hellos to everything around me, as well as above me.    Home again, I spent much of the day digging up and relocating ferns.  Kelly and I had carried home a couple buckets of ferns that we had dug up from alongside the Bayfield River about twenty years ago, and after planting those ferns, they have taken hold over the years and are popping up all over the place now.  We got up to over 70F today, and I was actually outside without a shirt on.  That warm sun just felt so energizing.  Oh, the wonderful wonders of Spring:))

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A priest dies and is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates. Ahead of him is a guy who's dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, a leather jacket, and jeans. Saint Peter addresses him, "Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to admit you into the Kingdom of Heaven ?" The guy replies, "I'm Joe Cohen, taxi driver, from New York ." Saint Peter consults his list. He smiles and says to the taxi driver, "Take this silken robe and golden staff and enter the Kingdom of Heaven ." Now it's the priest's turn. He stands erect and booms out, "I am the Right Reverend Joseph Snow, pastor of Saint Mary's for the last forty-three years." Saint Peter consults his list. He says to the priest, "Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom of Heaven ." "Just a minute," says the priest. "That man was a taxi driver. Why does he get a silken robe and golden staff?" "Results," shrugged Saint Peter........... "While you preached, people slept. When he drove, people prayed." Moral of the story: It's Performance, Not Position that Counts

- In a relationship one person is always right and the other person is a male.

- I'd like two pork chops, asked the woman of her butcher, and make them lean. Yes maam, said the polite butcher, standing them on end.  Which way?

- "Mommy, one of the kids at school called me a sissy." "So what did you do, Billy?" "I hit him with my purse!"

- I was sitting at a bar with a friend the other night when he casually pointed across the bar from us and said, "see those two old drunks sitting there...that's going to be us in ten years." I looked and him and said, "that's a mirror stupid!"

A young man bought an expensive piece of jewelry as a present for his girlfriend. “Don’t you want her name engraved on it?” asked the clerk. The young man thought for a moment, and then, ever the realistic, steadfastly replied, “No, just engrave it: To My One and Only Love. That way, if we break up and she throws it back to me in anger, I can use it again.”

  1. So happy you got up into 70 degrees! About time! Lovely moon shots...
    I love ferns, glad they're happy at your place. All that work 20 years ago has paid off handsomely.

  2. Gorgeous moon. Gorgeous bird. It's warmer here in western Washington too, probably up in BC too. Seems overdue, but we'll take it when we can get it. Scary thought of you without a shirt. :-) EEEk!
