NO BUYERS REMORSE :))

Sometimes it is not unusual for us to come down with a case of buyer's remorse shortly after making either small or large purchases.  Neither one of us experienced that last night and we both slept well waking up with a good feeling about our 2002 Class C Winnebago purchase yesterday.  Anxious to get it home now and add our personal touches to it.  We will take out the dinette for sure and possibly that tub chair replacing them with more comfortable seating which is always a priority for us.  We did that with both our Class A's.
I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THESE SUMACS ALONG THE ROAD AGING SO FAST
HERE'S SOME GREEN APPLES JUST WAITING FOR A COUPLE NAIVE YOUNG BOYS TO COME ALONG AND EAT EM
Not even the hint of a breeze earlier this morning when Pheebs and I slipped into Bayfield and out the other side.  The air was so still not even the wind turbines were moving.  Not hot enough at 8 a.m. for A/C but we did have to have all our windows down.

I was glad I didn't have to make another trip to Goderich and pick up a box of tiny lancets for my diabetes One Touch blood glucose monitoring set-up.  On our way home from the Delhi-Tillsonberg area Thursday we slid north up through Ingersol Ontario stopping at a McDonalds for a coffee to go.  Kelly noticed a Shoppers Drug-Mart nearby and slipped in there to pick up the lancelets I needed.  She always has her thinking cap on.  I think I backed over mine years ago in a snow storm.

Heat and humidity built up fast again this morning so Pheebs and I didn't stay out long.  Home again I mowed some grass in our back yard and transplanted a bunch of Prickly Pear cactus which I have been nurturing along in pots after last winter's cold weather nearly wiped them all out.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THESE TALL PLANTS ARE BUT THEY WERE GROWING ALONGSIDE THE ROAD
I have been lax at answering either blog or Facebook comments these last bunch of years but I pulled out all the stops a few days ago and have made sure to answer every comment I have received so far on my past Tuesday post.  Sorry if I missed anyone but do know I made an enjoyably sincere effort to reach out to everyone.
GROANER'S CORNER:((    A family was visiting an Indian reservation when they happened upon an old tribesman laying face down in the middle of the road with his ear pressed firmly against the blacktop. The father of the family asked the old tribesman what he was doing. The tribesman began to speak..."woman, late thirties, three kids, one barking dog in late model, white, four-door station wagon, traveling at 65 m.p.h. "That's amazing!" exclaimed the father. "You can tell all that just by listening to the ground?" "No," said the old tribesman, weakly. "They just ran over me five minutes ago!"

  1. Glad you're feeling good about the RV. Those tall yellow flowers look like Mullein, big thick fuzzy leaves too.

  5. Al, I think that tall plant is called Mullein it has some medicinal properties for lung disorders...One thing I do on my blog is when people visit and leave a comment I go to their blog and do the same. Tit for tat kinda works out for everyone.

  6. Congratulations on your new class "C"! It looks like it's in great shape, and the pictures look like it just rolled off the assembly line. I think just having it sitting in the yard will make you feel a whole lot better. There will be new things to write about, different things to take pictures of, and a whole lot of future plans to be made.... It looks like the dark days of last winter are over.

  7. Al, those tall plants are called Miner's Candles or mullein It’s on just about every farmer’s list of noxious weeds, an invasive from Eurasia if I remember correctly...
