IT WOULDN'T START!!

I looked up the meaning of the word 'sweltering' today and it said 'uncomfortably hot'!!  I could easily use that word in a sentence saying, 'These have been sweltering days'. I would say it was the hottest morning of this latest heat wave so far.  Sweltering indeed.

Kelly headed off to Goderich in the Subaru so Pheebs and I headed out in the Jeep.  Not wanting to turn myself into a sticky ball of paste first thing in the morning we didn't stop for a walk anywhere.  Besides that, the rule of thumb now is.....don't turn the Jeep off because it might not start again:(( 

 PHEEBS AND I WERE OUT HORSING AROUND IN THE COUNTRYSIDE AGAIN THIS MORNING

THE EAST END OF A HORSE GOING WEST

I've been puttering a bit on my front yard project but it's usually after supper when the air is cooler.  We have a large Sunburst Locust tree in front of our deck and sunroom that has overgrown itself sending branches over top of our unit.  It is time to have those branches taken down so we have an arborist person coming in the next few days to take care of that problem.

 IT WILL BE GOOD TO GET THESE BRANCHES DOWN BEFORE THEY GET ANY BIGGER

 I REMOVED SOME PATIO STONES FROM THIS FOREGROUND AREA A FEW DAYS AGO

 I HAVE BEEN CLEANING GROUND COVER WEEDS OUT OF THE FLOWERBEDS

Update on the Jeep......Figured I'd move the Jeep out of the carport and let this afternoon's heavy rains wash the dust off it, but.......it wouldn't start!!

ON THESE HOT AND HUMID DAYS PHEEBS LIKES THE COOL CONCRETE FLOOR IN OUR CARPORT

Al's Music Box:))  A triple whammy tonight featuring three of my favorite cowboy trail songs from 'The Sons Of The Pioneers'.  Blue Shadows On The Trail --- Along The Santa Fe Trail --- Along The Navajo Trail ........ A few posts ago I made a little 'ooopsy in Al's Music Box.  I had the wrong link for a Roberta Flack song.  I have since corrected it but if you missed it, here it is.... The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face 

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Driving to work, a gentleman had to swerve to avoid a box that fell out of the truck in front of him. Seconds later, a policeman pulled him over for reckless driving. Fortunately, another office had seen the carton in the road. The policemen stopped traffic and recovered the box. It was found to contain large upholstery tacks.  "I'm sorry, Sir," the first trooper told the driver, "but I am still going to have to write you a ticket."  Amazed, the driver demanded to know the reason.  The trooper replied . . . "Tacks evasion."

- Mom: Do you think we’re made of money?
Daughter: Isn’t that what MOM stands for?

- It was a very moving ceremony.  Even the cake is in tiers.

- So, today, I told my team about the importance of dried grapes.  It’s all about raisin awareness.

- Yeah. I was in a Zoom meeting when I told that joke and they didn’t laugh either.  It turns out I’m not even remotely funny.

- My mum told me that I can’t drive a car made of spaghetti.  You should have seen her face when I drove pasta.

- Why are Catholics so upbeat after church gatherings?  Because they convert Mass into energy.

I wanted to get rid of my old knackered flat screen TV that doesn't work anymore.  The nursing home said they would charge me $30.00 to collect it and dispose of it. Instead, I paid $10.00 and booked an online courier to collect and deliver it to somebody I don't like!
