NO SICKNESS OR HEADACHES BUT KELLY IS EXTREMELY TIRED

 A MORNING'S CEMETERY WALK

Thunder boomers came rolling through our neighborhood in the night and this morning leaving water puddles in our driveway and dripping tree branches.  By 10 o'clock the rain had stopped and skies began clearing as Pheebs and I took a drive into and around Bayfield.  Feeling like a walk, we had three options.  Head to the Bayfield Cemetery and walk the roads, or the large grass field beside it, or the forest beside the grass field.  Well, knowing both the grass field and forest would still be wet, we opted for the roads.  However, it turned out to be a short walk because cars were coming in for a morning burial service and I didn't want Pheebs running up to people with her wagging tail and her 'hey, how's it going eh' happy look on her face.  

 NOT ALL BOATS MADE IT INTO THE WATER THIS SUMMER

 SOME BOATERS MAY TRAVEL WITH HANDY BICYCLES

 ALWAYS NICE TO SEE BOATS WITH SOME COLOR TO THEM

Home again and with the humidity ramping up after the rain I hooked up the utility trailer to the Jeep and took a large accumulated load of yard waste to our Park's recycle area.  With that task out of the way, I quickly headed inside to bask in the coolness of our A/C and my big pedestal fan.  Wished we could fast forward to the middle of September and then slowly meander our way to mid-October and then fast forward again to the beginning of next May.  I sure do got a big wish and some fast forwards in there eh:))        

 WATER PUDDLES IN THE CEMETERY

Our new weather forecasting machine this afternoon said it was raining when it wasn't so I took it outside, pointed it to the sky, and told it to 'smarten up'!!  It quickly fixed itself with a little beep that sounded like 'sorry' and correctly showed a sunny sky.  I like it when things get smartened up.  I'm going to go into the washroom now, look in the mirror, and utter those two words to the image I see there.  Why am I not convinced it will work?? 

Kelly's doing sort of okay since arriving home a couple days ago.  No sickness or headaches, but she is extremely tired and is frustrated because she can hardly do anything without having to sit down and rest.  It probably has something to do with all the blood she lost last week.  Pheebs and I aren't venturing any further than a few minutes from home for a while just in case we have to make another fast trip to either the Goderich or London hospitals again.  

 'HEY, HOW'S IT GOING EH'

Al's Music Box:)) All Along The Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix.  This is a song by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan from his eighth studio album, John Wesley Harding (1967). The song was written by Dylan and produced by Bob Johnston. The song's lyrics, which in its original version contain twelve lines, feature a conversation between a joker and a thief. The song has been subject to various interpretations; some reviewers have noted that it echoes lines in the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 21, verses 5–9. Dylan has released several different live performances, and versions of the song are included on some of his subsequent greatest hits compilations.  Covered by numerous artists, "All Along the Watchtower" is strongly identified with the interpretation Jimi Hendrix recorded with the Experience for their third studio album, Electric Ladyland (1968). The Hendrix version, released six months after Dylan's original recording, became a Top 20 single in 1968, received a Grammy Hall of Fame award in 2001, and was ranked 48th in Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time in 2004 (40th in the 2021 version). Dylan first played the song live in concert on the 'Bob Dylan and the Band' 1974 Tour, his first tour since 1966. His live performances have been influenced by Hendrix's cover, to the extent that they have been called covers of a cover. The singer has performed the song live more than any of his other ones, with over 2,250 recitals.  

GROANER'S CORNER:(( President Lincoln was approached by a woman after a political speech… If you were my husband I would poison your tea. Lincoln replied...if you were my wife I’d gladly drink it.

- Patient: Well, doc, what does the X-ray of my head show?
Doctor: Nothing.

- Two golden-agers were discussing their husbands over tea. "I do wish that my Elmer would stop biting his nails. He makes me terribly nervous."  My Billy used to do the same things," the older woman replied, "but I broke him of that pesky habit."  "How?"  "I hid his teeth!"

- A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter. So he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have circled the block 10 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment. FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES."  When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer along with this note: "I've circled this block for 10 years. If I don't give you a ticket, I'll lose my job. LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION."
