Government surveyors came to Ole's farm in the fall and
asked if they could do some surveying. Ole agreed and Lena even served them a
nice meal at noontime. The next spring, the two surveyors stopped by and told
Ole, "Because you were so kind to us, we wanted to give you this bad news
in person instead of by letter.
Ole replied, "What's the bad news?
The surveyors stated, "Well, after our work we
discovered your farm is not in Minnesota , but is actually in Iowa !"
Ole looked at Lena and said," That's the best news I
have heard in a long time. Why I just told Lena this morning, I don't think I
can take another winter in Minnesota.”
Relaxing on the deck can be difficult in June in Minnesota,
according to Ole.
Sven drove past Ole's house a few years ago and saw a sign
that said "Boat for sale?" I hear Sven stopped his car, backed up and
drove up to Ole's house and confronted him. "Ole," Sven said.
"You don't got no boat."
"I know," said Ole. "But I got a tractor and
a wagon and dey's boat for sale."
Awww....these were both good for a chuckle today. :)

ReplyDeleteThe devout cowboy lost his favorite Bible while he was mending fences out on the range. Three weeks later, a duck walked up to him carrying the Bible in its bill. The cowboy couldn't believe his eyes. He took the precious book out of the duck's bill, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, "It's a miracle!" "Not really," said the duck. "Your name is written inside the cover."
