ANTIBIOTICS FOR KELLY AND BLOODWORK FOR ME

 GODERICH'S LIGHTHOUSE

With my semi-annual Diabetes check-up next week I had to slip up to the  Dynacare Lab in Goderich this morning to have blood work done.  I don't take Pheebs along whenever I have appointments because one never knows how long the appointment could be backed up and I don't want her sitting in the car.  Need I say it was another beautiful sunny September morning:))

 IN YESTERDAY'S POST I MENTIONED ABOUT THE BEAN HARVEST BEING JUST AROUND THE CORNER...WELL, IT WAS A SHORT CORNER BECAUSE I SAW THIS FELLA HARVESTING HIS BEANS THIS MORNING

Following my bloodwork at Dynacare, I headed to Tim Hortons for a coffee to go then took myself for a little drive down to the north harbor and then back around to the south harbor.  Snapped a few pics along the way.  A quick stop at the Canadian Tire store for some grass seed and home I went.

 I DIDN'T KNOW THEY HAD BOAT CRUISES IN GODERICH

 MORNING FISHERMEN AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE GODERICH HARBOR

 NOT ALL THE BOYS WERE FISHING THOUGH, SOME WERE HERE AT THE NEARBY MAITLAND GOLF COURSE

"HEY BILL, IS THAT THE WATUSI YOUR DOING OVER THERE"

 "SHUSH UP MARV, I'M WORKING ON SOME NEW MOVES"

 OKAY, I'M GONNA GET SERIOUS NOW

Reworked the ground up in front of the sunroom near the birdfeeder, raked out the driveway, and painted a piece of plywood that will sit atop the bird station pole with a metal bird feeder sitting atop it.  And, I finished up my grass re-seeding project in front of the sunroom.  My part is done and now it's up to the grass seed to grow me some grass.

Due to an unforeseen medical problem that suddenly cropped up Kelly was able to get a hold of her Nurse Practitioner in Goderich and arrange a 2:30 appointment this afternoon.  She insisted she didn't need me to drive her there so off she went.  Home a few hours later, she is now on antibiotics.

Al's Music Box:)) Rip It Up is a rock and roll song written by Robert Blackwell and John Marascalco. In June 1956, Specialty Records released it as a single by Little Richard.  In 1956, Bill  Haley & His Comets released a version of the song which reached number 25 on the Hot 100, and number four in the UK Singles Chart.  Bill Haley & His Comets were an American rock and roll band formed in 1947 and continued until Haley's death in 1981. From late 1954 to late 1956, the group recorded nine Top 20 singles, one of which was number one and three that were Top Ten. The single "Rock Around the Clock" was the best-selling rock single in the history of the genre and maintained that position for several years.  Band leader Bill Haley had previously been a Western swing performer; after recording a rockabilly version of Ike Turner and his Kings of Rhythm's "Rocket 88', one of the first rock and roll recordings, Haley changed his band's musical direction to rock music. They went on to record hit versions of "Shake, Rattle, & Roll", the aforementioned "Rock Around the Clock", "See You Later, Alligator", and "Rip It Up".

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Some friars needed to raise more money for books for the school, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds.  Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good brothers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him.  So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop.  Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that "Only Hugh can prevent florist friars."

A grocer put up a sign that read "Eggplants, 25 cents each — three for a dollar."  All day long, customers came in exclaiming: "Don't be ridiculous! I should get four for a dollar!"  Meekly the grocer agreed and packaged four eggplants. The tailor next door had been watching these antics and finally asked the grocer, "Aren't you going to fix the mistake on your sign?"  "What mistake?" the grocer asked. "Before I put up that sign no one ever bought more than one eggplant."

Two rednecks are walking down different ends of a street toward each other, and one is carrying a sack. When they meet, one says, "Hey Tommy Ray, what'cha got in th' bag?"  "Jus' some chickens."  "If I guesses how many they are, can I have one?"  "Shoot, ya guesses right and I'll give you both of them."  "OK. Umm... five?"
