ODE TO THE HOT DOG.....AT THE JUNKYARD DOG...........

O.K. IN A PREVIOUS POST I MENTIONED ABOUT FINDING THIS GREAT LITTLE SPOT ALONG THE ROAD.

WE HAD OUR DOGS AND IT PROMPTED ME TO WRITE THIS LITTLE DITTY~~~~

ODE TO THE HOT DOG

I was conceived of long ago at the Great Chicago Fair

There were so many sights to see

that no one seemed to care

A simple rolled up sandwich

of meat within some bread

People gulped me down in several bites

with nothing being said

Of how unique and simple

this meat within a bun

Could be held in hand while walking

and eaten on the run

My name evolved over time

Not knowing whence it came

But it remains with me to this day

and no one's changed my name

You will always find me

at ballgames, concession stands

and such

At small town restaurants and diners

I'm oft'times offered at lunch

I am the lowly hot dog

rolled up inside a bun

You will more than likely find me

with LAUGHTER, SMILES AND FUN

I know...... I have way......tooo...much time on my hands while traveling.

Teeeeheeeee!!!!!

Hope you enjoyed my little ditty today.

Smiles to all

P.S. once again I apologize for not being able to leave comments as I would like on all you lady's wonderful blogs....the WI FI connections in these parks is often so weak I cannot download the blogs and comments are often unable to post.

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate. Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive. I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1. Listing our current home the end of the first week in November. We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance. We just want to be able to live more and work less. Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there. 2. Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest. We will visit 5 countries along the way. One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany. My family left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young. Memories are almos

PUTTING ON MY GYPSY SHOES......................

Bo Bunny Paper Collection Well.......the coach is packed...the laundry done in the condo....and we will be on our way tomorrow. I often do feel like a gypsy moving from one spot to another....and each year my gratitude grows as I am able to continue this lifestyle. I truly would love to "do up" my coach in Gypsy Style...but alas....not too practical as things probably would be flying all over as we traveled down the road. (O: But.....a girl can dream.....can't she? ~~~ My suitcase is packed with memories To be opened further down the road When my caravan must be halted The bag waits to be opened Stories to be told and shared Like the gypsy's of so long ago But for now....the wheels keep turning And my case grows larger still Waiting for the day..I must be stopped And my heart, to the brim, will be filled Hugs from me to you, Jo Gypsy photos: Electric Gipsyland on Flickr

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is a picture of our little tree this year. Each year our trees seem to be smaller, a function of our getting older and just wanting to deal with less stuff. I'm sure a few of you feel them same. Although it does seem to be a little weird that we want to deal with fewer Christmas decorations and give each other MORE STUFF in the way of presents under the tree. Ahhh...being human is such a quandary sometimes! MERRY CHRISTMAS Jo
