This year we started seeing Baltimore Orioles in our backyard. It’s the first time we’ve seen them. They are beautifully colored with a very distinctive song. We soon learned that Orioles like to visit the hummingbird feeder to partake of the same sugar water that Hummingbirds drink. So I bought a feeder that is specifically [...]
The air that is. My bike ride today was a long one. I rode from my house to Skaneateles, around the Lake and back home. From Skaneateles to almost Borodino, the air was just sweet as could be because of all the Lilacs and other assorted blossoms and flowers (lots of tulips). Another perfect [...]
I could have sworn (whoops, pastor wouldn’t like that) that I heard the weather guy say it was going to rain today. It actually turned out to be beautiful with a mild breeze but some nice breaks of sun on an otherwise semi-cloudyish day. The temperature was just right for biking so after I got [...]
I had some work to do today for a client of mine in Ithaca. The weather was pretty nice so Linda and I decided to spend the day together in Ithaca. She walked the commons and picked up some goodies for an impromptu picnic for later in the afternoon while I was working. I finished [...]
The weather has been just amazing the past week. We’re having an early Spring and it’s been pretty much perfect. Temps have been in the 70’s and one day reached mid 80’s.

For several months now I have been diligently filling our birdseeder almost daily. And a day or two later it will be completely drained. Funny thing is that we never see any birds at our birdfeeder during the day. So the question is, who or what is eating the birdseed? I decided to solve this [...]
Long story short, that’s me with accupuncture needles sticking out of my forehead and ear.
So do you really want to hear the whole story? OK, here goes.
I attended an open house this past weekend for “Healing Point”, an accupuncture clinic in Fayetteville, NY. I wanted to learn more about accupuncture and how it [...]
Dewey Neild is a long-time friend and a well-established photographer in Central New York. For several years he has published a calendar featuring some of the waterfalls of the Finger Lakes. Hot off the presses is a brand new, 2009 version of this calendar and it is truly beautiful. Without a doubt the best calendar [...]
My brother has a HUGE family. 11 children. Now that’s some serious propagation that has gone on in that household. I love all the kids dearly and each child has their own distinct personality. My bro sent me this photo of Marysia and A.J. this morning and it just brought a big ‘ol smile to [...]
I’m kind of lucky to live in a development where the back of our house adjoins to undeveloped land. It’s quite nice to look out the back windows and not have to view other houses, or having to worry about houses ever being there. Because the land is undeveloped, it’s more or less a wildlife [...]
