KELLY PUTS THE JEEP THROUGH IT'S PACES

DSC_8654
I can always tell when Thanksgiving is approaching.  Kelly comes home a few days ahead with a dead turkey under her arm.  Not one of those big walloping 300 pounders mind you but just a small enough bird we
both can lift by hand into the oven.  Generally just the two of us here for the week-end because it's a busy time for Kelly at Deer Park Lodge & this year I will be working the whole week-end as well.

We slipped down to Mitchell this morning to visit my Uncle Harry.  He is doing fine but was getting a little concerned that his hair was getting too long & he didn't want the other residents calling him a long haired hippy.  Kelly took her trusty scissors along & soon the deed was done & Harry was looking like a million bucks again.

A LITTLE OFF THE TOP PLEASE
Until today Kelly hadn't driven the Jeep so decided to drive back from Mitchell.  She did very well & it wasn't really a problem for her.  I told her there would be a noticeable difference when she drove the Santa Fe again.   Compared to the Jeep, the Santa Fe seems sluggish & spongy.  The Jeep just has a way of winning people over with it's quirky little bouncing ways.

THE JEEP WAS NO PROBLEM FOR THIS GAL
GYPSY has herself a bubbling pot of excitement brewing over there in Sacramento, California.  Not only did she finally sell her 5th wheel trailer a few days ago but this morning she kicked her problematic AT&T out the door, signed up with Verizon & set herself up with a complete new Mifi system.  Last I heard she had to get a seat belt installed on her computer chair to keep her safely secured during her new high speed internet surfing.  Seems like Gypsy went from the stone age to the jet age in a matter of hours:))

JUST HAVING A GOOSE OF A DAY
I see we have two new blog supporters.....or do we!!  First let me welcome msucheermom.  Thank you for taking an interest in the Bayfield Bunch & I feel confident you are a true blog follower.  I'm not so sure about our 173rd follower though.  Is this a true supporter??  I am always a little leery when things are not written in English & looking at this person's site I suspect it is a young person.  RVing is generally not of interest to young people.  If you are on the up & up adriane, then I welcome you to the Bayfield Bunch:))

GROANER'S CORNER:(( 
Little Johnny's neighbors had a baby. Unfortunately the baby, was born without ears. When the mother and new baby came home from the hospital, Johnny's family was invited over to see the baby.
Before they left their house, Little Johnny's dad had a talk with him and explained that the baby had no ears. His dad also told him that if he so much as mentioned anything about the baby's missing ears or even said the word "ears" he would get the spanking of his life when they came back home. Little Johnny told his dad he understood completely. When Johnny looked in the crib he said," What a beautiful baby."
The mother said, "Why, thank you, Little Johnny."
Johnny said, "He has beautiful little feet and beautiful little hands, cute little nose and really beautiful eyes. Can he see?"
"Yes, the mother replied, "we are so thankful. The doctor said he will have 20/20 vision "
"That's great," said little Johnny, "cuz he'd be crap-outta-luck if he needed glasses."

  3. Why oh why didn't I switch over to the MiFi a year ago?

    I would hate to admit how long I looked at the punch line of the groaner before I "got it". Good one.

  4. You better watch out Al, I can see you losing your job as Chief Jeep Pilot on the desert! Kelly looks pretty good and capable behind the wheel of that fun-machine!

    Uncle Harry's looking good, but he'd look good as a hippie too!

  5. Kelly looked fine and dandy behind the wheel.

    I have one or two followers that I also find a bit "suspect" but haven't gotten a comment from either one, or spam from them either. I guess we never really know for sure.

  6. I sure can understand the bouncy relating to the jeep, but ain't it great. Better lookout, Kelly may take over your position as the head jeep driver.
    Glad Uncle Harry got a haircut and know he feels more comfortable.

  8. Nothing unhique for us to say, so we'll just echo the comments about Kelly in the Jeep and Uncle Harry. Suzy really likes your titles for photos, aspecially the one about the geese.
