IT WAS A BOY’S MORNING OUT

THIS  PRETTY FLOWER WAS IN FRONT OF OUR PARK’S MAILROOM

Nice cool partially overcast morning for a couple old guys to take an enjoyable coffee tour Jeep ride through the rolling rural hills of Huron County northeast of Goderich.  With McDonalds coffee and eats securely in hand we wandered up through Amish/Mennonite country waving at folks along the way.

Richard and Gayle will be leaving the Park for the last time about mid September around the same time we will be heading out as well.  In their Georgetown Motorhome they may be heading northeast while Kelly and I in our Triple E Motorhome will be heading north west.  Whether the twain will ever meet again only time will tell.

Kelly spent a big part of her day over at Deer Park Lodge and the beach with her daughter Rebecca and granddaughter Ella.  I spent a good part of my afternoon stretched out in my recliner with no more energy than a fat Gnat.  Too humid outside for me anyway.  A high of 69 predicted for Friday.  Bonus.

Not feeling quite up to par tonight folks so think I’ll cut this post loose and let it land where it may.  Hopefully my aging batteries will recharge overnight…………

GROANER’S CORNER:(( One night, after a long evening of drinking, Jim was thrown out of the bar as usual. On his way home he spotted a nun walking down the road.  After looking at her twice he ran over and tackled her, then proceeded to beat her up pretty good.  Some people passing by spotted this and called the police.  As the police were pulling him away in handcuffs he looked back and said, "I thought you'd be tougher than that, Batman."

  2. All the horses are beautiful - but, I especially like the big Belgian draft horses. Great photos as always. 🐦

  3. Humidity does same number on me...exhaustion. Open the door thinking a nice walk will do wonders, but ten steps into the humidity and glaring sun drives me back inside. Nearly 11 p.m. - still warm and sticky. There’s a good side: four months from now we’ll be dodging cold or snow...and trying not to complain.
    Your time outside is productive, even if brief. More super photos of the beautiful Bayfield region.

  4. It is always nice to get out and about exploring the country side. Never know when you and Richard might run into each other again on down the road. Hook you batteries to the solar panels and maybe you will get a good charge.

  6. Always love new photos of the lovely Ella.

    I am certain that once Richard heads out in his RV that the four of you will meet up somewhere, someday.

    Great shots of those stooks.

  7. Those symptoms can be from hypoglycemia.
