Pedalin’

The world gets a little more tangible with handlebars in place of a steering wheel. I’m a casual rider (jeans allowed as those tight lycra outfits ain’t for this guy)

Go ride, you might see something

Hello, Sunshine

When the world needs to calm down, perhaps more accurately, when I need the world to calm down, a retreat to Buffalo’s waterfront doesn’t disappoint.

It somehow has the ability to calm an overly busy mental remote control.

Everything the light touches

The sunlight on Lake Erie can do some amazing things. Occasionally I try to capture the picture nature paints, but nature has a few more pixels at its disposal. But still worth a shot, right?

The light itself can really put on a show.

Away from my desk

Well, I was during part two of a video shoot for my day job. So, while the pro lined up his perfect hd images of some of my coworkers, I tried my hand too:

It is indeed a wild group.

Leaf Crunchin’

Sometimes you just got to play, disconnect and wander. Some of the most I’ve had lately was an awesome stroll through a largely unspoiled park nestled in the midst of Cheekatowaga.

Fun day in air that could definitely be described as fresh. Cold and rain was threatened but I couldn’t have cared less. There was a lot to see and listen to and my traveling partner and I took our own sweet time. It was pretty jarring to see the occasional goof with headphones on who was there for the sake of leaving as soon as possible.

I mean, got to enjoy the leaf crunch or the sound your shoe makes when yhe mud relents and lets you take it back.

Ready to go again.

Beautiful Day

I missed both “Breaking Bad” and the Bills game for a real good reason. I got outside. At this risk of this seemingly appearing to be a post featuring vacation shots, shaddup and behold the wonder of nature. You, you’re not beholding…..behold, dammit. (Okay, missed the Simpsons too).

This is the opening you see once you enter Watkins Glen State Park from the lot.

Nice to unplug for a bit, wander, and wonder

Snow Thrills

All the folks griping for snow put this part of one of my favorite episodes of Mystery Science Theater 300o in my mind.

Do Enjoy

And you’re full of skit

Cameras on a Falcon?

This is cool, somehow naturalists got a camera on a peregrine falcon and a goshawk. That must have been a step by itself, but the resulting video will make you say clever things like “gosh.” Watch.
