the heat is on......

Me and the wife went on a wee road trip Tuesday. Last stop was Alto Cinco in Syracuse, a Mexican restaurant (for hipsters? they didn't throw us out, maybe we are hipsters????)
We have superb Mexican here in Ithaca, but the fun thing is, Alto Cinco is also superb, but with an entirely different menu and ingredients, and an espresso bar!
They have a huge mural of fishes made out of bottle caps and beer cans.
Prior to that, as thanks for her help, we had been shopping, and I ended up getting stuff for the wife for Christmas. She deserves it BUT the real purpose of the trip was delivering pots for an exhibit I am participating in at Clayscapes: they are also my clay supplier, of course, and we got a boatload, well, a carload of clay too.








So cold and damp this week...had the heat on a bit Tuesday and today.....

    Your wife looks so good in the pictures. I bet it is fun that she comes with you on some of your jaunts for part business and part adventure.

    I almost turned the heat on yesterday. But, it's back into the 70s here for a few days, so I'll be okay.

    I see Penny is a Facebook addict too. haha

    I have to ask: WHERE IS PENNY'S FACEBOOK PAGE????
    She is so in need of having her own profile, and I believe in these pictures, she's showing she's totally capable of providing frequent updates
