All in all this summer has kicked off with a bang and things are starting to get hot around here.
The Burton Street Family home took on a new member Terry, welcome to the Hood. Also a Congrat's Terry on your new home down the street.

Dennis's Celebrated his 50TH Birthday twice in one week. Happy Birthday Darling!!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

And the start of summer's strange cast of visitors has started.

Picture 5 ~ As you can see in the picture of Emily she looks quite perturd! Dennis aka Papa hosed her down as she walked out of the back door.





Check Your Driver's Licence

This has been sent to many people via blind copy
Check Your Driver's License!!
Check your driver's license. I was shocked when I saw
this. I tried this and what I found was frightening!
We should all be writing our politicians about this!!!
Check your driver's license information online. Now you can see
anyone's drivers license on the Internet, including your own! It asks for
U.S.
Information, but fortunately it works for Canadian Licenses as well. I just
searched for mine and there it was....Picture and all! This is just too
much! Can
you say "invasion of privacy"?! I definitely removed mine. I suggest you
all do the same.
Go to the website and check it out. It's unbelievable!
Just enter your name ( for Canadians just leave it as "Select a State")
just type your name in(no address) to see if they have yours on file.
After your license comes on the screen, click the box marked

"Please Remove".

Smiles for Today

AMAZINGLY SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES

1. If you are choking on an ice cube simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto!

2. Avoid cutting yourself slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold while you chop.

3. Avoid arguments with the Mrs. about lifting the toilet seat by using the sink..

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer..

5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button .

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives .


7. You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

8. Remember: Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.

Daily Thought: SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES. NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH feels good



Went spent the day with Wayne and Tersea on the bikes. Rode up to Port Dover and then down along the Grand River to Brantford back home again.

It feels good after a relaxing day in the fresh air and sunshine. Must add with good laughs and fun people. Looking forward to many more trips this summer on Dennis's new bike.
