THE BOYS HOLD DOWN THE FRONT PORCH WHILE THE GALS GO SHOPPING

DIDN’T HAVE MUCH IN THE WAY OF PHOTOS TONIGHT SO AM INCLUDING SOME OF OUR HOUSE PICS

Cloudy start to our day but we happily finished in sunshine.  It was a nice day for Kelly & Jean to slip on out for a little shopping excursion to the Congress Depot Mercantile & later on down to a few shops in Wickenburg.  While at the Congress Depot they got to see a baby sheep being born.  Skip & I hung out on our front enjoying the warm afternoon breeze.

LIVING ROOM LOOKING DOWN INTO MY BEDROOM AT THE RED IKEA CHAIR WHERE i WRITE MY BLOG

Finished my book The Few & must say I thoroughly enjoyed this book.  Probably one of the best accounts written about the Battle Of Britain I have ever read.  I’m already well into my next book Down In Flames.

A couple questions about my Thursday post to answer.  No we do not plan to buy another place here in the States when we sell our Congress house.  We feel the time is right for us to re-group our assets back in Canada & we want to do it while we are both still healthy & the economy is still hanging on.  And no we have not listed our house with MLS yet.  We wanted to have a go at selling it ourselves first.  Kelly has listed it on Craigslist, Facebook + 2 on-line buy & sell groups in the Wickenburg & Phoenix areas.  And yes we are receiving inquiries.

BIG JAKE

Kelly whipped up a big mess of spaghetti for supper tonight complete with bowls of ice cream afterwards & like good girls & boys we all ate our supper & cleaned our plates & bowls.  Always nice having Jean, Skip, Jake, Sophie & Louie here.  I love it when all the doggy guys get racing around playing together.  Reminds me so much of how it used to be around our house when we had Max, Checkers, & little Cora (Motormouse)  Ahhhh yes, the original Bayfield Bunch of days gone by:))))

TONIGHT’S MOON

GROANER’S CORNER:(( An Amish boy and his father were visiting a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move apart and back together again. The boy asked his father, "What is this, Father?" The father responded, "Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is."  While the boy and his father were watching wide-eyed an old lady in a wheel chair rolled up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls opened and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched small circles of lights with numbers above the walls light up. Then they continued to watch the circles light up in the reverse direction. The walls opened up again and a beautiful 24 year old woman stepped out.  The father leaned over & quietly said to his son, "Go get your Mother."
