About Me

My photo
My wife Toni and I live in the beautiful Catskill mountains, where we love to spend time with family & friends. I enjoy working in the gardens,reading, hanging out at the lake and enjoying the bounty of our lives. In 2007 I started my own business and named it after our dog Spencer. "Life's been good to me so far"

Now & Then


This is so cool. A photographer superimposed a picture taken in 1953 with a picture in the same spot in 2010.
That's me and my godmother Carole on the day I was baptized 5/9/53.
The apartment building is the one I grew up in, 7111 Palisades Ave.
That's the WOR Radio Tower. At one time it was the eight largest man made structure in the world.
A plane hit the tower in heavy fog on 11/8/56. The top of the tower was destroyed and the tower was eventually taken down. I wrote about this on my blog a couple of months ago.
