  • De-Ice Me [photos 2012]

    My attitude is much better today since I’m comfortably settled in my own favorite chair. I did however wake up very early this morning in Watertown. Our plane arrived last night and sat there through a small snowfall. When I saw it I kept picturing it with “De-Ice Me” written with a finger on the…

  • Terrible Service [photos 2012]

    The events of this afternoon made me really wish I was back in Vietnam. The service over there in general is light years ahead of Watertown NY, at least with the transportation companies.
