Somebody else took aim

Our bowling league was called off early this year because of the virus crisis. It would have ended this month. I had written this post before the cancellation. I found it interesting to find a photographer using our Thursday Night Men’s League at Bowling Green as her focus. Roland behind the desk told us on…

A walk around the blocks recently revealed the knocked-down house has been reduced to a flat lot. May the progress continue.

Dogs need to feel safe, too

Neighbors in the Village of Liverpool know there have been plenty of dog walkers in these days, too. This would make me wag my tail if I had one.
