A DAY OF ON & OFF SNOW SHOWERS:((

DSC_0039

It has been suggested that Friday night's blog was a bit long winded so I shall try to shorten up on tonight's effort.

We awoke to snow showers this morning & they continued on & off for the remainder of the day & that made for a cold damp & somewhat miserable Saturday.  And to think just the day before we broke a high temperature record for April 16th.

We were off in search of a metal burning barrel this morning.  We always burn our paper products & our old barrel is ka-put.  Drove all the way to a place called Walton (no mountain) but to no avail.  Later found out somebody got their W's mixed up & it was Winthrop we were to have headed for.

Last Autumn I had dragged home 4 badly beaten up Cedar trees I found laying in our natural landfill area here at the Park.  Two survived the winter & two did not so I pulled the dead one's out of the ground yesterday & replaced them with a couple of Emerald Green Cedars that we picked up at the TSC store in Goderich today.

Tonight I am publishing this blog with Live Writer on our desktop computer for the first time since last October.  I noticed it is formatted differently than my laptop so that is why it looks different tonight.  If I can't get this configured the way I want it I will probably go back to using Live Writer in the new laptop.  So far I am not having much luck in finding the right 'settings' buttons for LW on the desktop!!

DSC_0005 GROANERS CORNER:))  A few one liners to keep your mind busy for awhile.......................

-Life is nothing like the brochure.

-A bartender is just a pharmacist with a limited inventory.

-Earth first. We'll screw up the other planets later.

-Life is a trip. Do you have a ticket or are you hitch-hiking?

-The world will end the day after the warranty expires.

-I used to have a handle on life, but it broke.

-The only time the world beats a path to your door is when you're in the bathroom.

-Suburbia: where they tear out the trees and name streets after them.

-Don't sweat the petty things & don't pet the sweaty things.
