I thought about going down to the marina today, but decided not to because it was so cloudy the later part of the day.... if only I had. Imagine seeing this sunset on the waters of Lake Erie!



It wasn't all bad watching the sunset near home, at least I got a good shot of the sunsetting reflection when I turned around

...

Today we planned a day at Fantasy Island. I love going because it hasn't changed, and it costs less

I posted pictures in the Photography forum. (click here)

I'll have many more pics that I can hardly wait to turn into photo art....gimme a day or two, but it's been a long day, 6 hours at a theme park is a long day.

It was such a beautiful day in the Buffalo area, somewhat clear, blue, skies (sunburn), a light breeze (sunburn), warmer than normal temps...

Between kids & work & home & nice weather & summer fun & BBQ's & family, I've spent less time around the blogs.

Since my last post, I went back to smoking... I will try again for as long as I find something to help me emotionally. I found it difficult to dealing with stress, which made me depressed.

We the price of gas & the cost of everything else going up, we'll probably "vacation" in our own area. It's actually something we enjoy...

As today ends, I'll have completed my 3rd day of being smoke-free.

Today Mother Nature painted a great sunset in Buffalo...

Today I watched as a couple argued in the street, abusive language and assult for more than 20 minutes, as one kept trying to walk away as the other kept following, swearing insulting remarks and hitting, then punching....

I watched, as with the police (via their street cam less that 20 feet away) I wondered how many cases of "reverse abuse" are ever looked upon as serious.

Of the couple I witnessed, "she" was verbally abusive as well as physical....
