With another winter storm upon us my mind today has yet again gone into blah winter mode and put a kybosh on my writing mood. Early this afternoon Pheebs and I slipped into the Porter's Hill Wild Bird Seed Company for three twenty-pound bags of birdseed. Took a few pics along the way and that was it for another day.........(sigh)

The highest-charting version was by Guy Mitchell and the first recording of the song was by Marty Robbins. Guy Mitchell's recording was released in October 1956 and spent ten weeks at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard chart from 8 December 1956, to 2 February 1957. An example of the U.S. recording is on Columbia, dated 1956, with the Ray Conniff Orchestra.

GROANER'S CORNER:(( During a performance for the high school talent show at the local theater, a hole was cracked in the stage floor. Subsequent acts managed to avoid the damaged area until little Freddy, juggling bowling pins, accidentally stepped through the hole up to his knee. He apologized to the audience for his clumsiness. But a heckler in the back of the theater shouted: "Don't worry, Freddy! It's just a stage you're going through!"

A preacher, newly called to a small country town, needed to mail a letter. Passing a young boy on the street, the pastor asked where he could find the post office. After getting his answer, the minister thanked the boy and said, “If you’ll come to the community church this evening, you can hear me tell everyone how to get to heaven.” “I don’t know, sir,” the boy replied. “You don’t even know how to get to the post office!”

Love Kelly's Corner; Al you need to get out of that heavily snowed area or you'll freeze your buns off ! 😳 😁
ReplyDeleteit DOES seem a long winter. Even down here in TX. Our low this week is to be 11F.
ReplyDeleteSigh. Two more weeks until the end of February.
Glad you got out! Gorgeous, wintry photos. Interesting to see the ice fishing huts.
ReplyDeleteIce fishing...wow. BRRRR. Glad you were able to get out of the house briefly, and back home safely. Stay warm and safe. Hugs to Pheebs. Barb M.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that your photos are mostly dreary winter colors except for a few spots of red, orange, or yellow. From the construction barrels, to ice huts, to the lady's coffee cup. And, I hate winter almost as much as you. We got dumped on again & the upcoming week looks frigid. Yuck.! Just trying to hang on till March 1st & pray for early Spring. Best wishes to You & Pheebs.
ReplyDeleteWow, real winter! Too bad we can't disperse it more evenly as we could sure use some of that moisture here. Amen to salt and sugar! I'd love that wooden kitchen, what a beauty.
ReplyDeleteYou are really having a very snowy winter this year. I like snow but not that much:) You and Pheebs stay warm!
ReplyDeleteYes, I enjoy bright sunny winter days, but it has gone on long enough, and we've definitely had enough snow!
