Finding a frozen lake

Solid. A late February visit to our Onondaga Lake Park found the water frozen clear over to the other side. The park workers were wise enough to close off dock access, warning people not to use it for a launching pad out beyond. It’s been cold, yes, but I don’t think they want to encourage…

Yummy says a lot

Ready to dig in. Lobster tacos at the Beach Bar. Yes, please. Wish you could taste it. Thought you might want a closer look. Another discovery. The lime-sauced lobster paired perfectly with this year’s local beer, a Kolsch brewed specially for the Ocean House Beach Bar by South Dennis brewery Devil’s Purse. Feeling at home.…

Power

Observations

When Paul Curran titles his weekly Sunday guest column Observations, well, I certainly sit up and take notice. Hey, it’s hot on that side of the border, too. Welcome to the weekly coffee and tea garden. My name is Paul, I’ll be your barista today and I’m happy to be here at Mark Bialczak’s Little…
