KELLY MADE IT HOME SAFE AND SOUND:)))))

 HAPPY TO BE HOME
I think it was somewhere around noon when the phone rang.  It was Kelly, she was across the border, back into Canada, and stopped at a Tim Hortons for coffee in Brantford, Ontario.  She said there was no problem crossing the border and she had been the only one there.  They gave her two covid testing kits to bring home with her.  She sent a text when she reached Woodstock 45 minutes later saying she was tired but well on her way.  It was with great anticipation about an hour later when I began watching out the window for the white car to appear.  And then, at 2:25p.m. there was the white Pontiac Sunbird rolling into our driveway.  Kelly was home at last.  I waited until she was stopped then shouted excitedly to Pheebs, "Mom's Home".   And the scramble was on as we headed out the door:))

 YAAAAAAY MOM'S HOME
 AND PHEEBS GETS A NEW SQUEAKY CHICKEN
 ANY SNACKS IN THAT BAG FOR ME MOM??
Rain in the night but we woke up to a nice sunny morning.  The air was cool but with no wind, it was a comfortable morning walk for both Pheebs and I.

SUNDAY MORNINGS SETTING MOON
 AFTER RAIN IN THE NIGHT IT WAS NICE TO SEE A BLAST OF MORNING SUNSHINE AHEAD AS PHEEBS AND I ROLLED OUT OF THE PARK
 HEADING EAST TO OUR WALKING SPOT JUST A FEW MILES DOWN THIS ROAD
 WE'VE GOT PAWS AND BOOTS ON THE GROUND
 ON OUR WAY TO GODERICH
Following our walk, we were off to Goderich to pick up a few groceraries, grab a coffee at McDonalds, swing ourselves down around the harbor, and head for home.  A few last things to straighten up before Kelly gets home.  Some might think the only thing needing straightening up would be me.  

 A SWING DOWN AROUND THE HARBOR AND THEN WE HEADED HOME
After 78 days away it sure is nice having Kelly home.  The Bayfield Bunch is back together again.  Kelly's sister Becky flew up from Florida a week or so ago and has taken over looking after their mother now for a while so that is a big help.  Kelly sure is happy to be home and we are sure happy to have her home:)))))
GROANER'S CORNER:((   
One night, a man on his way home happened upon a drunk, down on his hands and knees searching for something under a street light. The man asked the drunk what he was looking for so diligently and the drunk said he had tripped and his Rolex wristwatch had broken loose from his wrist. The man, being a kindhearted soul, got down on his hands and knees and began assisting the drunk looking for his watch. After about ten minutes without any success, the man asked the drunk exactly where he tripped. "About a half a block up the street," the drunk said. "Why, pray tell," the man asked the drunk, "are you looking for your watch here if you lost it a half a block up the street?" The drunk replied, "The light is a lot better here."

Little Johnny wasn't very good at spelling. During an oral spelling exam, the teacher wrote the word "new" on the blackboard.  "Now," she asked Johnny, "what word would we have if we placed a "K" in the front?"  After a moment's reflection, Johnny said, "Canoe?"

  8. I can't imagine 78 days away from Ruth. I think in 38 years the most time we've had apart was three weeks. And that was probably 30 years ago!

    Glad you're all back together.
