I SURE AM NEEDING SOME SUNSHINE

DSC_3256

Despite a very gray, dull, overcast and cold depressing morning Pheebs and I cranked up the Jeep anyway and quickly cracked on some heat.  It's that time of year after all and I suppose we had better get used to it.  Would have been nice to see some sunshine though.  Also very windy this morning.

THIS CORN WILL PROBABLY BE HARVESTED BEFORE THE END OF THE MONTH

Not just feeling the best again so we didn’t go too far.  Wandered around Southeast of Bayfield for a bit thinking how much nicer Autumn’s leaves would look with some sunshine bringing out their colors.  Took a few pics anyway.

Cold rains were upon us by mid morning and we headed for home.  Still having some bouts of dizziness so stuck pretty close to my recliner for the rest of the day.

THIS BEAN FIELD HAS RECENTLY BEEN HARVESTED

Having emptied the Motorhome Thursday we sure have a lot of stuff sitting around which is going to take some major re-organizing if we’re going to get it all put away properly.  First time in over 12 years we haven’t had another RV to transfer much of that stuff into.

GROANER’S CORNER:(( Why did cavemen draw pictures of hippopotamuses and rhinoceroses on their walls?  Because they couldn't spell their names!

What is the noisiest game?  Squash - because you can't play it without raising a racquet!

Where do flies go in winter?  To the glass foundry to be turned into bluebottles!

Why did the king go to the dentist? To get his teeth crowned!"

Tell me" said the tourist to the local yokel. "Will this path take me to the main road?"  "No sir!", replied the man. "You'll have to go by yourself!"

Why are you covered in bruises?  I started to walk through a revolving door and I changed my mind!

How do you prevent a Summer cold?  Catch it in the Winter!

A man goes to the hardware store to buy some insecticide. He holds up a box and asks: "Is this stuff good for beetles?" "No," says the manager, "It'll kill 'em."

A third-grade teacher was instructing her students in some of the wonders of nature and ended by saying, "Isn't it wonderful how baby chickens get out of their shells?" An eight-year-old, showing more curiosity than the rest said, "What gets me is how they got in."

  1. I like sunshine too, but the colors of your fall foliage are brilliant in the overcast. Disappointed to read that we will not have a chance to bump in to each other in Arizona this winter, but I understand. Take care and get well soon! -kevin

  2. Sorry you are feeling poorly. Normally I could offer to send you some sunshine from TX, but we have rain and thunderstorms forecast for the next eight days! And, last I heard, we were 12 inches above normal for rain since Sept. 1. A whole new world when it comes to weather!

  5. Sunshine makes everything better soon it will return, we did manage a few short spurts of sunshine in the afternoon and ran right out to soak it up.

  6. Al, you may want to get X-rays of your upper spine (neck area) to see if you have any compressed vertebrae in the first six or seven joints. I had those dizzy deals too, and X-rays showed compression in three diff ones, and physical therapy prescribed by therapists seem to help.

  7. Love the new header and all your pretty fall colors. We're so happy to have some days of cooler temps but suspect we'll find more heat as we move south :-( Glad you and Pheebs got your morning Jeep fix!

  10. Ahhh...the downside of living on the east side of a Great Lake, Al. After thirty autumns and winters in Grand Rapids, I had my fill.
