Good Evening Port Ontario!
A beautiful day here in the Port today as the mercury climbed into the 80's with blue skies and sunshine all day. Tomorrow we are back to reality as rain is expected. Believe it or not the grass is starting to brown out already so we could use a little rain. I can't believe I said that, given the monsoon we had a couple weeks ago.
I had a most productive day today. I was up by 715, had my bed striped and in the washer, including the bedspread, by 730 and the bed remade by 9AM. I stripped two cabins and had that linen washed and back on the shelf by 12 noon. I put away all the stuff that I brought back from the northern outpost yesterday, lots of dry food goods and 2 grocery bags full of medicine cabinet crap. I then hopped on the mower and mowed the entire place and still had time to catch the start of the golf at 3PM. I am not finished yet. After a small healthy snack, not, mallow cups and a soda, I cleaned the office of all the junk I have been depositing there for the past week. I was then able to watch the final hour of the golf.
Speaking of golf, what a three weeks Jason Dufner has had. Three weeks ago he won his first ever professional gold event. The following weekend he got married and today he won again for the second time in 3 weeks. So that is a first win ever, first marriage ever, and another win. Can you say holy sh_t , I mean holy cow. That is a very impressive 3 weeks. Anytime a professional golf can win and then take a week off and then return and win again, he/she is dialed in, quite well. Jason becomes the second 2 time winner on tour this year.
We had a surprise visitor at the campground yesterday in the form of the Oil Conglomerate. I had to pinch myself to make sure that I was not dreaming. On second thought, I had better not be talking about dreaming about the Oil Conglomerate. The OC had many bugs to work out of his camper and he did so with his usual dispatch. Unfortunately, we will not see him again until July as he has commitments elsewhere. We will watch over his boat as it now resides in the back end of the campground. That is at least, one step closer to the water. We ended up with a 70 percent occupancy rate in the campground this weekend, which is pretty good the weekend before a holiday. TV reports that Tammy is doing better and they should be here next weekend. I don't think I have seen a TV show yet this season so I am looking forward to a good one.
It is currently 86 degrees as I post this blog at 624Pm. It is times like this that I wish we had a swimming pool on site. Can't you just see the likes of me, Chumley, CC and Uncle Charlie sitting around the pool. I wonder if they sell a speedo big enough for me to fit into? I was referring to wasit size there folks so get your minds out of the gutter. Maybe next year we should work on an in ground swimming pool. It would be worth it just to see all us fatsos poolside.
Abdel Baset al-Megrahi has died at age 60. Abdel is the SOB that was responsible for bringing down Pan AM flight 103 and killing 270 people. He was imprisoned but was released in 2009 as a humanitarian gesture as he was dying of cancer. Well the bastard sure took his sweet time dying. No amount of suffering would be enough for the countless lives this man ruined.
Speaking of swimming pools our own TV has a pool at his house in Pennsylvania. He also has a redneck pool for us here at camp. He has taken the cover off the bed of his pickup truck, lined the bed with plastic and filled the bed with water. Problem is, by the time he got to Port Ontario, all the water had sloshed out. That TV is always sloshed one way or the other. I can just see him in that back of his pickup pool with a Keystone in his hand.
Enjoy you night all and I hope to be back at it again tomorrow. |
