We headed up to silo city last night for the art shows. The art was really good, from photography to installation. They had multiple grain silos open with exhibits in each silo, as well as, music in the middle of the open area between them.

We escaped into the darkness as for a bit and found a silo which had the bottom of the funnel part sawed or rusted off. We put our heads up inside and the sound was incredible. A giant confined space, echo chamber, stories high and probably 40 ft in diameter. With @terry and @enknot singing it was so awesome. Even clapping was awesome.

The only bad part was all of the rust in the air made my eyes and lungs hurt. Especially the first time we were in there and @terry thought it was funny to be smashing on the metal funnel. Every time he did it prices of rust fell from the ceiling.

I had @terry capture the sound on my phone


All in all it was a great time. I wish I could have taken more pics but it was too dark or I was having too much fun most of the time.

I like it all, but lets start with my favorite part.

For dessert we had a ginger creme brule.



They ran out of the prawns @paul #56714 so for dinner, I switched to the beef udon bowl. It was amazing. I also tried the Brussel sprouts on the recommendation of my friend Julie. They were so perfect. I never had brussel sprouts cut up like that before. They were divided up into a plate of perfectly cooked individual leaves.







I was also amazed at the variety of supplies in the bathroom, but why a nail clipper?



My mustache is getting out of control.

I live this time of year when the farmers market is overflowing with variety.

We traveled on down to the Seneca Zoo in Rochester for the day on Friday. The zoo is pretty nice but their giant tortoise had less grazing space that mine which is half the size.

Afterwards we ate at Dinosaur BBQ. We wanted it so bad we endured an hour and a half wait. Luckily we spent most of it in the park. If only the Ho sisters could have been there.

It was an intense week. I feel like I need a vacation to a workplace where there is actual communication happening.

I decided to cut my hair because even just having wet hair in the morning was stressing me out.



@terry got his ring realized so we are one step closer to a wedding.

Very last minute we went to zoar. I swam a bit and then we smashed the hell out of shale rocks by hurling granite ones at them. It was quite satisfying.

So far today I ate three fried eggs, bacon, and a cheeseburger which is a very unusual diet for me. I need to switch up at dinner, not that I am getting fat. I am actually quite trim at 150 right now. I'm the perfect base that if I hit the gym starting soon I will look amazing during the seasons when you wear the most clothes and no one ever sees it, lol.

He finally got the glow in the dark bocce set he always wanted.


We ate so much food. I weighed myself before and after eating - I consumed 5lbs of food 150 to 155lbs. @terry got glow in the dark bocce. I am supposed to go to midnight mass tonight but I am so damn stuffed.

We toured the gaybarhood and ate lots of great food. I cannot believe how expensive drinks are. We could have rented out an entire bar for the price we paid for watered down crappy drinks and accomodations.

Altogether it was fun because we were together, but I have to say, each time I go to Toronto I like it less and less. Its so damn crowded and dirty. The thing that kills me the most is the lack of mobile internet. We probably could have arranged for more fun with an internet connection and working map navigation. I've had a smart phone with a data connection since 2003. You don't realize how dependent you are in things like that until they are gone.

I decided to wax the stache for Toronto. Its hard to find an outfit to match blue shoes. I ended up giving up on the shoes and wore all drab brown and olive with the blue bandana.

Fresh veggies, fruit and rice covered in olive oil and herb salt with tuna. I could eat this for every meal.
