NoNoo Ramen BarCategory: food
The other, while on a walk with zooey we came across the sign for a new Ramen Bar on Elmwood. I cannot wait until it opens. It is right over by Bistro Europa aand the new TeeShirt store. I sense two favorite restaurants about to be on the same block.

Is a Ramen Bar where they sell Ramen Noodles or what is it? Or is it like an Asian bar with Bubble Tea and Saki?

Tortoise UndergroundCategory: pets
Tortoise B is a much better digger than Basra. I guess Basra was good when he was younger. Maybe once your shell is big enough you font care anymore.

Maybe he doesn't dig anymore cause he doesn't need to.... Maybe with the escape it feels as if there is nothing coming into the yard that he can't handle or that digging wouldn't be enough protection from like a human as an example...

Or maybe he is just digging better under the hanging Basra threat.

Pedestrian Draw Bridge To Unite Buffalo Inner and Outer HarborCategory: buffalo
I am so tired of having to go all the freaking way around to around Dug's dive to get to the outer harbor. Sure, if you are in a car, the way over the skyway is convenient and quick, but for pedestrians and bicyclists, the path all the way around is long, industrial at best, and grueling. Especially for pedestrians.
It so annoying when you finally arrive at the outer harbor and you can see the inner harbor and downtown buffalo are about 200 ft away but about an hours walk back. I understand that building a chicago street auto bridge would be expensive but why not a tiny pedestrian draw bridge.
After extensive searching I found a place with a similar project in Duisberg, Germany and they did build a pedestrian draw bridge
The sign starts out saying, "When you want to open up a once industrial harbor for the people, you need to build a bridge..." I think that sums up exactly what we need here in the Buffalo harbor. I wonder what it would take to get such a project started.
The sign continues on to say that bridge was the idea of Stuttgart Professor Jörg Schlaich and that he worked with the Duisburger Firm Stahlbau Raulf.
Here are some more pictures from the wikipedia article.




I am also willing to settle for an even less expensive zip line, lol.

Damn, I thought you were writing about something they are really going to make. Now I wish someone high up sees this and picks up a phone, a pen, calls a meeting or something.
