A Canadian Immigrant


We met this gal at a local golf course. I asked what she was doing here? She said something about escaping the weather in Toronto. I said I didn't think it was that bad. She used a word I cannot use, this being a family blog.

Then I asked if she had any trouble getting across the border, 'cause Trump was creating more problems, even for Canadians. She said, "Nah, I flew under the radar."

I would have asked about her family but we had to keep moving. I thought I saw her later on because there were a lot of Canadian geese on the course...but...well...you know, they all look the same.

I think that this one should be sent back because we have more than enough immigrants already. Besides this one doesn't contribute much; you know, they just come here for free food and to give us a lot of crap about their need to preserve their own culture. But, be careful and watch your step.

I wonder if she's related to the noisy bunch that fly over my house every morning. I always wonder why they have to be so noisy when they are flying. Are they urging each other on? "Come on slow poke, keep up with the group." "Hey Gertie, put some muscle into it!"

This goose is the trade deficit that Donald is talking about.

I don't know why they're called Canada geese. First sign of the temperatures starting to drop, they're bolting south as fast as they can. Real Canadians tough out the winter!

Maybe you need a northern wall! ;-))

Lowell said...

Hi Red, I was able to get your idea to da Trumpf by shuffling it through the New York Mafia and Kushner and G.W. Bush and he said he liked it but you'd have to build the damn thing. Those were his exact words.

Perhaps we should but a tariff on these geese... another great(!) idea from Trump.

Wonderful portrait!

In reply to your query on my post - It is the auction for the fish that is just been brought in by the boats, hence the excitement.

I like the photo and the text together.
