I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO 'A CELEBRATION OF LIFE' BEFORE

I have published this post early today because I plan to attend a 'Celebration Of Life' for my recently departed friend, John Eifert.  It is from six to eight this evening in Stratford, Ontario and it's an hour's drive there and back.  I have never been to a 'Celebration Of Life' before so I have no idea what to expect.  I will probably have some thoughts about it tomorrow.

Another cold cloudy day has left me in another lacklustre mood. This has been going on for a few days now.  I guess I, like others, am patiently waiting for warm air and sunshine.  And, by warm air, I mean 60F plus and not a degree below that!!  Oh how I would like to live someplace with lots of sunshine where temperatures never went below 60F or above 80F and 'No Humidity'.

Al's Music Box:)) Ninety Miles An Hour Down A Dead End Street is a country music song written by Don Robertson and Hal Blair.  It was recorded by Hank Snow. In October 1963, it reached No. 2 on the country charts. 

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A guy walks into a lumberyard & asks for some 2x4s. The clerk asks, "How long do you need them?" The guy answers, "A long time. We're gonna build a house."

  1. A celebration of life is somewhat like a funeral except that friends and family remember and talk about all the good things that happened in the deceased's life, instead of dwelling on the sadness of the person's passing.

  2. I think most of the places meeting your requirements for weather have already been taken. For me, I'm willing to extend the lower limit to 50. (Probably that is because I live somewhere that gets a lot hotter than Ontario.)

    1. Al, the truth...chances are that the place you'd like to live on is inexistent, sorry ! 😩 😰

  3. The SoCal mountains would not meet your requirements for the weather. We are down to 27 tonight with snow tonight and tomorrow. Will Spring ever really arrive? I too, just want to feel warm when I am outside.
