Tried to go to Pho 99 for dinner last night but it was closed so we went to the Steer. I had never been there for dinner. By the sign on the outside that said, steaks, ribs, fresh seafood and the name Steer, I got the idea that it was a steakhouse.

However, the menu inside has no steak or ribs but instead a bunch of tasty small size tapas style foods. Thats a seriously change.

I mean it tasted delicious and I would totally go back but it was definitely not filling like the steak I wanted ever the whole day of hiking. I had the lamb burger, the calamari in lime chili sauce (amazing) and the fig proscuitto pizza.



Update: They own Dug's Dive and the Lake Effect Diner too Dug's Dive is definitely one of my favorites in town. I heard this year it will be open year round.

I added their current menu to this blog. You can now uploads PDFs to estrip.

The wind blew all the pears down. I am kind of sad because they weren't ripe yet and because they have the stupid blight. Luckily, the blight is only on the skin and the pears will ripen soon enough even off the tree.

I tried to post this earlier but my connection died. Seriously, this ham parfait was so gross.

I really enjoyed the day at Griffis Sculpture Park with (e:matthew), (e:enknot), (e:keithT), (e:terry) and I went out down to the park.

(e:keith) had a hard time getting 3g so he went to the top of the tower


The white flowers are awesome.


Keith looks like he is having fun.


This is matthew from the tower


This statue was gigantic.


The palette hive was awesome. It seems like they nailed it together and then shaved it with a chain saw.


(e:keith) really loves a handful of metal


here is (e:Terry) as a monkey, you should have seen (e:keith)'s reach


(e:Terry) and (e:enknot) in a tree


Here is the KML file to track our path through the woods. I figured it would almost be impossible to find some of the stuff again without it. I forgot to track the part from the parking lot to the cement bags sculpture, the place where I started recording.

I ate so many grapes at the Eastman house. Then we went out for Ethiopean vegan food. Not my favorite but not terrible although I am not a fan of the ace bandage resembling injera bread which is made of formented Teff. What it really needed was like goat or Lamb. I love that my phone thinks Lamb needs to be capitalized. I concur.
