EIGHT YEARS AGO ON HALLOWEEN NIGHT.....

DSC_0039

FOR TONIGHT'S PHOTOS & IN KEEPING WITH THE HALLOWEEN FEEL, LETS GO UNDERGROUND TO THE....CARLSBAD CAVERNS IN NEW MEXICO (December 21/06)

Halloween night 8 years ago was cold & pouring rain.  I remember that specific night because it was the night we drove out of the old farm house lane near Fullarton Ontario for the very last time.  Kelly had gone on ahead of me in her little 323 Mazda loaded with last minute household things.   I wasn't too far behind her with our 97 Dodge Ram pick-up truck loaded to overflowing with the very last of our possessions.  Just enough room in the cab for Max & I.  It would be another couple of years before we met Checkers & the Motormouse.  So, with windshield wipers slapping time in the darkened night & the truck heater keeping Max & I warm & toasty, we made the 40 minute drive to our new beginnings.  It was the night we moved from the cold & drafty old rented farmhouse we had lived in for 8 years to our newer home here in Bayfield Ontario.   It was Halloween night & despite a nasty 'trick' the weather was playing on us, it was a real 'treat' to be moving into our very own warm & very cozy little place.

It was truly an exciting time for us back in September & October of 2002.  We had signed the papers for our 'new to us' place the weekend after Labor Day & from that week-end on until we moved the last of our stuff Halloween night, it was many trips back & forth ferrying our stuff from point A to point B.  Our move from Fullarton to Bayfield was all made possible by my Uncle Harry.  It was one of the last times I remember being that excited about something except when we later bought our Motor Home of course.

Last year on Halloween night we were in Columbus, New Mexico for an overnighter in a quiet RV Park....we were the only one's there.  A little Mexican boy came to our door dressed up as a........ little Mexican boy.  Had been quite awhile since I heard the word, 'Trick or Treat.'  Three years ago we were recovering at a quiet little RV Park in Ellis Kansas.  We had just tangled with a nasty Kansas cross wind earlier that day & had part of our side awning destroyed.  This is my blog from that stressful day....BIG KANSAS WIND.

I have put together a short photo album of Carlsbad  below........

I am probably going to be using mostly file pics from now until the time we roll out next Saturday.  Our weather is cold, gray & damp.  Not many leaves left on the trees & our countryside has been transformed from beautiful Autumn colors to a drab gray forlorn landscape so not very photogenic.  We did have some hail go through late this morning & some snow showers late this afternoon.

DSC_0044

We are down to the final 5 days before heading out on our southwest journey so this is the week the majority of pencil check marks will be be hitting our 'to do' list.  If our list had 50 things on it, 40 of the 'things to do' would all be last week stuff with the majority of those 40 tasks coming down to the last couple days & final hours & minutes before leaving.  Yes, it's going to be a busy week.........at last:)))))))))

GROANER'S CORNER: And, it is only because it is Halloween that I give you this one..............

A man is walking home  alone late one foggy Halloween night, when behind him he hears: BUMP...BUMP...BUMP...
Walking faster, he looks back and through the fog he makes out the image of an upright casket banging its way down the middle of the street toward him. 
BUMP...BUMP...BUMP...
Terrified, the man begins to run toward his home, the casket bouncing quickly behind him.
FASTER...FASTER..BUMP...BUMP...BUMP.
He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him. However, the casket crashes through his door, with the lid of the casket clapping.  C
lappity-BUMP...Clappity-BUMP....Clappity-BUMP...
Spinning around on his heels the terrified man runs. 
Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, he locks himself in. His heart is pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing gasps.  With a loud CRASH the casket breaks down the door bumping and clapping toward him.  The man screams and reaches for something, anything, but all he can find is a bottle of cough syrup!  Desperate, he throws the cough syrup at the casket...and,
!

The coffin stops........................

JOURNEYING BETWEEN TWO PLANETS

DSC_0058

TONIGHT'S 5 SCENIC'S ARE FROM OUR NOVEMBER 2008 VISIT TO ARCHES NATIONAL PARK IN UTAH....NEAR MOAB

Can't help but notice how much longer it stays dark in the mornings now as our light of day steadily diminishes.  There is a coldness in the air & I see by next week we have a few days coming up  with night time lows below the freezing mark.  Going to have to crack a little heat on in the RV I guess.  Don't need any froze up water lines etc.  It's just the unavoidable hazards of waiting this long to head south!!  Oh well, at least we're not stuck here having to wait until after that Christmas thing like a lot of other folks.

THE GUYS ARE WAITING FOR THEIR PRE-BREAKFAST CEREAL SNACKS THIS MORNING

Handyman Bruce showed up this morning to begin building a little computer station for us in the rig.  Sure will be nice to have some extra space now that the big Tiffin desk is out of there.  Hopes to finish up the project Monday.  In the meantime our rig is sure in a big upside down state of affairs inside so we'll have to do some scrambling next week for sure.

RECOVERABLE PHOTOS 9151MY 'PINK' PERIOD IN THE MID 80'S

Looking for some photos to include in tonight's blog I came across an old picture of myself taken about 1986. (hope I haven't posted this one before)  This was in what I call my 4 year 'pink' era.  The girl I was going with at the time always made me dress up & wear stuff I was never comfortable in.  She had a favorite pink shirt for me so that's why I called it my 'pink' period.  I do not like wearing any kind of jewelry whatsoever so of course she had me walking around with a gold wrist bracelet & neck chain plus a ring.  I was typically a fish out of water for about 4 years.  I much preferred my good old grubby look so needless to say that relationship never did have much of a future.  Notice the pen & notebook in my pocket.  That has been an everyday tradition of mine since 1983 & I still carry a pen & notebook in my shirt pocket to this very day.

PARK AVENUE

Snow Birding is like living on two different planets.  Our sticks & bricks here in Bayfield is like our own Earth & our travels to the great American Southwest are like long journey in space to our other home on the planet Mars. (the southwest)  The two lifestyles have very little in common aside from the eating & sleeping basics.  When on Mars, I seldom think back to our planet Earth here.  Right from the moment we blast off each fall, our sticks & bricks lifestyle immediately fades into a distant memory mode for me & I rarely think of our Earth home' at all for the next 5 months.

DSC_0044

Doesn't quite work the other way around though.  When we are home here in Bayfield for the summer I think often of our other lifestyle in the Southwest.  From the day we arrive back on Earth I am already counting the days to when we will return to our planet Mars with all it's adventures, vistas, unknowns, new horizons, & physically challenging good days.  Where will we go, what new areas of the planet will we see & explore.  What kinds of new characters will we meet & how many new & adventuress things will we learn.  Will we return to Earth with the crew & ship intact yet again.  All unknown factors & all a part of our other great lifestyle. 

DSC_0091

IN THE DEVIL'S GARDEN

The transition between planets is not always easy for Snow Birds like us.  Within minutes of leaving home we begin the transition from our oh so familiar routines & surroundings to our life on the road.  My big comfy recliner, wide screen HD television, & favorite cabled in ambient stereo surround sound music is suddenly gone.  Long hot morning showers, my own big double comfy bed in my very own room, big monitor computer screen in a beautifully scenic sunroom is all left behind in a matter of minutes.  What must we be thinking!!!!  Our other totally different lifestyle, that's what............on our other Planet which sometimes seems so long ago in a Galaxy so far, far, away:))

GROANER'S CORNER:((  Lynn & Judy (two local blonde gals) were doing some carpenter work on a Habitat for Humanity House.  Lynn was nailing down house siding, would reach into her nail , pouch, pull out a nail & either toss it over her shoulder or nail it in. Judy, figuring this was worth looking into, asked, 'Why are you Throwing those nails away?' Lynn explained, 'When I pull a nail out of my pouch, about half of them have the head on the wrong end & I throw them away.'  Judy got completely upset & yelled,  'You moron! Those nails aren't Defective! They're for the other side of the house!'

HAD ME A BAD, GOOD, BAD, BAD, BAD, GOOD, BAD, GOOD, KIND OF A JEEP KEY DAY!!

DSC_0011-7

STORMY WATERS BREAK OVER BAYFIELD'S NORTH PIER

As the mornings turn gradually colder our walks become progressively shorter.  I'm not a cold weather guy although I did enjoy cross country skiing years ago & one season of downhill skiing.  When it's cold outside I much prefer to be inside.

DSC_8898

I may have been a little hasty in throwing the 'greed' word around in last night's blog  because this morning I learned a little bit about the newer technology of....automobile keys!!  I had myself a real session of bad news, good news, bad news, bad news, bad news, good news, bad news & finally some good news.

DSC_8914

First bit of bad news this morning.....missing key still not found:((  First bit of good news....local hardware store was able to make a key that opened the Jeep door & started the Jeep.  I was so happy about that I had the hardware store lady make two more keys.  Figured I had better make sure the new keys worked so tried them out.

DSC_8874

Bad news....the Jeeps engine stalled about 5 seconds after starting with the two new keys.  Oh no!!  Do I have an engine problem now!!!!Good news.....Jeep started fine with original key so that turned a little light on in my head.  The original key must have a micro chip transponder in it knocking the engine out of actions as an anti theft function.  Bad news.....this is gonna get expensive:((  I headed off for the town of Exeter about 35 minutes away in hopes a locksmith there might have some good news for me.  Bad news........the locksmith did not have good news for me!!  Good news......there is a Chrysler Dealership in Exeter & when I went in they said yes, they can build me a new key & reprogram the Jeep.  Bad news......a new key was going to cost me $94.52:((

DSC_8935

Despite the high cost of the key (no way around that) I was very impressed with EXETER CHRYSLER JEEP. The fellow at the counter took my Jeep key & immediately set the wheels in motion for getting me a new one.  He needed photo ID & the Jeep ownership.  One fellow fed all the necessary info into a computer while another chap got to work on the physical make up of the key.  Twenty minutes later they pulled the Jeep into the shop & reprogrammed the onboard computer & 10 minutes after that I was on the road with my new Jeep key.  My total time in & out of that dealership was well less than an hour & I was impressed at how they took me in right away without having to make an appointment.  Two thumbs up for Exeter Chrysler Jeep:))

DSC_8429

I HAVE TAKEN A REAL LIKING THESE PAST MONTHS TO MIXING HALF A GLASS OF VANILLA FLAVORED SOY MILK WITH HALF A GLASS OF VARIOUS FLAVORED FRUIT DRINKS. (smooooth)

Now, a word of warning!!  Little did I know this morning that had I tried either one of those two new hardware store keys in the Jeep's ignition one more time the Jeep's computer system would automatically have gone into a maximum security lock down mode totally immobilizing that Jeep & nothing would have worked!!.  Nothing!!  The Jeep would have had to be towed to a Chrysler Jeep dealership & it's computer reprogrammed before it would ever start again.  It's all sophisticated anti-theft stuff these days so my little 'greed' rant last night was a tad off base.  Oh, and before I forget, the final piece of good news is..............I am now finally done with this good news bad news routine:))

 DSC_8984            DSC_8987

I LIKE BIG SCREEN MONITORS & BIG NUMBERS ON TELEPHONES:))

Came across a new RV blogger this afternoon who, after thinking about it for 2 years, has finally put together her very first post.  I wonder how many of us can remember back to the apprehension & excitement we felt over our first post.  Might be kind of nice to drop by with a word of encouragement for Kathy & welcome this gal to our little world of folksy family RV bloggers.  DON'T FENCE ME IN

REMEMBER THURSDAY NIGHT'S BLOG ABOUT THE CIRCLING FOOD SHARKS!!

GROANER'S CORNER:((  A 54 year old woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital.

While on the operating table she had a near death experience.. Seeing God she asked "Is my time up?"

God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and 8 days to live."

Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, liposuction, breast implants and a tummy tuck.

She even had someone come in and change her hair color and brighten her teeth! Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.

After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was killed by an ambulance.

Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 43 years? Why didn't you pull me from out of the path of the ambulance?"

God replied: " I didn't recognize you."

I THINK THESE FELLOWS BETTER GET OUT THEIR WIRE BRUSHES & GET TO WORK ON ALL THAT RUST

Every morning Kelly & I have to put our referee hats on when it's time to feed the gang.  3 separate food dishes have to placed well apart.  Max & Checkers wolf their food down in about 20 seconds flat but our little Motormouse is a slow eater & likes to take her time.  As soon as the big guys slurp down their yummy breakfast they immediately surround the Motor & wait with intense stares focused on her food dish.  Needless to say this a quite intimidating to the little Mouse & her wee worried face sure shows it sometimes.  This is where the referring comes in to save the day.  One of us has to physically stand guard over the little Monkey Face & her dish, especially if the little Sweet-ums goes for a drink of water & a gargle.  If we didn't do that, the 2 big circling food sharks would gobble up her remaining breakfast in a second!!  Same  thing again at night.  The 3 of them are the best of Pals & get along great.....except when there is food involved.  I will try to get a picture of that daily morning stand-off shortly.

MAX, SNOOZING ON THE COUCH

Checkers & the Motor got into a really nasty scrap 2 years ago in Borrego Springs when a piece of chicken was accidentally dropped on the rig's kitchen floor.  Blood was drawn on both sides & we had two very upset doggies with bruised feelings for about an hour afterwards.  I felt like an NHL referee having to quickly step in & break up the brawl that time.

SOME PORT ALBERT ONTARIO FISHERMAN

Kelly headed east early this morning to visit one of her daughters & grandchildren in Cambridge,   I headed north to pick up a mobility van in the town of Goderich.  Had a couple people to move around in two different towns today & I was back in Goderich around 4 in the afternoon.   And, that's when I got really upset with myself.  I had lost my Jeep key!!!!  I knew for sure I had put it in my coat pocket when I locked the Jeep earlier in the day & picked up the van.  Somewhere during the day as I was in & out of the van 2 dozen times, that Jeep key somehow got out of my pocket.  I knew Kelly had a spare key so I got on the phone to see if she was home from Cambridge yet.  Nope not yet but she was on her way & about an hour's drive from where I was.  So, nothing to do but bluster & fume at myself for carelessly losing the key until she arrived with the spare one.

IMG_2591

I HEADED FOR GODERICH TO PICK UP MY MOBILITY VAN THIS MORNING (notice our leafless & barren trees now)

Normally whenever I get a different vehicle I always get spare keys made but when I went to get that done a few months ago at 'Canadian Tire' they told me I would have to go through Chrysler.  I can't even begin to tell you how mad I am about that right now because I know what a total financial rip off it is going to be to get a new key.  Just another greed driven profit line for another greed driven car company I suspect!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Ok, that's enough of that or I'm going to pop a gasket.  We'll find out more details tomorrow on getting a replacement key.

WAITING FOR KELLY TO BRING ME THE SPARE JEEP KEY

Wandering Willy took a nasty little tumble Wednesday in Canyon De Chelly (pronounced De Shay) down in Arizona resulting in an injury to his jaw.  He managed to pick himself up, dust himself off & in a bit of Geezer confusion was redirected on his wayward journey by what Willy called, 'a toothless old native.'  That re-direct led Willy along a Canyon path to where he met what he called, 'a nice young Navajo Lady who had a..........'  But hey, I'm giving his story away so why don't you go to WW's site at WANDERING WILLY'S TRAVELS & read it for yourself.  And check out the photo of him at the end of the day after he lost his........... Well, you'll see!!  He might need a little cheering up:))

SOME LAKE HURON FISHERMEN HAVE MORE COMFORTS THAN OTHERS

I got a chuckle out of the photo below that I took this morning in a hospital parking lot.

IMG_2594

These two Mennonite fellows got out of a pick-up truck with a non Mennonite driver.  They stood & talked to each other for a minute both holding their Tim Horton's coffee, then began walking across the hospital parking lot.  They soon stopped as I saw one fellow hand something to the other fellow.  I noticed they assumed an old familiar huddle type position with their hands up around their faces.  Seconds later I saw the puffs of smoke around their heads.  These guys had lit up a couple cigarettes.  They walked a little further & were obscured by some cars, but a minute later I saw them walking back with what appeared to be their wives in tow.  That's when I took the picture because I was looking hard to see if the guys still had their cigarettes going or had hastily ditched them when the women folk came out of the hospital's front door.  I have enlarged the pics trying to see if the boys still had their smokes & just by the way their fingers are being held I think they are still clutching their smokes.  Looks like the one lady might be a tad disappointed by that.  Just thought it was kind of humorous seeing the Mennonite fellas having a smoke with their Snortin Horton morning coffee:))

NEARING SUNDOWN ON LAKE HURON NEAR KINCARDINE ONTARIO LAST SUNDAY

GROANER'S CORNER:((  And a few thoughts by Will Rogers on growing old..............

First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me; I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.

Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.

Eighth ~  One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.

Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

Tenth ~ Long ago, when men beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.

And, finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.

BIG GUSTING WINDS MESS UP MY VARATHANE PROJECT!!

DSC_8927

Our early morning gentle breeze blew itself up into 50 & 60 mph wind gusts by early afternoon & our tall pine trees were whipping around like blades of grass.  That is always a concern when you live in a pine forest.  Pines are not strong trees so we have to keep an eye out on windy days. 

DSC_8886

I had no sooner put a second coat of Varathane on my oak board earlier today when a big wind gust blew up a batch of driveway dust & dirt peppering it right into my freshly Varathane coated board.  Our new computer shelf will now have a slightly textured look!!

DSC_8889

KELLY'S LOADING UP THE RIGDSC_8888

Yesterday & this morning again Kelly was on the phone with the HWH leveler folks over in Moscow, Iowa.  They suggested we take the floor plate off where the joy stick controls are located & check out a few things.  Kelly got the plate off but we were unsuccessful in determining anything.  Double checked the fuse again & it looks fine....just no power to the box!!  Ron, from FOUR SEASONS PERFORMANCE won’t be home until Thursday so we’ll see if he has any suggestions for us.  Ever since we've had that coach I have noticed what I consider to be design flaw.  The emergency brake release handle is way too close to the emergency brake pedal & when you lift your foot to press down on the emergency brake your boot catches the brake release handle & bends it right down because you think your foot is on the brake pedal.  I have probably made that mistake half a dozen times so far & maybe something has gone amiss there.  The emergency brake has to be on to operate the levelers.  Anyway, we’ll wait to see if Ron has any suggestions for us.

DSC_8920

The rest of the day was spent transplanting some Hostas, raking leaves & just general puttering with things in & around the rig.  We are going through our check lists now but it will be next week before we really get active checking things off.  Somebody wondered when we will be rolling out & it will be a week from Saturday on November 6th. (weather permitting)  We like to leave on a Saturday because that gets us north of Indianapolis for an overnight stay at a Wal-Mart near Angola.   By doing this we can get the only large city of our trip behind us first thing on a quiet Sunday morning. 

 DSC_8863

Because I am generally a blogger who wears his thoughts & feelings on his sleeve, those same thoughts often end up right here in my posts.  Sometimes it’s humor, sometimes an opinion or two, sometimes a bit of anger, a bit of sadness, a bit of melancholy & sometimes a bit of silly frivolity.  Yesterday was one of those gloomy days so I went along with the mood of the day & expressed my feelings about some traveling concerns, likes, dislikes, what if’s & some why not’s.  Just some honest off the cuff feelings, but of course that was seen by one reader as, ‘feeling sorry for myself.’   Some days, no matter what a person writes about, their efforts are just going to be misinterpreted by someone & that’s just the way it is.  And, if you blog a little closer to the edge of things like I & a few others sometimes do, misunderstandings, accusations & criticisms are going to happen.   Sometimes we just have to step back & think things through either before publishing a post or comment or after reading a post or comment.  Sometimes thoughts are understood & sometimes they are not.  I have been at both ends of this 'thoughts' process & none of us are immune from the mistakes factor.  

DSC_8944

AFTER THE RAIN

Thursday will be a working day for me & I am looking forward to that.  Nice to have somewhere to go, something to do & a nice rural environment to do it all in.   Hopefully I can make enough money tomorrow to buy myself an extra jar of peanut butter to take south with us.  Hard to find good natural peanut butter when we are traveling.  I can eat the more commercial stuff with all the fillers in it if I have to but I much prefer, ‘real peanut butter.’

DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS BUT IT'S IN OUR FLOWERBED

A fellow RV friend we know wrote a fine tribute to the their beloved dog Molly who passed away a few days ago.  We first met fellow Canadians, Mike, Maureen & Molly (MnMnM) in Cannonville Utah back in November of 2008 & we remember Molly well.  A TRIBUTE TO MOLLY

GROANER’S CORNER:((   A man is stopped by the police at midnight and asked where he’s going.  “I’m on the way to listen to a lecture about the effects of alcohol and drug abuse on the human body.”  The policeman asks, “Really? And who’s going to give a lecture at this time of night?”  “My wife”, comes the reply.
