I GUESS WE COULD CALL THIS OUR ONE DAY JANUARY THAW

AT OUR PARK'S ENTRANCE LOOKING EAST DOWN BAYFIELD RIVER ROAD
No sunshine today so with photos left over from Tuesday, I didn't bother taking any this morning.  It was a dull grey uninspiring day anyway so with that, I will leave you with a few more sunny morning Park pictures from yesterday.

OUR PARK'S POND IS TO THE LEFT
 OUR NEIGHBOR MONICA'S HOUSE CAN BE SEEN TOP RIGHT
 WE EVEN HAVE A FROZEN GHOST IN THE PARK
We did hear this morning that our Park's sale is still on and set to take place at the 'end' of February.  Years ago this one hundred-acre property our Park is located on was farmland.  In fact, a barn silo still stands near the pond.  When the farm was sold, much of the hundred acres was planted with pine trees in a reforestation project.  The property was again sold with the new owner being a Mr. Morgan from Clinton Ontario and he is the one who developed this property into the mobile home Park it is today.  In time, he sold the Park to its present owners, Marie and Ken Hughes.  Fast forward a whole bunch of years to now.....We've heard it is the grandchildren of the Park's original owner, Mr. Morgan who is now supposedly buying the Park.  Morgans Roofing company is well known in the Clinton area.  So, we'll wait and see what happens..........     

 BY GOLLY THERE'S MONICA'S PLACE AGAIN
Our temperature zoomed up to a sweltering 36F today so I guess we will have to consider this one day as our January thaw.  Thursday temps are forecasted to plunge back down to 14F.  I did try starting our little Winnebago this morning and it fired right up with no problem.  Good stuff:))

GROANER'S CORNER:((  Walking through a supermarket, a young man noticed an old lady following him around. He ignored her for a while, but when he got to the checkout line, she got in front of him.  “Pardon me,” she said. “I’m sorry if I’ve been staring, but you look just like my son who died recently.  “I’m sorry for your loss,” the young man replied. “Is there anything I can do for you?”  “Well, as I’m leaving, could you just say ‘Goodbye, mother!?’ It would make me feel so much better.” She gave him a sweet smile.  “Of course I can,” the young man promised.  As she gathered her bags and left, he called out “Goodbye, mother!” just as she had requested, feeling good about her smile.  Stepping up to the counter, he saw that his total was about $100 higher than it should be. “That amount is wrong,” he said. “I only have a few items!”  “Oh, your mother said that you would pay for her,” explained the clerk.

Q: What is the little moron doing when he holds his hands tightly over his ears?
A: Trying to hold onto a thought.

  3. The Halloween ghost is still going strong. When I saw the Christmas decorations on an earlier post, I thought, sure, too cold to get out and take those down. But Halloween? Still, she looks interesting, and maybe even more alarming in the dead of winter. I guess what the art guys called a "memento mori."

    Glad you and Kelly and Pheebs are still here, in spite.
