Encore plus de neige
For some reason Mother Nature will not release her snowy grasp on much of our country this year. There has been talk of an impending storm for days and last night it was upgraded to a blizzard. Today the Governor declared Western NY under a state of emergency. So far we have well over aContinue reading “Encore plus de neige”
Things that can be carried on a bike (#573), the view from my handlebars, and a brief comment…
On the bike…groceries, sundries, dog food, a gym bag, and an order of moo shoo vegetables. So the weather was just beautiful today and this evening…40F which feels like a heat wave after the past few months. And I was particularly enjoying this sunset as I rode (and pulled of to the side of theContinue reading “Things that can be carried on a bike (#573), the view from my handlebars, and a brief comment…”

Things that can be carried on a bike (#470), and on another really cold and snowy evening…
A gym bag containing wet clothes, and $46 worth of groceries. Urban Simplicity.

And on a really cold and blustery day…
So I only have a very short “commute” to work every day (today, though, was a split shift so I had to commute four times). And I normally don’t complain about this; I actually like the winter. But geeze o’ man… It. Was. Cold. Today. Really cold. The bottom photo is a screen shot fromContinue reading “And on a really cold and blustery day…”

Things that can be carried on a bike (#566), and a brief comment…
On the bike…a case of red wine and a gym bag. A brief dialogue… The Sales Person at the liquor store: Would you like me to carry the case of wine out to your car? Me: No, but you can carry it to my bike. Sales Person: [blank stare] Me: But no seriously I canContinue reading “Things that can be carried on a bike (#566), and a brief comment…”

The Good Neighbor…
So here’s a picture of my bike parked in front of Cafe 59 on Allen Street in the neighborhood in which I live in Buffalo. No big deal, right? Well it is, and this photo speaks volumes. Not only does the owner shovel both of his sidewalks (it’s on a corner) he also shovels theContinue reading “The Good Neighbor…”

Things That can be Carried on a Bike (#559)
Just a few groceries on a really bitterly cold and snowy day. Urban Simplicity.
Yup…it is cold and snowy (and a few things I saw on my walk)
The above temperature is what we woke up to here in WNY. I know it is not nearly as cold as the Mid-West, but geeze ‘o man it is cold. I went out in it only briefly today (to split some logs for the wood-burning stove and then to the store fore a bottle ofContinue reading “Yup…it is cold and snowy (and a few things I saw on my walk)”
