“Hey, why no posting for three days?!”
Well, let Inigo tell the tale here: Yeeeeeeah. That was…a weekend. Friday was busy wrapping up stuff at work so I could enjoy a three-day weekend. Saturday we went to the Sterling Renaissance Festival, where much fun was had and … Continue reading
Doggos: an update
Hobbes (the greyhound) and Carla (the pittie) are both doing fine! Carla has been struggling with some arthritis in her joints, but last week she went to the vet for an injection of fluid into one of her troublesome joints, … Continue reading

“The Force will be with you. Always.” (a repost)
Today marks the 47th anniversary of the release of George Lucas’s “little space movie”, which wasn’t even 20th Century Fox’s projected “Big Movie” of that year. Little did the world know what was about to happen…and certainly a five-year-old kid … Continue reading

A Belated Birthday Wish to The Lydster
The Lydster, if I am reading things correctly, is 20 now. “Who?!” you may ask. A reasonable question, so I shall provide a reasonable answer: The Lydster is Roger Owen Green’s daughter Lydia. Roger has been chronicling her growth and … Continue reading
Two scenes from a morning
As much as I’m not a fan of being up before dawn all the time, I have to admit that the pre-dawn hours have a certain beauty. Two quick shots, taking during my morning commute, before the sun has risen: … Continue reading
The trains don’t run anymore….
Photos from a short walk at the Orchard Park Railroad Depot yesterday. The Depot, you may remember, has been lovingly restored after years of neglect after the trains stopped running, and the tracks are now a rail trail. These weren’t … Continue reading
Sunday Thievery
I haven’t done one of these quiz-things in a while, so why not? Roger did this one, and now I’m going to appropriate it. (The quiz is from a blog called Sunday Stealing, so the fact that I’m doing this … Continue reading
