Should Levack Keep His Trampoline?

Levack — Sun, 06 May 2012 19:32:54 +0000

When I bought my new house somehow I was lucky enough to also get a trampoline. I never wanted it and tried to get rid of it before Ella saw it with no luck. She LOVED it and her and her cousin Amber (both pictured above) spend a lot of time on it. Drama has found the Levack household now because my homeowners insurance said it has to go.

Sometimes you just have to put the laptop down, turn off the iPhone, and get your butts outside and enjoy the weather. I had to tell myself this recently. So I immediately packed up my laptop and iPhone and took a solo excursion to a local park. I was pleasantly surprised at what I saw (right in Schenectady) and wanted to pass it on to you.

Ever been there? It’s a great little park. Little? Did I say little? It’s actually huuuuuuge! I happened to have some time to kill the other day, and I certainly found the best place to kill it: The Crossings. So with i-Phone in hand, I took some quick shots: The sign itself is picturesque! [...]

Spring is here in the Capital Region. Can you think of a nicer place to be than upstate NY during this time of year? There’s always a ton of things to do around these parts. But I’m going to add one more to your already overloaded plate-the local Locks comprising of the historic Erie Canal [...]

You know the common complaint about watching golf on TV. It’s worse than watching paint dry. Even the Masters, as exciting as it was, I grew a full beard waiting for it to end. Well, take heart, impatient TV watchers. Welcome to Power Play golf! It’s becoming a hit in Ireland and other [...]

A Musical Response To Criticism About Tone Up Sneakers

That Casey Danton! Did you see her scathing criticism about those sneakers that supposedly tone up your glutes? Well, I am the proud owner of a pair, and now she’s going to get a piece of my mind musically–actually this is my very first video blog (and maybe my last!!)I’d blab on here, but I’m [...]

Remember when we were kids? As soon as there was a fresh snowfall, we’d go rummaging through all the closets looking for old hats, scarves, carrots–and then shlepping everything out into the snow to make the next great “sculpture”. You don’t see alot of that now–at least in my travels. But then again, maybe I’m not [...]

What did we do, in a not so distant past, without the technology that we have today? You don’t even have to be that old to remember this. Life without computers (Apple or a PC), email, texting, cell phones, IPads, G.P.S. and the many other technological ways to stay in touch. Imagine not having those [...]

Rogue Bowling League

Richie Phillips — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 18:13:10 +0000

Last night we went bowling with a team called the Rogue Bowling League. These fine folks love to bowl, but none of us could join a traditional league because we just can’t do it every week! So we “seceded from the union ” sort of speak and formed our own league. We have team names [...]
