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…

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.

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…

We had to walk on the beach in the window

Thank goodness for the cap of good and proper timing. When a little opening in the clouds came during our Cape Cod trip, away to the beach we went. Our usual public beach had its familiar sights. My dear wife Karen was happy to feel at home. No matter that she grew up on the…

A reluctant dog accepts her ice cream

Our location on the ocean side of the main road for this year’s Cape Cod stay made it a fairly easy walk for the three of us to our favorite ice cream place, Sundae School. Our cherished rescue mutt Ellie B and I got to admire the old way they delivered the stuff as my…
