ANYWAY, THESE HAVE BEEN MY THOUGHTS THIS PAST WHILE

 YES WE DO HAVE A LOT OF SNOW IN OUR PARK

An inch of snow overnight is better than a foot of snow so I have little to complain about today.  Darn!!  With high winds blowing loose snow around, Pheebs and I headed off down Bayfield River Road to the end and back again.  Didn't even pick up my camera to take my usual picture of the road conditions ahead but upon arriving back at the Park I drove around taking a few pics here and there showing the build-up of snow.

 NEW HOUSE FOR SALE IN THE PARK...READY TO MOVE IT

The past bunch of days and weeks sitting around in this cold bleak unhealthy environment my mind sure has been turning back to the great American Southwest again.  It was our second home for a number of years during the winter and we loved it.  I do not, do not, do not, want to have to spend another depressing long cold winter in this miserable freezing climate with heaping piles of snow everywhere.  My mind is once again focusing southwards to a climate and a lifestyle I loved and so dearly missed.  At 80+, time is running out for me and I don't want to have to spend my remaining years trapped inside my house by snowstorms and freezing weather.  If I could find myself a nice little reliable Class B+ van at a decent price I just might have half a chance of working on a future dream while there is still enough time left to even have a dream.  And doing some camping and summer trips right here in good old Canada too.  Anyway, these have been my thoughts this past while as I sit here staring blankly out the window.  I still have a sense of adventure and I do not want to lose that!!  And besides, I not only want but need new and exciting things in my life if I'm going to keep myself and this blog going.  I've got to get the wheels rolling again and I can't do that by aimlessly sitting on my duff day after day.  The future waits for no one............

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Marine biology researchers have developed a new method to fend off shark attacks.  If you are diving and are approached by a shark, they recommend that you swim toward it aggressively and punch it in the nose as hard as possible.  If this doesn't work, beat the shark with your stump.

A minister stood in front of his congregation and announced, "I have good news and bad news. The good news is we have enough money to pay for our new building program. The bad news is that it’s still in your pockets.”

A man walks into a police station and asks to speak to the burglar who broke into his house the night before.  "I’m sorry sir, but you'll get your chance in court,” says the duty officer.  “No, you don’t understand,” says the man. “I want to know how he got in the house without waking the wife. I've been trying to do that for years.”
