It's that time of year again when more people and pooches are out on Oscoda's many wonderful trails. As veteran hikers know, the trails are ripe for different kinds of ticks. In fact, there are three different types of the pest to be found around Oscoda. The Iosco News has a handy guide from earlier this month of how you and your pets can stay safer outside using natural ingredients.
Very informative, Johnny learned in researching ticks one type only needs three days about 32ยบ to become active, meaning they can latch onto you all times of the calendar year.
Let's get everyone's Memorial Day weekend off to a hot start tonight with a great Music Series shall we? Starting us off tonight the brilliance of Roxy Music and 'More Than This'
In all honesty, Johnny just wanted to post a song tonight with Offa in the title. He didn't have to look far for 'Get Up Offa That Thing' by James Brown.
Taking us out tonight one of the better bands with two of the same name. Some of the more comical failures in this regard would of course be Garbage Garbage, Humperdinck Humperdinck and of course Wang Chung Wang Chung. 'Union of the Snake' submitted for your approval.
Johnny better hear some singing out there tonight. If you can't keep up with Smokey (and there are few who can) you can try backup. Get busy. 'The Tracks of My Tears' stepping us off tonight.
The Music Series does not shy away from hard questions. How much better could Oasis have been as a band if the Gallagher brothers weren't at each other's throats so often? Feel free to discuss in comments. Taking us out tonight the timeless, 'Wonderwall'
A voice that just mainlines itself into Johnny's soul. Oh how he loves Chaka Khan. Hey, would you look at that, it's Johnny's blog so he can just post Chaka Khan music.
The Motown and Saginaw legend turns 72 today. Johnny can think of no better way to take the Music Series out than with one of his fantabulous songs. 'Master Blaster (Jammin')' it is!
Pencils, straws, sticks, face it when you first heard this song you picked up anything that looked like drumsticks and gave it a whirl. It's ok, the percussion IS that good in 'The Glamorous Life' as to make someone with no hope to play as well as Sheila E.
Lucky you, you get to try it all again tonight all these years later.
