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

[Now Playing on MadTrollie_Hornblower_{The Examination For Lieutenant}_]....
   It rained most of the morning hours into the early afternoon..once the rain was over I decided to walk to Aldi's and pickup a few things..nothing out of the ordinary..but the place has been well picked over..I have a casual relationship with many of the staff and they looked quite tired..they've apparently been working their butts off trying to keep up with the crowd of shoppers..
   Housekeeping was in today..husband and wife team..he also takes care of all  the shoveling and snow-blowing..and is now sporting a beard..looks go on him..and I told him so..he replied that is wasn't as good as my..of course he's only had one a couple of weeks and I've had either a goatee or a full beard for the better part of 20 years..
   Other than the walk and the visit by housekeeping I have spent a quiet day..on-line..save for a short conversation with one of the other residents..with everyone staying close to home with the fear of the Corona virus..the load on "The Farthest Side" has been heavy but most of the mods have also spent the day on-line so it's been shared among many hands and hasn't consumed an inordinate amount of time..
   Still have things to attend to and I'm given some though to throwing together something for an evening meal..don't have a firm idea of what to have..guess I need to check the pantry..so will say "fare thee well" and goodnight..
