THANKS COFFEE ART PROJECT!
Photo Credit: Matt Cauley (https://www.facebook.com/mattcauleyartist)
Another great year at the Coffee Art Project (http://www.coffeeartproject.com/) supporting Project Waterfall (http://www.projectwaterfall.org/) at the New York Coffee Festival (https://www.newyorkcoffeefestival.com/). I'm humbled to be included again with so many talented artist helping such a wonderful cause. And I'm very excited my painting will have a new home with a company in London, United Kingdom. Thanks to the Coffee Art Project team, especially Laura Newby and Natasha Raspudic, for all your help in making this event such a success. Looking forward to doing it all again next year.

HAPPY SCOUT-IVERSARY!
Can't believe we've had Scout for two years already. And how cold it's getting already too. We're all wearing our coats at Corbett's Glen.
No Salmon?!?!

If Winter Wasn't Blogged About, Would It Exist?
It's been forever since I've updated anyone on what we've been doing. Not much. Trying not to freeze to death during the coldest winter ever...
But, here's some highlights of the last few months:
Have you ever wondered where Satan washed himself off? At the Devil's Bathtub in Mendon Ponds Park of course.
Honeoye Creek in Honeoye Falls, NY. Decided to check it out since I've never been there before. It's a nice little village.
An old mill or something on the bank of Honeoye Creek
This wheelchair is on the move. Saw this at the post office. Way more active looking than the old logo.
Scout has visitation rights and the Wintertime Correctional Facility.
Rachel and Scout playing Minecraft.
I know you think you're human, but get out of my spot.
Scout learning that snowmen are nothing to be afraid of.
This is about the peak snow cover at Irondequoit Creek. Most snow Rochester has had since 1999. Coldest month ever recorded. Under all that snow and ice are a lot of rapids...
And the reeds where all the deer hide in Linear Park.
That about covers winter 2014-15...

CELEBRATIONS!
It's been a while since I've posted a "regular blog." I've been pretty busy lately. But, I've finished a bunch of work and wanted to show I'm doing more than painting like a maniac...
Megan brought me out to Sticky Lips BBQ (http://stickylipsbbq.com/stickylips/) for my birthday dinner. The ribs and sides were excellent. I think the best I've had it town. But Megan's brisket was beyond amazing and was three days worth of meals!
Megan's sampler platter.
Man, I want to eat this again. This place always has a line (except when your birthday falls on a Monday that is also a holiday). No wonder it took about four years to get in.
I'm not the only artist in the family. This is a portrait my niece did of herself, the twins, and the dog Bella. I'm still trying to convince Rachel that I should represent her...
And if you didn't already know, I have a new niece and nephew: Alyssa and Nolan. They are super tiny and about a month old now.
And we've had Scout for one year now. Here she is with Megan last year...
And here's the goofy mutt now.
A non-cooperating puppy from a year ago...
And the uncooperative puppy of now.
Scout and I last year...
And the big moose of today.
Megan and Scout relaxing by Irondequoit Creek
Hiking through the fall foliage in Corbett's Glen.
We were too late (again) to see the salmon running the creek. But, it's always a nice quick hike near our house.
That's it for now. Better get back to work...

I < 3 NY - Part Four - Taughannock Falls in Ithaca
Megan and I at Taughannock Falls State Park.
More hiking and more gorges!
Taughannock Creek
An old railroad bridge that we'll be crossing that's way the hell up above the gorge.
Another waterfall
View of the Taughannock Creek gorge
Taughannock Falls
The 215 foot drop is 33 feet higher than Niagara Falls
Unfortunately, it started to rain and Megan hurt her knee. Scout was pretty tired. So, we cut out most of the hiking we planned to do. But, as I said about Lucifer Falls, it's a good excuse to come back.
Waves of rain crashing against the woods. Cayuga Lake in the distance.
INDIAN VILLAGES
Occupied by Taughannocks situated north and south of stream burial ground on bluff west of John Jones home site Indians named Lake-Guenguch
First white settlement 1794 by two Goodwin Brothers
That's it for this trip. All you really need to know though is:
ITHACA IS GORGES!
Part One: Albany
Part Two: Buttermilk Falls In Ithaca
Part Three: Lucifer Falls In Ithaca
