Clams at Dug's DiveCategory: food
It was well worth the walk. P.S. the diner in the last journal was an abandoned gas station and not Dug's Dive.

Holy crap though, using their online mercury calculator :::link::: , no matter how I spin it I go way over each week - even if I eat only the lowest ones. Maybe I should go get a mercury test.

Behind the new, former casinoCategory: buffalo
We walked from out house at Linwood and North to Dug's Dive on the Lake. I really walk anywhere for clams. These pictures are from right behind what was to be the new casino.
I had never really walked this way before but its pretty doable. We had to go on down to Ohio st to go over the Buffalo river. I wish they had a bridge at Michigan St.
The yummy lucky charms smell from the General Mills factory is so overwhelming at this close proximity. You could actually taste it in the air.

In Terms of the store I'm not sure.... I know that I have seen some of the shirts at festivals , now that I think about it I don't think they had that shirt at the fair, I saw the Bret Hull is a cheater, I thought they did have that shirt when they where at Allentown West. To be honest it is tough to keep the Buffalo shirt places stright with there being a few of them.......

They are all sold out of that shirt. I asked the last time I was there. Then again that was when the plae was where the oil an vinegar store is now. I wonder if the t-shirt place moved somewhere else or if it closed?

I kinda miss sitting at the counter thing, sitting at the bar on a stool isn't the same, two places that come to mind quickly are Your Host and Wolworth's. I wasn't around when there where sit ins there but when I was a kid I did eat at one at least once (Grant St. Location I think) and yes you could buy birds and fish in there (no where near the food), think I also ate at the one downtown.
@ (e:Tinypliny) one of the T-shirt companies that make Buffalo shirts does have a shirt that says something along the lines of "my city smells like Cherios" ........

It's old style - the grill is farther down with the silver hood. You can see the handle of the french fry basket.

I dig it when everything smells like cheerios at random times! Can people go on a GE mills tour to see the production process? I would really like to do that. Any idea whom I can contact to ask about this? Has anyone ever heard of GE Mills tours?
And why abandon such a cool kitchen - it was in a gas station??! That is odd. Usually gas stations have uncool crammed corner-snack shops.

Is this from a year ago?Category: signs
Or is someone just really bad with dates. There is no Friday, August 21, right?

year ago I think because I remember hearing about it..... That it was going to happen.......

(e:MrMike) is correct. They where having some other stuff down there as well. Sometime in Sept they will be doing this again with the Sabres Puck Drop event...
I think the Sabres were sponsoring a street hockey tourney. The hay divides the courts, catches the wayward shots and acts as a bumper
They were preparing for a flood?
