J.K. ROWLING.....YOUR WORDS MADE MY DAY:))

EACH ONE OF THESE BREAKWATER BOULDERS WAS BROUGHT HERE ON A FLATBED TRUCK

It has been one of those days that has left me at the end of it with not much to write about.  Some puttering in the Motor Home this morning followed by a short 2 hour drive with Town & Country's mini-van.  I'll be working both Saturday & Sunday as well.  We have had some pretty hefty RV related bills these past couple weeks with more to come so every little bit helps.  Sounds like I will be very busy Thanksgiving week-end as well with a lot of other drivers wanting the week-end off.

WE'RE SLOWLY GETTING THE RIG ORGANIZED

Sounds like RETIRED ROD has come through his surgery just fine according to this message left on his site......... "This is Melissa, Rod's daughter in law. Just thought I would post an update here that Rod's surgery went well. He is out of recovery and in his room now - hopefully resting. I know he and Loyce really appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers."

A FEW PHOTOS AROUND THE GODERICH HARBOR  

Well, I've written 2 paragraphs in 2 hours so I guess that tells me something.  I'm not a big fan of the Oprah Winfrey show but Kelly had taped Oprah's interview with author J.K. Rowling who wrote the Harry Potter series of books.  I got caught up watching the interview tonight & was impressed with J.K. Rowling's honesty in describing the difficult times in her life.  She alluded to the fact that many people talk only about positive & successful things & too few people talk about the failures, the down times, the difficulties.  She talked about her moods & depressions.  And she talked about her determination.  A truly remarkable, very real & down to earth person.  At the end of the interview, under my breath, I said a silent 'thank you' to J.K. Rowling.  Your words made my day.

GROANER'S CORNER:((  I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age, and call it 'Pumping Rust'.

You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that people didn't like me anyway.

I've gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That's when your chest is falling into your drawers!
