Life Developments of the Automotive Kind
[A few weeks ago….] ME: Hi, I was wondering if you can get my 2012 Kia Soul in for service? It needs an oil change and the ‘Check Engine’ light just came on. MY MECHANIC: Sure, I can get ‘er in tomorrow! … Continue reading
Four days in the Finger Lakes
I’ve been in love with New York’s Finger Lakes region pretty much ever since we moved to New York in 1981. My first sight of any of those lakes came that first summer. We moved here in June, I think–pretty … Continue reading
A Quiz!!!

Home again, home again….
And…we’re back! But…where were we? It was the weekend for our annual WinterHounds event, which is a meet-up for greyhound owners that takes place twice a year in the Finger Lakes. Lots of wineries participate, offering discounted tastings and/or purchases … Continue reading
Brrrr!!!
It’s cold outside! This time of the year in The 716, we’re not usually suffering the kind of cold the Upper Midwest tends to get for weeks (or months) at a time, but we do get bursts of some seriously … Continue reading




Twenty years a blogger….
Last week a local person graciously cited me as a creative person worth following online, which was a compliment I greatly appreciated! But what really took me back was the description: Three local blogs:@Jaquandor has been posting content on the … Continue reading →
