The sights you can spot along the creek

I joined the LPL Walking Club for its hour down and up the Syracuse Creek Walk. The photos for the library social media platforms went to the good work camera. It not take long for my iPhone 8 to come out of my pocket to snap a few for this blog as well. You’re welcome.…

Sometimes I must compare

While my dear wife Karen and I were appreciating our strolls around the neighborhood of the cottage we rented for this year’s trip to Cape Cod, we both decided it would be a good adventure to go inside the Town of Dennis Public Library. We knew we wanted to compare it, outside and in, to…

There’s a gem down there at Vesper Hills

Why would KP and Tater have me go to the end of the world and take a right to join them for our first round of golf together this season? Ah, Vesper Hills. OK, so it really took me just a bit more than a half-hour south on 81 from Liverpool and then east toward…

Sticking with your team

My terrific daughter Elisabeth immediately knew what she had to get me for my new car. It looks good, I think. My allegiance to my squad, right on and ride on.

Pierogi make us dance, too

So what would put George Three, my terrific daughter Elisabeth and my dear wife Karen in such a good mood in downtown Syracuse’s Clinton Square? We had just eaten our annual Polish Fest meal cooked up by the folks from the food-makers who travel to the event from Rome, N.Y., that’s what. Their pierogi make…

Is there a hole in this cool-looking donut shop’s aura?

The custom donut shop practically screamed our names as my dear wife Karen and I headed down Clinton Street in downtown Syracuse. Glazed and Confused. We’d heard so much about it. We had to go in and look around. Their product smelled great and looked interesting. Hover over a gallery photo for a description. Click…

Picture yourself in a Beatle-less world if you could

A lot of really bad things could happen if all the power in the world went out at once. But the memory of all Beatles music being wiped from the collective minds and history of our planet except for one guy who happened to be hit by a bus … No, that that! Yesterday starts…

Now we’re blooming

What did we spy upon our return from our Cape Cod vacation but … Backyard lilies that could not contain themselves. A hostas plant the size of an elephant’s head. White backing up the red in the front of the house. My dear wife Karen’s hard work surely pays off.

We did have a beverage or two

I almost forgot. My dear wife Karen did manage to get in a drink or so during our fabulous Cape Cod vacation. On the deck, I enjoyed a wine of Cabernet Sauvignon vintage while she chose a pre-mixed tequila pour. At the Red Nun, we both favored the Wachusett draft, blueberry style. Karen’s online research…

Never to be contacted again

As my dear wife Karen and I walked around the beach area of Dennis Port, a certain resort caught my eye because of it’s name. I’m sure Gaslighting did not mean what it does now when the owners decided to call it such. But because of the present connotation, I had to wonder if anybody…
