We went to the broadway market this afternoon. It was lame. Maybe we went at the wrong time but I will surely never go back to find out.

The way there was so pretty. I love traveling down sycamore. It is by far the most scenic view of Buffalo.

@terry says they are developing som enew village here that he read baout on Buffalo rising.

No seriously, it makes me want to do a documentary about the history of advertising signs that rusted out.

While this pretty church is dead, every single other non-burned down, non-boarded up warehouse and crappy house is some other sect of freaky Christianity with blacked out windows.

This is what I expect in a Christmas Market.

Then we got there...

and this is what it was.

Back over to elmwood

We got new glasses today at Elmwood Specs. I had the same prescription. My only problem with the place was that the doctor brought her dog with her. I was very allergic to that kind of poodley dog so it wasn't so horrible but if it had been a cat, I think I might have died.

Why did stache or whoever owns this building paint the half timbering over? It seems really trashy.

I hope elmwood doesn't become sycamore ever.

    i used to work every chirstmas and easter at those two stands you have pictured. god, they worked us to death. 4:30-5:00am until 8pm with not one break in between, not even lunch. they would let us scarf down some bread while standing up and shoo us back to work. i guess 12 year olds are easy to manipulate like that.

    You know, that orange building looks like it could have been a glorious Thai Monastery in its hey days.

    Now we know where that orange door on Stache's came from. The residents of the "monastery" were so impoverished that they had to sell their door.
