Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Cabernet in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"

Polar Bear Attack
in Churchill, Manitoba, Canada

These are photographs of an actual
polar bear attacking a man.


The pictures were taken while people
watched and could do nothing to stop the attack!
Reports from the
local newspaper say that the
victim will make a full
recovery.

The photos are
below.

Merry Christmas

 

It’s Christmas day and when you work for a church it’s a work day,so that’s where I’m headed this morning.

Angela and I don’t usually get anything for each other unless it’s something for our dream. Well I guess you can say this is for our dream. Angela likes to read a lot and I mean A LOT she can read a book a week or faster.

So when we hit the road I thought getting her the Kindle Fire would be the only book we would have to lug around. She can also get her e-mail,face book and movies on it. 

 

bilde 

This after noon we will head over to the daughter’s and grandkids house for the Christmas dinner.

The temps are going to be hitting around 50 and sunny today so it will be a great day.

Angela and I and the two hounds want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy RVing New Years!!!!!

Our Week In The Hood

 

Another slow week here in the hood.

Angela did get some painting done but needed to take a break. We have had good weather for this time of year but I’m sure the bottom will fall out of it soon. Last Christmas we had a blizzard going on.

Yesterday we needed to take the Dodge diesel out for a drive since it has just been sitting. Took a drive up I-29 to Platte city, MO about 10 miles north of our house. We wanted to check out the RV park we will move to when we sell the house.

We stopped at Basswood  Resort RV park  http://www.basswoodresort.com/

We wanted to ask about the extended stay rates which is not to bad for $425 per month and comes with cable. Talking to the manger we were wondering about Angela workamping  while I still worked at the church and she said yes they hire about 15 couples and she could some hours for the spot and the rest for pay. That would be great that way she can learn all about the different jobs in a campground. The manager and her husband have been fulltime for 6 years and love it.  

Also yesterday I was at my local COSTCO buying a large bag of
Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Annie, the Wonder Dog and was 
in the check-out line when a woman behind me asked if I had a
dog.
What did she think I had an elephant? So because
I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her
that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet
again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in
the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I
awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most
of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was
essentially a Perfect Diet and that the way that it works is, to
load your pants pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply eat one or
two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete
so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to
mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled
with my story.)
Horrified, she asked if I ended up in
intensive care, because the dog food poisoned me. I told her
No, I stepped off a curb to sniff a poodle's ass and a car hit
me.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart
attack he was Laughing so hard.
Costco won't let me shop
there anymore.


MORAL OF THE STORY:
Better watch what you ask retired people. They have all the time
in the World to think of crazy things to say.

Saturday the weather was nice so we unloaded all the stuff from the motor home and started putting things in the 5th wheel.

You can never start to soon getting ready,the time will be here before we know it.  

Anyone interested in buying a nice 1988 Tioga class C motor home?

Dead Penguins , I never knew this!

 

Image_image001_gif@01CCA9AF_6387B1F0 

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica – ???
Where do they go?

 

Wonder no more ! ! !
It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life.
The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life. If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes
In the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried.

 

 

 

The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:

 

 

 

"Freeze a jolly good fellow"
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."

 

Then they kick him in the ice hole.

You really didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you?
It's so easy to fool OLD people.
I am sorry, the devil made me do it!!!
I fell for it too.

SAD

 

Winter is not far off,it’s been cloudy cold and wet this weekend.

I think we both have SAD  Seasonal affective disorder because we did nothing no painting no house repair all weekend. We just had no get up and go to get anything done.

All we did was sit and watch old western movies all day Saturday. Now its Sunday morning and time to go back to  work for another week.

I have a feeling this is going to be a long boring winter, we sure hope the house sells fast this spring.
