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

*[17:17 UTC-4]* I sit here was I usual do (except for yesterday) freshly showed & meds taken..been a fairly quiet couple days..did walk to Aldi yesterday morning..just the usual fare..but a interesting chat with a fellow shopper who worked for several years as a butcher at the local Sam's Club..and then later in the day to Dollar General..a bottle of tomato juice..a bottle of Gatorade Zero & wanted to get a 2 boxes of round crackers..the small size I have been using for first meal..little tuna..maybe some deviled ham.. maybe a salmon spread..& the large for my now traditional peanut butter & jelly cracker..I alternate between a orange marmalade ..fig..blackberry & cherry preserves..but they aren't carrying the small ones I like any more..pita crackers..nuts..so have decided to use the larger size..went to The Thrift Store to check out a larger plate to accommodate the large size..nothing I liked..also back to Dollar General this afternoon more for a destination to walk to than really looking for anything..left empty-handed..../.... have really enjoyed the cooler weather today & same forecast for tomorrow..I've always enjoyed the cooler weather..I grew up about 20 miles to the east of Buffalo NY..in the lee of Lake Erie..so was used to the "lake effect" snow so moving up here in the lee of Ontario wasn't a big deal..howbeit it is on average a colder winter..up here there are two adages about the seasons..1) we have two seasons..winter & construction..the hotel I live in is usually filled from April to October with construction workers..but the current health issues have as we would have said back in the day "put the kibosh on that"..2) we have three seasons..just was winter..soon will be winter & winter..I've seen measurable snow in mid October & Early May..& a few flakes in June..& one thing I really like about living in a hotel is that it's someone else's job to shovel..blow or plowed that accursed snow..had my fill of it run-ning a shipping & receiving department in a small factory for many years,,but there again save for that I love the area & have no  plans to every move to a warmer climate..../....still a thing or three  to button-up for day..ergo.."nite all"....[17:48 UTC-4]..../....
