DSC_4247

Really not much going on today so I think I will just leave you with a few more photos from our Wednesday country drive.  Richard picked me up this morning about 8:30 for our semi-monthly country coffee tour and that of course turned out to be the highlight of my day.

GROANER'S CORNER:((  I am not a believer in seances, but I went to one just to see what they are like. The psychic was doing his thing and grinning from ear to ear. I assumed his merriment was due to the fact that he was fooling a gullible public so gave him a poke in the nose. You can probably guess the rest. I was arrested for striking a happy medium.

"I'd like to order a pizza" the guy says.  “Shall I ask them to cut it into six or twelve slices,” the pizza maker asks. “Six please,  I could never eat twelve pieces."

When the wise company president learned that his employees were drinking no-trace vodka martinis during their lunch hours, he issued the following memo:   To all employees; If you must drink during your lunch hours, please drink whiskey. It is better for our customers to know you're drunk than to think you're stupid.

Knock Knock
Who's there?
Porpoise!
Porpoise who?
For all intents and porpoises the case is closed.

  5. You are close, Al. It's a 1952 Chevy Styleline DeLuxe. That was the last year for that nameplate. Love the split windshield!
