Winter, hovering
Oh, February at Onondaga Lake Park. It can be perfectly peaceful, pre-melt.

So far this snowy January 2018 around A Bitty Better in the Liverpool neighborhood of Galeville, I’ve best been about to keep up with the side yard. So that’s where we’ve been letting Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle go in and out the most to take care of her business. I do not have to…
The whole dang country is cold this week, according to news reports. So I won’t complain about the temperatures or wind chill around A Bitty Better in the Liverpool neighborhood of Galeville. But I will show that even Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle pauses before going out for her second morning trip into her Central…
After careful consideration, my dear wife Karen and I decided to sign a yearly contract with the plowing company that took care of us our first winter at A Bitty Better in the Liverpool neighborhood of Galeville. Soon after, four stakes were in the ground when I arrived home from my job at the library.…
They’re half-healed. They’re not. My fingertips usually give me problems during our cold winters, splitting to reveal raw and bothersome cracks because of repeated use to clear the snow off my dear wife Karen’s Mazda and my Chevy and shovel the driveway of the Little Bitty in the Syracuse city neighborhood of Eastwood.

It was hard to get going Saturday in Syracuse. First off, yes, it had snowed overnight again, I’d discovered when I’d let Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle out off the back porch of the Little Bitty in our city neighborhood of Eastwood. As I looked out the kitchen window before my first morning coffee in…
When the snow builds up to a certain point on the rooftops of Syracuse and the sun does its thing during the winter days as January winds its way toward February and then night falls … It’s icicle season. They can get big and nasty and dangerous. They can do serious damage to your roof…
As the Lake Effect snow fell steadily during a work shift this week, my boss and I talked about our winter driving habits around Syracuse, N.Y. There were no customers at the front end registers at the moment. I told her how I had taken the New York State Thruway entrance nearby the Little Bitty…
Perception is reality, they say. They are right. Dagnabbit. In December, I was lulled into actually believing we might be in for an easy winter here in Syracuse, N.Y. That was way back when it was an average of 10, 15, 20 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than our usual blustery cold in the Northeast of the…
