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

   Actually slept quite well last night and except for 2 short walks by way the halls to the lobby..first for breakfast items and later for  the afternoon cup of coffee have spent the day in my rooms..need to walk either tomorrow or Wednesday to Aldi and then later in the week to Price Chopper among other things I need to get my prescription filled for one of my meds..although the temperatures tomorrow will be in the 30s..it's predicted to be partly cloudy and winds around 10 mph..so will at least consider the walk to Aldi tomorrow..and a stop on the way back to the ATM for some "walking around money" and then to Price Chopper before weeks end..../....Along with the usually online gaming which went a lot better today than yesterday have spent time creating a play list of some of my favorite books in audio-book format..among others I've found most of the "Hornblower" series.."The Hunt for Red October".."The Andromeda Strain" & "Brave New World"..so anticipate many hours of enjoyment..../....But with the continuing absence of the poker & blackjack live games I play have had to extra time today..spent some watching "Pawn Stars" and "Star Wars VI"..I get a kick out of some of the sellers on "Pawn Stars"..the ones who think that every weird item is worth  a fortune..or the ones who expect that they should get "list price"..dang..a Pawn shop is not a collector..they only by to re-sell and must make a profit..I enjoy the show firstly because you get to see items you would probably never see in your routine life..and secondly I love a good haggle and am myself quite adapt at that art form..the thing about a good haggle as a buyer is you know the seller is still making money and know that he knows that you know he's still making money..but you do it for the pure fun a haggle can be..../....want to watch the end of the Star Wars flick and BBC America is playing "Law  & Order" re-runs later..and except for a few bonus drops on "Video Poker Live" my online day is done just as soon as I say..nite all..../....
