Squirrels in our midst


I drove to Olean, New York tonight for a dinner with my wife at the Beef & Barrel Restaraunt in downtown Olean. It’s one of our favorite stop and perhaps the best beef house in all of New York State. After dinner Diane did some shopping while I watched this year’s Jamestown Community College-Olean Lady Jaguars Soccer team take on Hudson Valley Community College. I made it to a number of their games last year. But, enough of the Jaguars and the Beef & Barrel. All over Olean squirrels like the one pictured here dot the streets. Some look like veterans, some like Santa, others are colorful like this one. Every town and city has its signature and these squirrels are Olean’s.
