Jill & Shane let me have this awesome globe lamp. We've been cleaning out and organizing the office and lots of random things are being tossed or given away. I also scored a four-drawer vertical fling cabinet.

Nisha & Blu, a bluetick coonhound, hanging out. (A's dog Whitey is a treeing Walker coonhound.)

Classic chair in the 2nd floor women's room at DNIPRO.

I took a cruise on the Miss Buffalo Sunday. I hadn't seen the West Ferry drawbridge up before.

Cruise included Stripteasers :-)

10-person double qwirkle!

Stuff

Nineteen Buffalo Queer Women went to Spicy Thai last night. I had an excellent basil eggplant, Thai spicy. Nice place and they were very gracious about having 75 percent of their seating taken up. I didn't get the impression that Thursday nights are hoppin'.

Nisha is visiting and loves all the attention at Taza. Fausto & Paula let her sit on their laps.

My truck broke down on Edward between Franklin & Delaware on Wednesday. The Midas on Niagara Street came and towed me and then the mechanics huddled around like it was the coolest new mystery. Ignition coil failed.

Tioga river sluice wash out

A took this picture yesterday of a spot on near the headwaters of the Tioga by County Bridge.

Approximately where the lat-long marker is:

It's DCNR land so it's unlikely that the sluice will be replaced. The other end of the path also has sluices washed out. We get back there with A's 4wd F150 but it's rough.

I have a neat video of a road and its sluice pipe being washed way in Broome County, NY, but it looks like it's in icky FB format and I can't share outside. My favorite amusement park, Knoebel's Grove in Elysburg, PA, has been hit pretty hard but they've always bounced back from flooding. You can see their pix here

More random silly shots

Carcassonne with the piggies & hydrants expansion; Ecoey; the wine that Uncle Dudley keeps in her fridge is not nearly the quality of wine I've been drinking lately, including some excellent homemade zinfandel and muscata (maybe).
