Seabar Lunch
Category: food
The lunches at seabar downtown Buffalo keep getting better. There lunch menu expanded like the dinner menu did. (e:samathon86) and I ended up on the new clubby looking side this time. The ambiance was pretty chic for lunch.

man, I always get a tummy ache when I try miso soup. That and the smoky flavour always seemed a little fishy to me. Turns out that is true. Oh well. Good bye miso soup.
jbeatty - 09/15/10 08:13
The smokey flavor is from the bonito. Which is not vegetarian tiny!!! I went there for lunch on Friday. It was such a great meal. It almost made me miss working there.

I wanted to like Miso soup but I am put off by that smoky flavour it always seem to have.

I would cross the street to be on the same side. haha
heidi - 09/14/10 00:32
Did anyone cross the street to avoid you?
tinypliny - 09/13/10 17:16
Not really. They don't have the sexy ooze that you obviously do.
james - 09/13/10 14:41
The Mormon missionary look is tres chic this season.

Little Rock City
Category: hiking
We went back to little rock city. This time we got totally crazy and were jumping between rocks with 20ft+ drops. At one point we were able to jump between 3 rocks. I wish (e:jacob) could have been there. He would have loved it.

(e:terry) is insane. I will try and climb just about an

Sadly, this time we found a clean cut area

(e:keith) jumping to the second rock. I am so sad that this video is sideways. Someday I should edit and rotate it. I tried to compile ffmpeg to enable the vfilter rotation option but it did not work.



trying to convince Casey to jump.

Real Iron Work on 219 Near Springville
Category: art
I am not sure what the name really is but I thought "Real Iron Work" based on the sign below. I should have snagged the location but I forgot.

On our way back to Little Rock City yesterday we stopped at that iron works gallery on the 219. They have some pretty awesome pieces. I wonder if the Griffis inspired them, or if they are the same people.

I want the tree house so bad. I always wanted a tree house but our yard has no tree house sized tree. I never considered building one.

image

I guess they like turles and tortoises too.

Very cool. I wish my mind worked in such creative ways instead of going about in circles in the muck of the mundane.

My love/hate of scenic boys blog
Category: web
Caution with the link, it contains some non-sexual nudity but also a ton of awesome hiking pics and videos from the west coast more non-nude than nude.

Every once in a while I go back to and check out their latest adventures. They seem to always put mine to shame. Recently, they got back from Burning Man. I am entirely jealous. They remind me of the (e:Terry) and I from our pre-buffalo days but somehow they got a bunch of friends to join them on their adventures. Living on the west coast gives them such a tremendous advantage with adventure options.

That pic is from their adventure in may

It's the green-eyed monster.
libertad - 09/13/10 15:11
