Hello Johnny Sparton, About 20 yrs ago out here in Western Canada, I befriended an elderly Gentleman in our local coffee shop. Apparently he was in the German army at the end of WW2. He was in the youth troops. He spoke of the war,(which he hated) and what happened in Germany and surrounding countries after the war. He had some rather amazing stories, of what happenened after the war, and what world prominent person owned this,or that. I asked him how he knew these things, he just looked at me and smiled, then looked at his freemason ring. Sure made me wonder, You have a Good one Johnny,
Hello Lindsyjones, I follow the refugee crisis in Europe on the news, and don t know what to think, . There is the compassion a person has for people who are displaced due the wars, and revolutions in their homeland , then there is the curiousity about how many of these people are refugees, and how many are just looking for handouts. Here in Canada, our country has taken in a good number of immigrants from throughout the world in the last few years. A lot of them are hard working, decient people, but a good number of them will tell you of hardships in their homeland,just before they jump into 70,000$ vehicles, and drive away,
Hello FlyJames, from western Canada, . Summer is on its way out here, Autumn has shown up. I m getting the house stocked up for winter, never know what old man winter has in store for us. A few of the neighbors have taken off their gardens, and have dropped me off some veggies, (potatos, beets, turnips,....), they spoil me, And a few of my cousins kids, who still hunt usually drop me something off . When I was younger ,I usually checked on my older relatives , and dropped them off produce from my garden, or shared meat from my hunting trips, and now those acts of kindness are being returned. What I give away in my younger days is coming back. I ll be cooking up some mighty fine meals for a few of my neighbors, It breaks up the boredom of winter. You have a Good One Bud,
Hello Jim, , A lot of wise words there, Thanks, As for the Six Best Docters in the World, , I can attest to those.

Hello Nam, As usual its nice to hear of your travels , reminds me of my traveling days. You mentioned the trees are a changing, the trees up here are changing ever so slowly, Usually this time of year the geese start bunching up for their southern migration, even that has been slow to happen I keep hoping for a later winter, but have learnt to never underestimate Old Man Winter, he is a fellow full of surprizes. You have a Good One there Bud,
Hello Gentlejim I have a problem with No 5, I try to be polite to everyone, but there are people out there who don t know the meaning of manners, and being respectful, or when these traits are shown to them, These type of people are ,in my words BEHINDS, and I couldn t be bothered with them. I hope I m not becoming miserable, You have a Good One there Jim,
Hello Track16 We have a local fishing club in the area, where a bunch of fellows get together for a weekend of fishing. Some of the fellows have been known to forget their fishing tackle at home, the wives aren t impressed.

Hello Johnny Sparton , I ve found listening to others problems, turmoil sure can bring a person down. I try and be a sympathetic ear to friends with problems , after listening to too much, I notice I don t enjoy, and appreciate the good things in my life. I do have a few older friends who avoid listening to others problems, they sure are a happy group, I think I m going to go there,
Hello Nam, Thanks for the updates on your travels,sure enjoy them, Hearing of the things you see on your travels sure brings back memories of my traveling day, Thanks there Bud, appreciate it. You take care,
Hello Nam, Just had to say, I sure enjoy your blogs about your travels, . They bring back a lot of good memories of my travels across Saskatchwan , at any hr of the day or night, prior to me coming down with MS. I remember the wildlife was something to behold in the early morning hours, both the four,and two legged variety. , and you re probably too familiar with those. Keep up the Good work there Bud, Thanks
Hello Catfoot, Years ago ,in western Canada, porcupines were a protected animal. The reason for this was, if someone working in the wilderness got lost, a porcupine was an animal that could be easily killed for a meal. But as time went on that fell by the wayside. Nowadays,here, porcupines never seem to cause any big problems, I think our cold winters keep their numbers in check. You have a Good one,
Hello sands88 I used to drive a government vehicle for 20 yrs. The work , road construction involved putting a lot of miles on while driving across the province, so I kept my vehicle in good repair. Everytime I took it in for routine servicing , and repairs , Mechanics, would go overboard wanting to do needless expensive work, The vehicles were fleet vehicles on a company credit card, which I was responsible for, so I told these greedy people any not needed work done ,head office would be told, and your garage would not be seeing any future work on government vehicles. That sure changed the service I got,
Hello, Nam, I figure you put up a lot of good advice there. Love No 7, if it ain t broken, don t fix it As for No 14, I thought I was the only one who had family like that, Just kidding, I trust most of my family , but some of them You have a Good One Nam,
Hello peonyjenny, I tend to agree with you, health is No 1. I have a disability, Ms, have to use a cane. Even though my ms isn t that bad, its taken me to a point where if I cant do something proper, I don t care to try. I ve given up fishing ,hunting, working.... And with a disability I definitely get a hands off approach, when it comes to relationships, even though Im probably more active than a lot of people that don t have disabilities. I do a lot of volunteer work for the ms society, and see so many people unable to enjoy life fully. Yes health is No 1 You have a Good DAy,

Hello Lindsyjones, The words Brigitte Gabriel spoke sure carried a powerful message.I believe in what she is saying.It sure gets a person thinking. I hope the public ,on both sides of our border listen to her message, We ve had a few acts of terrorism here in Canada, and people being converted , and immigrants wanting to back to fight . Theres no end in sight, I wish there was a lot more speakers like Brigitte Gabriel
Sunny, , Back Again, Cat, had some great advice, on the earlier blog. Getting involved in the community, is a great way to meet people. I do volunteer work in the community, met a lot of people, and that feeling of accomplishment makes a person feel good, , You have a Good One,
Hello Sunny, Sounds like you have the same attitude I had about dating sites. Now I make a point of getting out more, meeting people, chatting, and enjoying myself. Shopping, browsing in stores, out for meals, libraries, just getting out, has been more entertaining than dating sites. As for CS, I enjoy the blogs, chatting with people from around the world, interesting articles, but getting out is part of socializing , and meeting people. Get out and enjoy yourself, you might surprize yourself who you might meet, Have a Good One,
