MY QUEST FOR ANSWERS IS STILL ALIVE AND WELL

A short drive into and around Bayfield this morning.  Other than that I spent the rest of the day sitting by our toasty warm fireplace reading.  And yes, my quest for answers is still alive and well.  I just finished yet another mind-challenging eye opening book today entitled, The Science Behind Alien Encounters by Robert Farrell.  And I'll leave it there............... 

 A LONELY GAZEBO AWAITS NEXT SUMMER'S LAUGHTER AND CONVERSATIONS
GROANER'S CORNER:(( A sister and brother are talking to each other when the little boy gets up and walks over to his Grandpa and says, "Grandpa, please make a frog noise."  The Grandpa says, "No."  The little boy goes on, "Please .. please make a frog noise."  The Grandpa says, "No, now go play."  The little boy then says to his sister, "Go tell Grandpa to make a frog noise."The Grandpa says, "I just told your brother 'no' and I'm telling you 'no'." The little girl says, "Please .. please Grandpa make a frog noise." The Grandpa says, "Why do you want me to make a frog noise?"  The little girl replied, "Because mommy said when you croak we can go to Disney World!"

I'LL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW

Not one of my better days folks so I will try to find something to write about again tomorrow.

GROANER'S CORNER:(( There was a man walking alone along a beach. He comes across a bottle with a cork in it. The man picks up the bottle and pulls out the cork. A loud roar follows and a genie appears. The genie says to the man, "I'm a little tired today and I can only give you two wishes."  The man says "That's OK, two is enough." "First, I would like one billion dollars in a Swiss bank account."  Poof - The genie hands the man a paper and says "Here's the number to your account."  Next the man says, "Second, I would like to be irresistible to women."  Poof - the genie turned him into a box of chocolates.

THE WEATHER WAS NICE ENOUGH FOR A COUNTRY ROAD WALK

 AUTUMN BUSH LANE
Looking ahead at the 14-day weather forecast I figured today may be the last good day of the year so with that in mind Pheebs and I headed straightaway to our country road walking spot this morning.  How nice to get some paws and boots on the ground again.  With the recent crappy weather, I think it's been close to two weeks since our last enjoyable walk.  With neither Kelly, Pheebs, or I getting any younger, walking exercise becomes more important for all three of us.  I don't know how we're going to handle this winter, but for sure we gotta think of something.........

 I LOVE THESE ROLLING GREEN HILLS AND IN THE PHOTO BELOW WE ARE ON THE HIGHWAY HEADING FROM CLINTON TO GODERICH ENJOYING THE AUTUMN COLORS ALONG THE WAY
 WORKERS ARE BUSY AT GODERICH'S DOG WALKING AREA....THE MACHINE AT LEFT UNLOADS LARGE BOULDERS OFF THE TRUCK WHILE THE MACHINE AT RIGHT CAREFULLY PLACES THE BOULDERS ALONG THE SHORELINE TO STOP  EROSION

GROANER'S CORNER:((    "Yes, Theo, what is it?" asked the teacher.  "I don’t want to alarm you, Miss Davis, but my dad said if I don't get better grades, someone was going to be in big trouble."

Don't drink anything while vacationing in the Caribbean. Especially in Jamaica. You'll get the rums.

HAPPY RV FOLKS ON THEIR WAY SOUTH

 A QUIET BAYFIELD MORNING
Other than another beautiful Autumn day I really don't have anything much to say except to wish all my fellow RV Bloggers safe travels on their journeys to the warm sunny South.
GROANER'S CORNER:((  
A woman announces to her friend that she is getting married for the fourth time.  "How wonderful! But I hope you don't mind me asking what happened to your first husband?"  "He ate poisonous mushrooms and died."  "Oh, how tragic! What about your second husband?"  "He ate poisonous mushrooms too and died."  "Oh, how terrible! I'm almost afraid to ask you about your third husband."  "He died of a broken neck."  "A broken neck?"  "Ya, he wouldn't eat his mushrooms."

AND THAT'S ABOUT IT FOR ANOTHER SUNDAY

We were fortunate enough today to have us a nice bright sunny 52F day.  Scooter needed a run and some gas so Pheebs and I piled in and headed for Goderich.  Also had a few things at the Canadian Tire Store to pick up so that was our destination along with the Solo gas bar.  Of course a swing down around the harbor is always in order anytime we are there as well.

Turned our outside water off and drained the hoses this afternoon.  Tinkered with some stuff in the RV and that was about it for another day.

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A French man nearly got away with stealing a number of paintings from the Louvre.  However, after planning the robbery and getting in and out and past security, he was captured only three blocks away when his Econoline ran out of gas. When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied, “I had no Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh.”

Did you hear about that cat who swallowed a ball of yarn?  She had mittens!

IT'S GOING TO BE QUITE A STAMPEDE OF CANADIAN CHUCKWAGONS ALRIGHT

 ALL OF TONIGHT'S AUTUMN LEAF PICS WERE TAKEN JUST OUTSIDE NEIGHBOR MONICA'S KITCHEN WINDOW THIS AFTERNOON:))
Wanting to take advantage of today's better weather, Pheebs and I were soon home again after a short drive into and around Bayfield.  With more leaves falling now I wanted to stay ahead of that so raked up a bunch of maple and basswood leaves from the driveway.  It was a good day to repair the broken bird station so I got that done as well.  Installed the new anode rod in the motorhome I had bought last month today as well.  And Pheebs and I fitted in a walk around the Park's pond.  I know I did some other stuff too but at the time of tonight's writing, I already can't remember what they were.

 I DON['T THINK THIS FELLOW IS GOING TO WIN ANY FANCY PANTS FASHION AWARDS
 I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT I LIKE SQUARE WINDOWS IN BOATS
 LOOKS LIKE THIS CHAP  FROM A FEW DAYS AGO FINALLY GOT HIS RAZZLE DAZZLE BOAT OUT OF THE WATER AND FOUND A PLACE TO PARK IT FOR THE WINTER
Well, a lot of Canadian RV'ers will be in the final stages of packing up their rigs for the big rush to the U.S. border in the next couple days.  If this were four or five, ten, or a dozen years ago Kelly and I would have been right in that mash doing that same thing as well.  I foresee a great manic moshpit of RV's piling up at the border gates over the next few days and weeks.  When that border flood gate opens it's going to be an absolute stampede of Canadian chuck wagons alright.  Cartoonists should have a field day with this one:))
 OH IT IS QUITE THE SKILLED CARPENTER I ARE I ARE
OH-OH  IT LOOKS LIKE AL'S PLAYING WITH POWER TOOLS AGAIN
WELL,  IT AIN'T PRETTY BUT THERE IT IS BACK ON ITS POST AGAIN....BY THE WAY, THAT END PIECE OF UPRIGHT PLYWOOD ON THE END IS TO STOP SQUIRRELS FROM JUMPING IN THERE FROM A NEARBY TREE

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Tom is applying for a job as a signalman for the local railroad and is told to meet the inspector at the signal box.  The inspector decides to give Tom a pop quiz, asking: "What would you do if you realized that two trains were heading towards each other on the same track?"  Tom says: "I would switch one train to another track."  "What if the lever broke?" asks the inspector.  "Then I'd run down to the tracks and use the manual lever down there", answers Tom.  "What if that had been struck by lightning?" challenges the inspector.  "Then," Tom continued, "I'd run back up here and use the phone to call the next signal box."  "What if the phone was busy?"  "In that case," Tom argued, "I'd run to the street level and use the public phone near the station".  "What if that had been vandalized?"  "Oh well," said Tom, "in that case I would run into town and get my Uncle Leo".  This puzzled the inspector, so he asked, "Why would you do that?"  "Because Uncle Leo has never seen a big train wreck before."

------------------------

After writing a simple equation on the board the teacher asked if anyone could solve the problem.  Little Johnny walked up to the board, erased it and said, “Problem Solved".
