GODERICH HARBOR MAY 2009 (all but one of today's photos are file pics from May 09)
The absolute most exciting thing that happened in my life today was that I snuck into town to buy a jar of peanut butter. Now, it hardly gets any more exciting than that I'd say!!
BRUCE & MARGIE aren't having themselves quite as an exciting day because they are currently held up in Owensville near St. Louis somewhere with a hydraulic jack on their Motor Home stuck in the down position. Reminds me of November of 2008 when we were in Oliver Lee State Park near Alamogordo New Mexico with a similar jack problem. I have a few photos of that situation on OUR BLOG for that day.
OLIVER LEE STATE PARK NEAR ALAMOGORDO, NEW MEXICO...2008
RAY from beautiful downtown Gleeson in southeast Arizona is having a tongue twisting Pyrrhuloxia problem that is only solvable by applying an easy repeatable tongue pacifying Kazoot-kazoot solution. And, the CAVE PEOPLE living in a town called Sandwich, Illinois actually chose RVing over embroidering back in 2008. Imagine that!!
AND THEY CALL IT ART!!
Once again JUDY was able to identify my very poor mystery bird photo last night as that of a Green Heron. Am suspecting we may have had an Oriole at the feeder today so I have the camera beside the computer as I keep a close eye on the daily outside Birdville shenanigans......
ONE OF THE LOCAL FARM BOYS SPREADING A LITTLE AGRICULTURAL HAPPINESS ON THE FIELDS
GROANER'S CORNER:(( The Laws Of Golfing:
LAW 1: No matter how bad your last shot was, the worst is yet to come. This law does not expire on the 18th hole, since it has the supernatural tendency to extend over the course of a tournament, a summer and, eventually, a lifetime.
LAW 2: Your best round of golf will be followed almost immediately by your worst round ever. The probability of the latter increases with the number of people you tell about the former.
LAW 3: Brand new golf balls are water-magnetic. Though this cannot be proven in the lab, it is a known fact that the more expensive the golf ball, the greater its attraction to water.
LAW 4: Golf balls never bounce off of trees back into play. If one does, the tree is breaking a law of the universe and should be cut down.
LAW 5: No matter what causes a golfer to muff a shot, all his playing partners must solemnly chant "You looked up," or invoke the wrath of the universe.
LAW 6: The higher a golfer's handicap, the more qualified he deems himself as an instructor.
LAW 7: Every par-three hole in the world has a secret desire to humiliate golfers. The shorter the hole, the greater its desire.
LAW 8: Topping a 3-iron is the most painful torture known to man.
LAW 9: Palm trees eat golf balls.
LAW 10: Sand is alive. If it isn't, how do you explain the way it works against you?
LAW 11: Golf carts always run out of juice at the farthest point from the clubhouse.
LAW 12: A golfer hitting into your group will always be bigger than anyone in your group. Likewise, a group you accidentally hit into will consist of a football player, a professional wrestler, a convicted murderer and an IRS agent -- or some similar combination.
LAW 13: All 3-woods are demon-possessed.
LAW 14: Golf balls from the same "sleeve" tend to follow one another, particularly out of bounds or into the water (see Law three)
LAW 15: A severe slice is a thing of awesome power and beauty.
LAW 16: "Nice lag" can usually be translated to "lousy putt." Similarly, "tough break" can usually be translated "way to miss an easy one, sucker."
LAW 17: The person you would most hate to lose to will always be the one who beats you.
LAW 18: The last three holes of a round will automatically adjust your score to what it really should be.
LAW 19: Golf should be given up at least twice per month.
LAW 20: All vows taken on a golf course shall be valid only until the sunset of the same day.

The only thing better than right now will someday be the memories of right now...... AL.
Your photo there at the Oliver Lee S.P. is really a beauty. Nice train photos, too.
ReplyDeleteWe got ourselves repaired and on the road by only 3:30 this afternoon. Thanks for the mention. Enjoy the remainder of your weekend, Bayfield Bunch!
Now a jar of peanut butter can make for a great day!!!
ReplyDeleteNice photos of Oliver Lee SP!! Thanks for sharing with us.
Mike & Gerri
I'm betting you went into town for Peanut Butter so you could rush home and make one of Jerry's "Peanut Butter and Onion" sandwiches! Now, that would have been way more exciting! All kinds of possibilities to blog about too - nausea, dizziness, upset stomach and gross pictures of the actual gross sandwich! Maybe next time, ok!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds to me like you're missing the excitement of the Old Wild West!
ReplyDeleteI resent the implication Rick left you! A peanut butter and onion sandwich is a gourmet treat, a delicacy, a piece of culinary art. And besides that, they taste good. Cruncy peanut butter is best, but don't foget the mayo and a little salt on the onion! That's a lot better than Rick's famous "ham and salmon sandwich!"
ReplyDeleteYUM Peanut butter... BUT with onions I don't think so! I haven't deserted you Al just having so much trouble with AT&T internet service here in the Northwest. Have agreat day and enjoy peanut butter.
