From our deck to your halls
May the big day bring you beauty and joy. From my family to you and yours, may this be a joyful and healthy holiday.
Good landing spot
On the path or the rink. OK, Santa, you can tell Rudolph and the rest if the reindeer to take ‘er down anywhere they want right around the square. Happy Christmas Eve …
Building the bond
Looking up. OK, I thought, glancing across the street from the decorated downtown Syracuse square. The wreaths look nice for the season. But the building looks really cool no matter.
Why they call it Tipperary Hill
It clicks. I looked out and down from the perch outside the church and my brain said: Ah, yes, we are in Tipperary Hill.
Let it be a good bowl show
Nice try. When my dear wife Karen and I visited the JMA Wireless Dome for the Syracuse University football team’s final game of the regular season against Wake Forest on Nov. 25, fans were asked to take part in a end-of-the-third quarter hold-your-phone light show. Meh. Much has happened to raise hopes and expectations since…
Tasty noodles and dumplings
Interesting decor. Given an open choice for a dinner selection for a birthday celebration with my dear wife Karen, terrific daughter Elisabeth and fantastic fiancée George Three, I went with an Asian fusion spot on Erie Boulevard that’s been on my mind since it took over a crab joint earlier this year. Or maybe it…
Gazing across the lake
Life goes on. Retired-guy-I still appreciates standing here to look to the other shore and imagine what the other folks are up to amid the billowing smokestacks dotting the there end of Onondaga Lake.
The lawn can rest now
Take your seasonal slumber. I figure our lawn mower is safe in the shed until spring.
Great decorating, kids
Festive greeting. George Three did a lovely job getting his and Elisabeth’s lovely home all decked out for the holidays. Great job, kids!
Our holiday vibe
She gets it. Our cherished rescue mutt happily appreciates the holiday season with my dear wife Karen and I in our living room.]
