WE DUSTED UP A FEW COUNTRY ROADS

 WHILE WORKING ON MY FRONT YARD PROJECT TODAY I HAD SOME AMPHIBIOUS SUPERVISION KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON ME
I know I sound like an old broken record every day talking about our marvelous September weather but it simply just about overshadows everything else.  Day-long sunshine, perfect temperatures in the mornings, late afternoons, evenings, and overnight. 

 THESE ARE MARVELOUS WEATHER MORNINGS
 TOUCHES OF COLOR

BEANS CONTINUE TO RIPEN
Pheebs and I headed off to our country road walking spot but she wasn't too interested in a walk so we didn't go very far.  It was nice to see a few butterflies including Monarchs flitting around us but I was disappointed not hear any Crickets.  We dusted up a few country roads and came home.

 JUST LOVE CRUISING ALONG SLOW ON THE COUNTRY ROADS EVERY MORNING

 A MONTH FROM NOW THE CORN HARVEST WILL BE DRAWING NEAR
 FOR SOME TYPES OF BEANS THE ANNUAL BEAN HARVEST IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Before the early afternoon's humidity drove me inside, I was able to cut down and cut up a couple small overgrown backyard Sumac trees.  I was also able to get a little more done on my front yard project in front of the sunroom.  I have a birdseed feeder hanging there and it's always a big mess of birdseed husks on the ground.  Squirrel, Chipmunk, and bird traffic on the ground is heavy enough at times to make it difficult for grass to grow.  I had covered this area with stone dust in the Spring but have decided to change things again.  I took out the stone dust, worked up the ground, and put a large concrete patio slab directly under the feeder.  I will next plant grass seed around the slab and hopefully return the area to grass again.  Well, that's the plan anyway.    

Al's Music Box:)) Rockin' Robin is a song written by Leon Rene' under the pseudonym Jimmie Thomas, and recorded by American singer Bobby Day in 1958. It was Day's biggest hit single, becoming a number two hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and spent one week at the top of the R&B sales chart.  Michael Jackson recorded his own version of the song in 1972, which also achieved success.  AND...seeing how last night's Michael Buble' version of 'Put Your Head On My Shoulder' didn't go over so well, here is Paul Anka himself singing his very own song.  Put Your Head On My Shoulder

 AN ANGELHAIR COBWEB ON THE EAST SIDE OF OUR FRONT PORCH
GROANER'S CORNER:(( At the police station, Bubba explained to the police officer why his cousins shot him.  "Well," Bubba began, "We wuz havin' a good time drinking, when my cousin Ray picked up his shotgun and said, 'Hey, der ya fellows wanna go hunting?'"  "And then what happened?" the officer interrupted.  "From what I remember," Bubba said, "I stood up and said, 'Sure, I'm game.'"

- Just once, I want a username and password prompt to say, "Close enough!"

People who think they know everything upset those of us who do.


 
- I'm a multitasker.  I can listen, ignore, and forget all at the same time!

“Doctor, you told me I have a month to live and then you sent me a bill for $1,000! I can’t pay that before the end of the month!”  “Okay, you have six months to live.”

- "I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that "I Do," is the longest sentence?
-----------------------------------------

Bill was 26 over par by the eighth hole; he had landed a fleet of golf balls in the water hazard, and dug himself into a trench fighting his way out of the rough. When his caddy coughed during a 12-inch putt, Bill exploded.  "You've got to be the worst caddy in the world!" he screamed.  "I doubt it," replied the caddy. "That would be too much of a coincidence."

  2. Ha. You need some readers young enough NOT to have had Paul Anka's version circulating around in their lives. That version was in mine, and when Buble started reviving things, I thought, that's nice. Glad you have had such wonderful September days - ours will come in October. It's been in the 90's this week, pushing 100 one day.....So enjoy!

  3. Happy to hear the Paul Anka version today, thanks Al. We had a winter day with fog, drizzle and barely into the 50's today. This weather is great for the those fighting our large wildfire that is close by.

  4. Sounds like we have similar weather. It is a nice changed from the "heat bomb" experienced this summer. Yard work is never ending isn't it. My yard to do list keeps getting longer before the winter.

  6. My Dad was a jazz drummer. He was good friends with Paul Anka's drummer, Bobby Maloy. :)
