Ohhhh NO We Have Trailer Trash In The Family Again

But I have to say.. .kind of nice trailer trash ... he he .....This blog is for every one but it is especially for Flo, Peter, Pauline and the three boys...
We were up to see the trailer this afternoon with Roger and I took a ton of pictures of the area and the trailer.... and here they are... oh yes please excuse some of the picture they were taken through the car window and Roger didn't have it cleaned for me... he he

And the tour begins....

This is the front enterance of the camp grounds... 

If you are a vistor or no little ticket on your car you have to park here... and walk.. but it is not all that far to get to Roger and Flo's trailer...

There is a place for all kinds of junk food.... 

You have to pass the guard before getting into the grounds.. he he 

There is a swimming pool for the kids .... and adults of course....

Washrooms and laundry rooms... 

And a play ground.. there are lots of children and lots of bikes... so drive very carefully ...

And there she be... home away from home...

And who was there to greet me he he but Roger and that funny character behind him making a very scary face.... 

The Master bedroom before I got there....

The master bedroom after I get there.... already... for company

Ohhhh I think it is already for Flo ... Roger is waving hello... when are you coming home... I am missing you.... 
This is the boys bedroom .... someone not saying who but we all know who it was... forgot to bring up the rest of the bed clothing so I could get that together too... maybe the next time... 
The third bed in the boys's bedroom.... 
The kitchen and living room area... 
and to the bathroom we go... ohh that is what papa always says he he....
another view of the bathroom
ohhh look at this a full bath tub... a little short on the tub but I am sure the short people in our family can use it.. not saying who that is.. .he he 
and out to the kitchen... the fridge...
The fridge with the most important things in it... coke for Roger and wine for Flo... 
Roger is already in the fridge looking for something.... 
the sinks...
the cupboards with dishes in them... 
The stove covered
the stove uncovered... hey what can I say Roger said take lots of photos... 
the kitchen counter and more cupboards
the new coffee maker and toaster...
the mirror in the living room/ kitchen area

Carl setting the time of the micro wave...
Roger and Carl just relaxing and chatting... that is what this place is for... relaxing 
the music system 
Roger locking up for the day... he will be back up with mom and dad tonight... 
And Peter and Pauline you just have to go out of the grounds across the road to do your groceries... up the road a bit is a fish shop .....down the road is a few resturants... ohhh I am sure there is more and Flo can tell you because I think I stopped listening to Roger just about that time... by the trans Canada it is only about 15 minutes to nanny and papa Melanson's... 

Looking forward to seeing Flo again soon... and Peter and Pauline when you and the boys show up this summer... have a great one... Love Jo... 

I tried to start a blog yesterday but my alone time was up and it was time to get my day started and actually do something besides sitting in front of the computer which would have been very easy since it called for rain all day... so working outside would have been out of the question...
Actually that is where I should be at the moment because Carl is out there working in the flower beds with the little tiller... we are giving up on the mulch this year in most of the beds and using the tiller to get rid of those bloody weeds that I can't seem to control very much... by the time I am done weeding the beds which takes about 5 days I have to start all over again... especially the ones that look like little Christmas trees when they come out of the ground... they are worst then the weeds from hell aka bishops weeds... I can't believe that I actually seen some of the Bishop's weed being sold at Canadian Tire this year... any way I should be out there behind him smoothing out the beds as he goes along and as you can see what I should be doing is not what I am doing this morning... he he ... but then when the heck do I do what I am suppose to be doing any way... LOL...
As I was getting ready to leave yesterday Carl was out checking on the bird feeders and discovered that we had a very big visitor to the feeders the night before... not one we wanted to even see in our yard but it was here... a black bear cub actually... it cleaned out all the feeders, bent the Shepard hooks, and then had the nerve to leave its droppings behind as if it was saying I was here and you can't do anything about it... we know it is a cub because it was back last night trying to get to the feeders that are in the front of the kitchen window... and every body knows if there is a cub around mother bear is not to far behind...
A few days ago I was driving down to the house and passed a field where the bears are normally seen but I had not seen them for a few years but every time I pass I slow down to check it out... I was wondering where they were.... then I met up with one of our neighbors at the gas bar and he was telling me that there was a mother with two cubs around the area and they were putting out traps for them because they are actually coming up on to the patios not thinking that they would even come close to the house... boy was I mistaken or what...
Back to yesterday... it would usually take about an hour or so to get to Jardin's but yesterday we left the house about 11:30 and only got back at 6:30... very nice day trip for us without leaving the area... stopped in at the Bargain Shop along the way... picked up a few things there... then stopped at a shoe place that I always go looking for my shoes at.. no luck this time... dropped in at a garage sale... and then to the garden center to visit the gazebo that we have fallen in love with but there is no way we will buy it... it is made of cast iron and the price tag is 5000.00.... but boy if we had the funds for it... and we actually bought it I know where it would go in the yard but that is one of those things you think about and put out of your head because it is not going to happen... so going back to reality we picked up a couple of trays of Petunia and a tray of gazania and went out merry way... to visit and see what Jerry has been up to with the camp ground... Cedar Cove.. and there were many changes there... a short visit with Claudette since she was already up at the campgrounds...
As we headed up a drop in to say hi to both parents and home for relaxing and movies... the end to a perfect day... think we should do this more often... actually...
Well I think it is time for me to get some breakfast and get out and help Carl before we decide what else we are going to do ...
Have a great Sunday all... Joanne

Some actual Melanson News

There is actually Melanson news today... Dad was to the doctor's for his legs on Monday and all is good... he got cream and some anti-bi for it and roger is handling the cream part of it... thank you so very much... dad was also to the eye doctor last night for his 3 month shots... that also went okay until they went to Walmart to get his drops and it took over an hour to get them... same thing happened when I went for my medication yesterday morning... that is all I have to say we miss you Hal so very much....
Pat I am hoping that you are feeling better today.. because she has been down with a terrible cold all week and has not even been to work...
Besides that there is not a lot going on around here... Roger got their trailer set up last week ... have not been up there yet to see it but you know there will be photos to follow when we do get up there...
As for us we are still working on the yard... I am slower then Carl at what I am doing... I think I mentioned that the veggie garden has become 3 times the size it was suppose to be... but he is still working at it... nothing is planted yet but it is way too early for it to be as we have had frost warnings for the last three nights.. but come June it should all be in... as for my part of the year... well I am getting there when I am home... the last two days have been great for being outside but I have been out and about with mom and shopping for the house so maybe today I will get some time in the flower beds.... and get some work done... though yesterday I finally transplanted all the jumping jacks we picked up at Carl's parents place on Sunday... did some miracle growing as well... and putting the markers for all the hostas that we have out on the pathway... maybe next year I will find them easier then this year....

Of course our little feather friends are totally enjoying what is being put out for them...which means I get to take some wonderful photos of them...
Well off to start my day finally... hope everyone is having a wonderful Hump day... Joanne

Just another Sunday

Sunday and rainy not a lot going on with this woman... but did get a tray of jumping jack off Carl's parents lawn before it started to rain...their lawn was full of them.... so I know what I am going to be doing tomorrow morning if it is not raining out....

Mrs. Nutty.... at the feeders yesterday.....

As you notice this is a little Mrs. Nutty.... and boy is she eating ... non stop actually... after she emptied a few of the peanut trays I have hanging in the trees ....

She went to the bird bath that I put some seeds in instead of water....

she was close enough to have not problems getting closed ups of what she was actually eating...

Isn't she a cutie.. he he

Have a great one... and Yvette sorry got into a few movies tonight and only thought of calling you when I came upstairs for bed... which was midnight... don't think you would have appreciated that call LOL.... have a good trip sis... talk to you when you get back... Joanne

My Thrill For Saturday....

When I came back from town this morning I thought the wind was blowing and there were no little black buggers out to bite me to death... I was going to get some more of the lights up and decorations... well that lasted all of an hour and decided to fill up the feeders... which I totally enjoying though as I was filling Carl came around and found a red breasted gross beak that got hooked up in the net that was holding the clematis on the tree... there is no more netting on the tree and the clematis is cut way down from what it was when we put it there a few weeks ago....


I have taken many photos of birds that have landed on the feeders in our yard and enjoyed doing so over and over again but today I have a rare opportunity to take a few photos of this bird that I wait for to return every year because it is the one that I have to work the hardest to get good photos of ....


But today I decided to go out and sit to watch all the birds coming to the feeders just to relaxed and take some photos and of course Mrs. Nutty... she is always a fun to watch... but all of a sudden I noticed something out of the corner of my eye... and being in the blonde mode today said well that is way too small of a bird to be at the feeders and then realized that it wouldn't be coming to these feeders... I watched it and it went to the bleeding heart....and I got pictures of the hummer doing its thing at the flowers instead of the hummer feeder... ohh so very cool... awesome to me any way... but then I don't have much of a life... so this was very exciting he he....


Totally out standing ...

They are so beautiful...

I do have other photos but will post them later.... Have a great one... Joanne
