I'M SHRINKING AND HE'S STILL GROWING

 THIS IS A TYPICAL RURAL SETTING IN SOUTHERN ONTARIO

Another fine summer morning for a walk under clear blue sunny skies.  Followed that up with a short relaxing Jeep ride through the peaceful countryside before heading home.

 WHEAT FIELDS ARE BEGINNING TO SHOW THEIR GOLDEN COLOR

 SPOTTED THIS YOUNG FARM FELLA  RACING THROUGH HIS CORN FIELD ON AN ATV

Kind of a low-energy day without a whole lot going on.  A long-time friend of mine from my hometown of Tavistock Ontario dropped in for a visit.  Craig Wilker and I have known each other for many years and in fact, lived on the same street.

 THAT'S CRAIG ON THE RIGHT AND ME ON THE LEFT....CIRCA EARLY 60s....WE ARE BOTH 77 NOW, HAVE BOTH OVERCOME PROSTATE CANCER, BOTH HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH DIABETES,  AND CRAIG IS ABOUT A FOOT TALLER THAN ME....I'M SHRINKING AND HE'S STILL GROWING

Kelly continues to feel better and we have our fingers crossed she will continue to do so. I sure hope she doesn't have to undergo any more blood transfusions.  

 MONDAY EVENING WE TOOK A WALK AROUND THE PARK'S POND

Work continues in our Park and what a change it is now every time we see a machine go by or hear one working somewhere.  Now we know it is for the betterment of the Park and not the detriment of the Park.  We have patiently waited a long time for these better days here at the Five Seasons Estates.

 LUCKILY I WAS GOING SLOW ENOUGH TO STOP FOR THESE LITTLE FELLERS THIS MORNING

Despite the way this YouTube starts out, stay with it to the end because the end is not where you think it is.  Lost Generation...'The link failed.'

GROANER'S CORNER:((  A minister shocked his congregation when he announced that he was resigning and moving to a drier climate. Afterward, a very distraught lady came to the minister with tears in her eyes, "Oh, minister, we are going to miss you so much. We don't want you to leave!" The kind-hearted minister said, "Now, now, sister, don't carry on. The minister who takes my place might be even better than me.""Yeah," she replied, with a tone of disappointment in her voice, "that's what the last minister said, too."

I went to see my doctor this morning. “Someone decided to graffiti my house last night!” I raged.  “So why are you telling me?” the doctor asked.  “I can't understand the writing,” I replied. “Was it you?”
