TO DEADEN THE ITCHING IN HER ARMS AND HANDS

Morning sunshine through the Pines.  Need I say more:))  Well yes, I suppose I do.  It's not always easy keeping Mr. Blabberfingers away from his keyboard.  

 A COUPLE PHOTOS ON MY WAY OUT OF OUR PARK THIS MORNING SHOWING ONE OF TWO FLOWER BEDS

Under big blue skies, Pheebs and I headed out straightway to our country road walking spot.  The mid to high 40F temps were quite doable in the warm sunshine.  With no wind to blow the cool temps around, it was a perfectly glorious morning for a walk and we did our half mile with no problems.  But just.

 WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNING AS WE HEAD EAST ON BAYFIELD RIVER ROAD

 SUMAC LEAVES HAVE GONE FROM GREEN TO RED TO ORANGE

Rather than head home after our walk we set off around half a dozen rural roads to enjoy Autumn's beautiful colors snapping a whole host of photos along the way.

 THE BUSH TO THE WEST OF OUR MORNING WALKING ROAD IS NOW SHOWING IT'S AUTUMN COLORS

 ALL THE PHOTOS IN THIS BLOCK OF PICTURES WERE TAKEN ON OUR WALKING ROAD

 BUSH LINE COLORS

These sunny Autumn days are very special to myself and many other folks who live here in this climate zone.  Within weeks, we could well be into the dregs of a cold, grey, and wet early Winter.  Maybe even a load of snow.  So, we all know how truly precious these last beautiful days are.  

 SUNFLOWERS PAST THEIR PRIME DROOP THEIR BLACKENED HEADS

 PHEEBS ALWAYS ENJOYS THE SCENERY JUST AS MUCH AS I DO

 A BABBLING AUTUMN BROOK

 A COUNTRY PROPERTY

 HERE IS PHEEBS AND I DOING WHAT WE LIKE TO DO BEST

At this point, I'd like to express a word of thanks to my readers for all your kind words and compliments on my photos.  Those words inspire me to get myself out of the house every day with my camera to see what photos I can find for my blog each night.  To see what beauty I can show you all from this area where we live in Southwestern Ontario, or Ontario's West Coast as some call it.  Every one of today's photos was taken right from the driver's seat of the Jeep whether through my window, Pheeb's window, or straight out the windshield.  My sideview mirror even came in handy for a few pics this morning as well.  I love being out and about with my camera every day.  Think of me not as a photographer, but just as a guy with a camera who loves taking pictures for people to enjoy.  Nothing more, nothing less.

 A LEAFY LANE

 IF YOU CAN'T FIND A FOREST TO WALK THROUGH THEN FIND A FOREST TO DRIVE THROUGH....SAME THING BUT THE WALKING IS EASIER

Kelly's having a difficult time juggling all the medications she has been given to relieve the itching.  The Pruritus seems to be increasing now and what pill might help her today won't help her tomorrow.  She has tried all the creams and sprays and none of them help anymore.  It's sad to see her struggling as she sits quietly in her chair with frozen water bottles wrapped in towels against her skin to deaden the itching in her arms and hands.    

 SOMETIMES LIFE BEHIND US IS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS LIFE AHEAD OF US MIGHT BE SOMEDAY

 IF YOU ARE TIRED OF ALL THE NOISE IN YOUR LIFE THEN WHY NOT COME OUT FOR A WALK OR A DRIVE THROUGH A QUIET FOREST

Al's Music Box:)) I Walk The Line by Johnny Cash was a 1956 single release.   In a telephone interview, Cash stated, "I wrote the song backstage one night in 1956 in Gladewater Texas. I was newly married at the time, and I suppose I was laying out my pledge of devotion." After writing the song, Cash had a discussion with fellow performer Carl Perkins, who encouraged him to adopt "I Walk the Line" as the song title. Cash originally intended the song to be a slow ballad, but producer Sam Philips preferred a faster arrangement.  In the end, Cash agreed to the change, and the uptempo recording met with success.

 YES INDEED IT WAS A GORGEOUS LATE OCTOBER MORNING

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Joe and Joan were sitting down to their usual morning cup of coffee listening to the weather report on the radio. "There will be 3 to 5 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared," the weather report said.  Joe said, "Jeez, okay," and got up from his coffee.  The next day they were sitting down with their morning cups of coffee. The weather forecast was, "There will be 2 to 4 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared.  You must park your cars on the even-numbered side of the streets." Again Joe replied, "Jeez, okay," and got up from his coffee.  Two days later, again they're sitting down with their cups of coffee and the weather forecast said, "There will be 6 to 8 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared. You must park your cars on the..." and the power went out and Joe didn't get the rest of the instructions.  He turned to Joan, "Jeez, what am I going to do now, Joan?"  Joan replied, "Aw, Joe, just leave the car in the darned garage today."

- A skunk, a deer and a duck went out to dinner and when it came time to pay
the skunk didn't have a scent and the deer didn't have a buck. So they put it on the duck's bill

- I recently paid $1 for a wig.  It was a small price toupee.

- I am looking for someone to brush their teeth with me.  I am really concerned after I found out that 9 out of 10 dentists say brushing alone won't reduce cavities.
