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

(19:34 UTC-5)
(+28*F....+20*F w/wind-chill....cloudy....winds from the East at 10 mph)
(Now Playing: J.S Bach...."Magnificat" (link)) 
   According to the forecast it will start raining soon after mid-night and continue in to the early afternoon....temperatures in the mid to high 30's F....then turning colder and changing to snow for a few hours....although the weekend looks good....mid 20's F....
   I had planned to walk today....Ollie's and Dollar General....really did need to much if any thing....more an excuse to walk than the need of anything special....but I try to get to Ollie's at least once a week....being a "bargain" outlet....you have no idea what you might find....and if it strikes your fancy....buy it....because you could go back the next day....and it would be gone forever....did pick up a few things....another glass bowl for cooking in the microwave....and a grinder of nutmeg....and then off to Dollar General....now in the summer time I always plan to stop at Dollar General last....and buy among other items a small cup of ice cream....but despite the winter weather bought a cup....and some icy hot rub for my back....a small bag of candy....and some mechanical pencils....and the usual conversation with the manager....a nice lady and a good sport....and the obligatory teasing of the check out clerk....all-in good fun....and they give it right back to  me....also have the same relationship with the staff at Aldi....and because my diet is centered around fresh fruit and veg....and I have limited storage....and live alone....I'm in Aldi at 2 or 3 times a week....but it's a quick trip....just across the  street....
