"MUD" the Movie and Other STUFF

Hands down, Joe wins in humor arena. It's not uncommon to find little surprises around the Ranch. Surely, he had to go looking for Old Stuffed Bear, left in the new-and-improved kids' room after Chloe gave him some overdue lovin'. Ah, huge smiles erupted, when I found Mr. Mascot on our neatly made-up bed. And then...
Master Of The House attempted to protect the flower tower.The poor petunias took a terrible hit, a few weeks back. Hey, what do you do with YOUR SportBrella when there's no sandy stuff around?? For the record, the beach issue is soon to be rectified... but meanwhile...
There is MUD. Lots of the stuff. So, why not watch an appropriate movie? Precisely what we did during yesterday's deluge. It was terrific. A modern-day Huck Finn, starring cute-even-when-muddy Matthew McConaughey and a fantastic supporting cast. See for yourself.
Today? Same deal. Dark. Cloudy. Threatening. An occasional tease by Old Sol. But the tomatoes don't give a damn. And the Black-Eyed Susans? They've not bloomed in nine years. Go figure. We're thinkin' they timed an awakening to muddy stuff.
Cheers!
