I Love New York Travel

Photo take just easy of Pompey, NY.

When I was a kid, Route 20 was superseded by the Thruway, Interstate 90. Many businesses suffered from the severe lack of traffic after the Thruway’s construction in the 1960s. Route 20 was one of the more dangerous routes to take in the winter. The route loops up and down through some of the most rural and hilliest places in Upstate New York.

Today, there’s a revitalization movement to generate interest in the old route. I always liked Route 20, the scenery is terrific and there are many unusual and interesting things to see along the pike. But in the winter, I take 90.

I was just flipping through the old Flickr photo archives. WOW the kids were young then. It seems only like a few days ago…

…how did they grow up so fast?

Travel by train is so wonderful. *sigh* I wish it wasn’t so expensive!

I recently reinstalled the new theme and had the opportunity to view it on a few various computers. The photo, above, is how I see it. On one the other computers, however, the text was much larger and the navigation bar was two rows long! I wasn’t sure of it was the computer or if the theme is all messed up.

Does this site look OK to you?

It’s not often I lobe for the warm summer days. Summer is perhaps my least-liked season, as I don’t like the humidity and hot temperatures. But today, I am cold and the skies are gloomy and gray. I’m also recovering from a bad bout of blog hack. I’ve been at this computer for a week now, battling the hack. I skipped a week of work to deal with it and now the jobs have piled up. Last thing I want to do is still in the shadows of a cold room and type more. Alack. I have also learned my lesson– I think I need general liability insurance for my websites. I’m looking into purchasing a type of security monitoring/insurance system. The insurance would pay for itself, as I lost a whole week’s income on this blasted hack.

I’ll be taking a little stroll later today, but there may be light rain then. I think that on the next sunny day, I’m going to play hookey and lay in the warm sun.
