A great way to do yourself an injury is attempting to get the plastic lid off Mott’s Garden Cocktail. Either muscle strain or knife wound is indicated.
While it looks easy, that lid is on to stay. Muscles won’t do it. My upper body strength and finger tensiles are right [...]

This is my husband who continues to meditate in our car in the minus 20 below zero weather while he waits for me to be done swimming.

This is a bit of Randy from Randy’s All Handyman Services who is an excellent person to know when you are in trouble. He unfroze [...]

I was afraid I wouldn’t look objective on recommending Eric, so I kept this draft around while compiling a list of all the possible well-deserving Other candidates but here’s what I wrote:
POET LAUREATE FOR KINGSTON ONTARIO- My VOTE GOES TO ERIC FOLSOM (Who- let’s be clear- knows nothing about this [...]

Tune: Bloody Mary – song from South Pacific)
Eric Folsom’s Poet Laur-e-ate
Eric Folsom’s Kingston’s Laureate
Eric Folsom’s Poet Laureate
Well ain’t that too damn good!
v.1) His verse is supple as a rubber book
His metaphors call for another look
His writing poetry is not forsook
Well ain’t that too damn good!
v.2) Folsom’s always chewed ideas well
Spit ‘em out in books and [...]

Here’s Terry & Cathy and an otherwise empty lane. It’s been cold (minus 26 when I took this) plus the showers have been cold too!! so attendance is down.

Here’s Wayne and Faye. She is striking what she calls a ‘cheesecake pose’ due to the camera. Don’t you miss us all already? I would’ve [...]

THIS is that wonderful poached salmon dinner at Ramikins Restaurant on Bath Road, here in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. The brown sauce is a lemon-butter sauce, the mashed potatoes are real as are the veggies.
My husband has the prime beef sandwich. Both our meals only come to 32 dollars all together in a lovely atmosphere. [...]

Tune: Down By The Riverside (Study War No More)
Gonna build the Great Cataraqui Trail
Down by the riverside
From Kingston to Smiths Falls
Despite setbacks & stalls
Gonna build the Great Cataraqui Trail
Down by the riverside
And I’ll walk its length someday!
Won’t let politics get me down
I’ll make Wellington go around
Oh, I’ll walk that trail someday
Ain’t nobody stoppin’ it now
We’ll [...]

Tune: There’s A Long, Long Trail A-Winding
There’ll be a medium-length trail winding
From Kingston to Smiths Falls
With no doves or night birds pining
Just hard work – that’s all
There’ll be a medium-length trail winding
All our dreams will come true
When the great Cat trail’s completed
Working side by side with you!
Hear the original on Youtube – Google or link [...]

Tune: Happy Trails To You (Roy Rogers Theme Song)
Be a volunteer
On the great Cataraqui Trail
Do the work, sign up
With you, we will not fail
Who cares about the vaunted opposition?
Put on your boots and swing into position!
Kingston to Smiths Falls
We’ll have a PERFECT trail!
