AND THERE WENT ANOTHER DAY BANG ZOOM

Pheebs and I slipped up to Goderich and back under cool cloudy skies this morning.  It was our routine route with all the usual stops.  

 TREES ARE BEGINNING TO TAKE ON A BARE LOOK

Spent an hour outside this afternoon raking up more pine needles and leaves.  Also drained our outside hoses.  And there went another day bang zoom.

Al's Music Box:)) Memories by Barbra Streisand.  Streisand recorded this song on September 12, 1973, with Marty Paich doing the arrangements. The song was released as a single later in the month, and the movie came out on October 19, 1973. The film was very successful and helped popularize the song, which entered the Top 40 on December 22, 1973 and became Streisand's first #1 hit on Groundhog Day, 1974.

--------------------------------

A priest was sent to a very small church in the backwoods of Alaska. After a couple of years the Bishop decided to pay the priest a visit to see how he was doing. The priest said that it was a really lonely job and that he didn't think that he could have made it without his Rosary and two martinis each day. With that the priest said to the Bishop, "Would you like to have a martini with me?" The Bishop said, "Yes, that would be nice." The priest turned around and hollered toward the kitchen, "Rosary, would you fix us two martinis please?"
