So before I get into what I want just wanted to say that the sabres play today at 2pm and that they won on Friday but the Bandits lost in overtime so there season is over. But the sabres got me thinking about traveling and so did a check I got.
I find traveling fun. But what is odd is that I'm not really an adventureous type of person. I'm also a picky eater so like if I went to another country I could never get all the culture I'm also not into dancing so that would be another part I would mis out on. But that being said there are some places in other countries that I would like to visit. We won't let the fact that I don't have a passport stop this little bit of writing. I would love to see those Huge falls that I can't remember the name of I think they might be in Brizil I know they border at least two places and they make Niagara Falls look small. Then some cities I would like to see are London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghi, Seoul, Paris and lots of places in Italy. I'm sure there are lots of places I would like with white sand beaches.
I guess the next list of places would be both in the US and some in Canada. I don't really have any good reasons for most of these places or maybe I do and just don't know them. Cities I would like to visit Boston, Chicago, Montreal, Seattle, San Fransisco , San Diego, Pitsburg (yes they have one of my favorite football teams and I have never been there and can't even spell it, D'oh), Ottawa (Canada), Las Vegas and New York City. I admit i have been close by but never in the city itself. Oh yeah Philly would be cool to visit also. Oh yeah I forgot I would also like to spend more then a day checking out Miami some time also.
One thing that might also be a great time would be going on a Baseball, Hockey, Football or maybe even lacrosse tour. I think Baseball has the most history and the stadiums are the most interesting so that might be fun. What I would do is go to a game in a bunch of different cities and then I could explore the cities also. Of course that starts to get very costly but it would be fun to go to a few of them. Oh that reminds me maybe I could check out Atlanta and Charolete. I have been to NC but never there. I'm not saying that I will ever be able to make it to all these places but I would like to.

Dinning out and picturesCategory: photos
So last night I wound up going to Boomerang it is on Niagara street and Had a Hot Roast Beef sandwich . I should have got a pasta dish instead. Not that the sandwich was bad but I should have said well done as some of it was red. I didn't finish it all not because it wasn't good, cause it was. But something about the texture on the way it was sliced or something bothered me but this happened the last time I had a Roast Beef Sandwich at HSBC Arena. All in all a good time was had. In terms of (e:Jenks) I have been to Astoria before but it was a long time ago so you will have to wait on mike to give a review, but I have heard it is very good. I haven't been to solid grounds in a long time. Ok here are some food pictures.



The other day when I went to get tickets I walked down Elmwood and took a few pictures but not a lot here they are. I forget what store that seat is in but it is pretty interesting.



Before each Bandits game I try to take at least one picture of Buffalo so here are the pre-bandit game pictures.




Two pictures of my Sis's Kitten that I think came out cool. I had to play around with my camera a little bit for them to come out like this and not sure how I did it exactly. In my first attempt you couldn't really see what was out of windows.


One thing that I do hope that the Dinning out for life will do for me is to get me to go out and eat at more places around my house or at least up on Elmwood. There are so many places I have never tried or it has been so long since I've eaten there. Speaking of that I have no idea if I even have any thing for dinner.
The sabres start the series with the rangers to night. I will be watching it at home and not at the party at the plaza but maybe one of the games I should go to it and take some pictures plus it might be a lot of fun. So I have one more picture to post for the Sabres and the sabres fan and the beer fans.

I hope everyone has a great rest of what is left of the week and I gotta go figure out what to eat.

ooh, how is Astoria? I was just at solid grounds the other day, and thought it looked like a place worth checking out. Give us a review!

HeroesCategory: tv
I know I've talked about Heroes before. But it comes back on tonight. I will tape it as I watch 24. I did find out that if you miss and episode you can watch them online. I myself think it is a pretty cool show. I think I may tape the Real Wedding Crashers to and see if it is funny. Oh yeah bye the way work on mondays sucks. It seems no matter how you do things you wind up with down time where there isn't much to do. Then later you get orders and there is a lot to do. Or maybe it is just mondays. Hey you know what happens if everyone had monday off...Then Tuesdays would suck. But TV wise Mondays are a great day.

Bandits AdvanceCategory: lax
I had a good time at the Bandits game today. They started out slow and where quickly down by 4 goals on like only about 5 or 6 shots. But over time they worked back and tied up the game and wound up going ahead of the Minisota Swarm. The Bandits back up goalie did get better as the game went on and the Bandits held the Swarm scoreless in the second half and won with the final score of 14 to 8. On the way home I stopped by New World Records and got a Ticket for Chevelle and finger eleven on May 25th. I have seen Chevelle before and they where pretty good. I had a nice walk back home from there and in one block where Lab Indigo was I believe I saw two Corvettes within the same block. I would have taken a picture to post but I would have been shooting into the sun and with the traffic I didn't think I could get a good shot. One thing I noticed is a lot of dogs where around spot. I also saw a few nice looking ladies out with there dogs. I maybe should have gone to spot a found an ice tea to go but oh well it looked kinda packed. Oh back to the Bandits for a second there next game is Friday night in Rochester. The knighthawks allready beat them twice so it will really be a tough game. I see no way that I can really go but it would be nice to. If the bandits can some how win then I think the championship game would be at home.

Yeah I know what you mean. I know I have seen people and not wanted to yell. Who knows what kind of chaos could have broken out if you yelled that. Lately I have been seeing people around who kinda look like other people I know that is kinda strange. I don't want to approach them and then be wrong. Or worse yet what If I'm right and that don't think it is me.

Saw you from a distance on Elmwood today....tempted to shout out, but I didn't want to intrude on your space. Yelling "Estrip" may have attracted the wrong attention.

So then we kinda live near each other. I also have to explain that the houses are where my sis stys at. I also have to correct one thing I said. I thought I had been to Astoria before but I havn't I was thinking of Ambrosia sorry about that.
o0o, McClellan's is about a block away from me, and those houses out your window look very familiar. Maybe not though since a lot of places look identical.
awww. i love it when people post pics like this. I love your pictures. It makes me miss home, but in a good humble way.
by the way, for my birthday, my mom bought me a new sabres sweatshirt. it's pink. and i love it. thought you would think that was funny.
Some time I'll have to try them out. When I usaly go past them they it is when I'm going to the bank so it isn't part of the plan. I'm very picky food wise. I'm not sure what there hours are but often times I go past it and it is closed. Maybe they only do breakfast on Saturday not sure. Another place I allways forget about is Jimmie Macs or what ever it is called now.
Love the solid grounds.....good food
