A bit of this and that....

I have run across the Willy Nilly meme several times, but never in time to join....just something that kept slipping my mind.  I have no idea why.  I loved Random 5 Fridays, but truthfully, had a hard time remembering to join it.  Hoping I will do better with the Willy Nilly Friday 5!

So here goes....

1.  I would love to own the above rat rod!  If I had it, I would want to drive it everywhere! This was from last weekend...ran across it out in the middle of nowhere.  This was taken through our windshield...

2.  Are you ready for some football!!!!  I am.  At least it is something to watch.  There is so little on TV that we enjoy.  Sometimes I think I could live just fine with Netflix and You Tube.   I have been watching episodes of New Tricks for a while now...even though I have seen them all.  Maybe not all of Season 10...I do like the episodes with all the original cast best. 

Anyway, I just happened to look, and You Tube has the Inspector Lynley Mysteries, and believe it or not, it has Foyle's War!  It is one of the greatest series ever.  At least in our opinion.  It is set in England during WWII, and he is detective.  I cannot say enough good about this series...but will admit to not watching the first couple of years just because the title did not appeal to me.  I only started watching it by accident when I landed on it without knowing that it was it...I was hooked.  Even Roger has watched them all a second time with me.

3.  Did anyone else try the 30-day free trial of Kindle Unlimited?  I tried the 30 days, and actually read several books I would not have otherwise read.  But the ones I really, really want to read were not included in Kindle Unlimited books.  If I am going to pay $9 per month, then I will just buy some of those books.  I only have about a thousand books already, and most of them I got for free.

4.  I am looking forward to the colors of autumn.  I hope for a long, extended fall season this year.  I have never grown tired of that time of year.

5.  Do you like the following song:

It is one of my all time favorite songs....
