Got home mid-afternoon Saturday.  Check-out time wasn’t until 11 a.m. so I made sure I gave the city of Syracuse plenty of time to clear the streets.  I cleaned the several inches of snow off the car, had a nice … Continue reading →

The breakfast buffet this morning at the Jacksonville SureStay by Best Western.  There was both hot and cold food, not the usual sweet buns, several kinds of juice, and several flavours of yogurt.  What a great start to a day. … Continue reading →

Posted on January 31, 2020 by mysm2000
