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
Domestic Bliss
In which I attempt to share a video I took with my phone: Carla and Remy, deciding to battle for supremacy of…The Wife’s lap. Yup, this is what goes on here sometimes. (No one was hurt…and eventually Remy left and … Continue reading

“I cannot help but be touched. I, of course, remember you.”–Khan Noonian Singh, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan I’m thinking of that quote because after several weeks of a very mild start to our winter, this week winter decided to … Continue reading
Reading by Candlelight

OK, let’s talk 2024!
NOTE: I’ve had this post in drafts since last Tuesday, when 2024 was still going OK. Then, things started going awry very quickly, hence the lack of posting much since then. I’m not going to write just yet about what’s going … Continue reading
