Taken by me in 2010 on Canandaigua Lake -- some of the most expensive freshwater lakefront in the US -- about 15 miles from me.
Home (cottage?) of the ex-wife of Danny Wegman, son of the founder of Wegman's grocery chain. Clickee for biggie: I don't know who owns this place: No pix, but also here were the summer lake homes of the CEO of Bausch & Lomb, CEO of the Marriot Corp., and also Danny Wegman's place, which was bigger than the others. His boathouse, as I recall, held at least 6 boats. There's many others that I don't know about or have forgotten. Haven't been on the lake since 2011. |

I moved into a rural, remote part of Southern Maryland in the early '90s.
The only house for several miles back off a country road. Great when you're young, independent and a bit adventurous. Not so great when you get older and need doctors, hospitals and grocery stores nearby. |

But I still heat with wood and coal, which takes labor, some can be strenuous for an old guy. All kinds of outdoor maintenance too. The woods is constantly encroaching on my lawn, it has to be whacked back every couple years or so. Did a little bit with the chainsaw yesterday, although it all lays where it fell for now. I didn't brush hog last year, but will have to do it now. |

A good friend of mine and co-worker for 25 years dropped dead a week ago Sunday chopping wood. He was 6'1, 200 pounds, in excellent shape, and strong as an ox. His nickname was 'The Mule" because when we needed heavy stuff moved, he was the guy. Regular Paul Bunyan. He walked outside the house, had a massive heart attack, and was dead before he even hit the ground. He had just turned 72.
I figured he's live to be 90+....he was in better shape than most 25 year olds. |
