The ice cameth
My cold stroll managed to cross lots of snow to the edge of the Onondaga Lake Marina, where the warning signs were true. The lake by the shore has indeed frozen over thanks to all this below-zero weather we’ve had.
My cold stroll managed to cross lots of snow to the edge of the Onondaga Lake Marina, where the warning signs were true. The lake by the shore has indeed frozen over thanks to all this below-zero weather we’ve had.
I found a few moments and the courage to fight the cold to check out how things are going the couple blocks toward Onondaga Lake. The plows reach the edge, yes.
Cherished rescue mutt Ellie B doesn’t hesitate going right to the edge as soon as I let her out upon my return home from work. She knows it’s cold but she travel around to find her best spot for the moment she must.
All it took was a quick look out the back door to know that the work day’s worth of cold surely had made its mark on the whole darn backyard. Whatever had gathered on the pool cover, frozen. Snow fallen on the grass, frozen. My fingers on the screen of my iPhone 8, frozen. Finally…

Things were looking pretty as Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle raced to do her morning thing off the back porch of the Little Bitty my dear wife Karen and I share in the Syracuse city neighborhood of Syracuse. The sun was inviting. Postcard alluring, perhaps. Vivid skies invited birds to the treetops off in the…
I’ve yet to venture outside this Sunday morning, choosing instead to work on my blogs. Here’s why. At 10:25 a.m., the crawl on “CBS Sunday Morning” proclaimed the temperature in Syracuse, N.Y., to be -4 F. My peering out the side at 8 allowed me the vision of Good Neighbor Tim and Wonderful Wife Lorraine…
I had the opportunity to head the Chevy Cruze north Tuesday morning for a 70-mile drive up Interstate 81 to the city of Watertown. It was a rather pleasant 20 degrees F when I pulled out of the driveway of the beloved Little Bitty my dear wife Karen and I share in the Syracuse city…
