It is bitter today and tonight the snow will start. This first snow shouldn't be significant: just a few inches. Then the heavy storm comes on Saturday and Sunday. With falling temperatures in the single digits and big time winds gusting to 50 or 60 mph it will be difficult for my gang and the cr

I have been without a lawn guy for several months now. The guy I had, just fell off the face of the earth and didn't return calls. I did two more large bags of leaves this morning which is all I will do this year. I was concerned about the potential for a major snow event this weekend so I called

I don't fly south for the winter. I try and spend my time in and around Sheila's house because there is food and ample areas to hide. Many of us spend the evenings under her deck. She has grates but we can fly through or hop our way in. When the sun is out we generally look for dinner. Some days

Lately, for whatever reason, I have been thinking a lot about things I experienced in my childhood. I grew up in Philadelphia and lived in a suburban neighborhood of row homes. My elementary school was within walking distance which was good because there were no school buses. Everyday I walked to

Yesterday was another bitter cold day. It was hard to be outside long without having to grab your breath. Last night was an evening of contrasting and yet equally stunning skies. Here are two views of the same area that I was able to shot. I loved the blue and orange in the first one and the viol

It isn't always about the amount of business you have, it is really, in my view, about the quality of that business. I remember knowing colleagues who had dozens of listings but none ever sold. I somehow knew even in the beginning of my career, that the only thing that really mattered was the num

Sometimes the sky makes me think that anything is possible. There are no limits in the breath and variety of skies observed around the world and even in my little back yard. It has been really bitter cold here and yet the sky was warm and welcoming last night. Have a great day.

I love seeing the birds and critters in my yard and area. Hey I love seeing all kinds of animals anywhere in the world. I have been trying to get a great shot of the many cardinals that live on my property forever. It is -5 below zero with the windchill so I am surely not hanging outside waiting

I live in a wonderful area that is full of so many kind of birds and critters. Some hibernate in the winter like the bears. Others like the foxes build homes and largely stay in them. The birds are plentiful and are here and visible all year long. Yesterday this one was shopping in my yard for food.
