I DON'T KNOW WHERE MY ABSENT MIND GOES BUT I HOPE IT ENJOYS ITSELF WHEN IT GETS THERE

Well, here we are back to our normal daily routine again, so not breaking with that routine Pheebs and I were again into the Jeep heading to Goderich's TSC to buy some birdseed.  Birdseed was at the top of my list along with half a dozen other things below.  And it was birdseed I didn't have when we later arrived home.  I don't know where my forgetful mind goes but I certainly hope it enjoys itself wherever it is because it sure can't be enjoying itself hanging around in my absent-minded head half the time.

I have a feeling some readers may have become confused with my recent travel posts when I fell behind because of some blogging problems I encountered.  The following are my two posts for Thursday and Friday.  This is my Friday post...Wiarton To Wiarton With A Bunch Of Stops In Between and this is my Saturday post...Wiarton To Mill Bank (Anna Mae's) And Home.  Hope this clears up some of the confusion.  Now to the blogging problem I had.  Thinking it was a laptop computer/Picasa problem I found out after getting home that was not the case because my laptop and Picasa photo program worked fine together here at home.  It had to be our slower wifi connections along the way and while in Wiarton it would take me nearly 5 minutes to download one picture.  Couple that with Blogger's ongoing daily glitches and it turned out too much for me and I steadily dropped behind.

THERE'S THOSE GOLDENROD HORSES AGAIN
AFTER HARVESTING HIS SOYBEAN FIELD THIS FARMER PREPS THE FIELD FOR ITS NEXT CROP
Our wonderful Fall weather slowly deteriorated throughout the day and around four this afternoon rains came bringing with them cooler weather.  Cooler weather I don't mind, it's the coming colder weather I am not looking forward to.  Pheebs and I luckily managed to get an afternoon walk in before the rains.  At posting time tonight, it is still raining

KELLY'S BEEN BUSY SETTING OUT SOME PUMPKINS
It was sure nice to get away from the political news south of the border for a few days and I certainly didn't miss it.  I never listen to news on the radio or TV while traveling and I don't trust the majority of whack-job sites on the internet to tell me the truth about anything.  However, only home a day I was like a moth drawn to a flame and was soon tuning into my favorite trusted TV news channels to get myself caught up on the reality of what I had missed.  I think we really need to do more traveling to very faraway places and be away from all this mind knumbing stuff!!

A BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE BLOWS BY MY CAMERA LENS
GROANER'S CORNER:(( Janna: My husband is a great handyman. He can repair almost anything.  Ellie: My mother always taught me to beware of the man that can fix everything. You'll never get anything new.

  2. I've been allowing myself only 30 minutes of reading the news. And I find I am no worse for it. Nothing I can do about anything but vote. (I'm in the US.) Other things I can do, such as checking your blog, are much more rewarding. Even with the chickadee!

  3. Love Kelly's pumpkins scatter here and there in your lovely yard. Fall is a favorite time of year for me and I too, have pumpkins here and there.
