IT WAS A GEESE & WATER KIND OF A DAY

Needing to exchange 3 pieces of left over room molding for 2 pieces of a different type Pheebs & I were on our way the Rona Store in Goderich by 9 this morning.  With a couple extra dollars in my pocket after the exchange we boogied up the road to McDonalds & grabbed us a muffin & coffee to go.

Heading on down to the harbor I didn’t see any cars parked at the dog walking area so Pheebs & weren’t long in getting our paws on the ground.  Always a nice walk overlooking Lake Huron & this morning was no exception.  The big fresh water lake was calm with its numerous shades & hues of blue and green stretching & blending together far off into the horizon.  Great place for Canada Geese when waters are calm.

A relaxing quiet afternoon.  Painted a couple window frames in the reno room & did some spackling around some trim joints.  Bruce is coming Sunday to finish things & I’m hoping I can get everything cleaned up before Kelly gets home either Sunday or Monday.

LOOK AT THE ‘SMARTY PANTS’ GOOSE OUT THERE MOONING THE CAMERA MAN

GROANER’S CORNER:((  A little boy opened the big old family Bible and with fascination, he looked at the old pages as he turned them. Then something fell out of the Bible and he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that had been pressed in between the pages.  "Momma, look what I found," the boy called out.  "What have you got there?" his mother asked.  With astonishment in the young boy's voice he answered: "It's Adam's suit!"

After she woke up, a woman told her husband,
“I just had a dream that you gave me the most beautiful diamond necklace. What do you think it means?”  “You'll know tonight.” he said with a smile.  The woman could hardly think of anything else all day and she couldn't wait for her husband to return home.  That evening, the man finally came home with a small package and gave it to his wife.  Delighted, she opened it excitedly to find a book entitled…  “The Meaning of Dreams”

  3. Used to love going out in our boat on the lake when it was so calm, head way out off shore and swim in the cold clear water.

  4. Love the picture of the 10 geese in a closeup. Almost like a water ballet - with opps, Josie there you are out of sync with everyone else, get back in line. I thought of that instantly 'cause in my high school days I did water ballet and "Josie" was me. The geese pictures are so calming.

  6. We love to paddle on water like that, Al. It's fun to watch all the little fishies swimming under the kayak!

  7. I think Lake Huron is a beautiful lake, and wish I lived closer to it. I laughed out loud over the 2nd groaner (the necklace).
