a note on this week’s strips and coincidence…

coincidence snow

frank page, last night Jan. 20, 2013. after a snow shoveling session.

note:  this week’s story revolves around me shoveling snow… a lot of snow.  these strips are typically done a month or more in advance.  the fact that truckload upon truckload of snow was dumped on my area last night adds to the coolness (pun intended) of the snow covered frank photo snapped last night.

of course, i could’ve just let you believe i knocked a weeks worth of strips out after i cleared my driveway… coincidence played in my favor this time… go me!

it’s christmas time in rome, ny…

there is usually snow on the ground in rome, ny this particular time of year.  let me say that again with a bit of an alteration… there is usually A LOT of snow on the ground this time of year.

i can still see the leaves on my front lawn… the leaves that i kept saying to myself, ” why bother raking them up?  the snow will cover them soon.”

obviously, that worked out well.

hope everyone has a great holiday….i’m going to spend some more time looking at leaves outside my window.
