What if I’m an amateur?

I already look sharp. My dear wife Karen and terrific daughter Elisabeth do a great job purchasing me great looking shirts, I think as I pass this new-to-me store in Syracuse mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA. My image does include team shirts, I must admit. And I might have thought about the…

If I get in an animal mood

This kind of nature. As I circled the joints in Syracuse mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA with an eye toward what’s landed since my last visit, my iPhone jumped out at Little Ray’s contribution. I did not expect to see a Nature Center vying for my patronage. Ray wanted me to come…

Up in the air about this one

Colorful attraction. On a recent weekday walk around Syracuse shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA, I passed the new-to-me Trampoline Park.

My wife has many hobbies

The new store in nearby mall Destiny USA was calling my dear wife Karen’s name. Yes, of course we’ll take our first trip inside Hobby Lobby. Michael’s, a fantastic store to fuel her passions — and a place I liked to roam the aisles with her — has closed its Destiny USA doors in the…

We did not stop to pontificate

I took this photograph and wrote this post before the virus crisis … My dear wife Karen and I spotted a big-time window display at a visit to Syracuse’s mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA. No in-person visit to The Franciscan Place planned by the main man that I’ve heard.

Landscape always beats profile to me

When I walk past the center atrium of Syracuse mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA, my eyes truly are drawn to the big screen they’ve put up as an attraction. Advertising mission accomplished, money-makers. Yet, oh, my brain. Turn it sideways. Show sports games that are important to the community. What could be.

I could write for this sign company

Spotted by my dear wife Karen and I during a recent trip to Syracuse mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA, an elevator that was not working. And a great way to keep people out of it. Bravo, sign makers.
