Watertown, NY, USA . "Public Square" (vintage, date unknown) but the monument is honoring veterans of the American Civil War so the date of the image is late 1800s

mostly classical and ...well nothing to drink right now but will probably get a cup of tea at some point....it's 10 of 9 and i've been home maybe a half hour left at 2:30 for the wedding.........and reception afterwards....i think i'd be less tired if i went 15 rounds with mike tyson......first of all the church we were in has pews, which i believe to be CSO......that's chair shaped objects....they appear to be built for sitting....but it is only an appearance...in truth i believe they are hold overs from the spanish inquisition and nobody expects the spanish inquisition (sorry)........why do ministers at weddings feel compelled to speak for 25 minutes on the meaning of marriage....hand the couple a copy of sex for dumbies and be done with it......the only good thing about the entire service was that the church has a wonderful pipe organ and the organists is very good....in fact it's the fellow that plays with the choral society i sing with so that was at least enjoyable.....if you discount the d*mn pews.......then the reception started ( or at least in theory started at 4:30) a sit down affair at the local ramada.....actually the food was quite decent but i don't think we started eating much before 6 and it was drawn out for ever......i'm just glad it's the last niece of marriageable age and will get a restbit from family weddings for a few years anyhow........oh and the ramada dining room also has CSO's........why can't places buy proper chairs......
