Wahoo Conch Fritters, Vermont
Category: food

These conch fritters were very tasty, similar to the ones from Curly's in lackawanna, NY.

Someday I want to try conch without other stuff. I am the conch eating equivalent of someone who thinks they know clams but has only eaten clams casino.

Hey, those Bagia thingies look very much like the fritters!

Camping on our way to the adirondacks
Category: camping

Stayed at a state park along the way to the Adirondacks. The place is called Fillmore. They have an interesting swimming hole from a dammed up spring and nice bathrooms. Can't wait for more rustic conditions.

Did you end up getting one of those cocoon tents that hang in mid air?

Dionysis Festival at Brushwood
Category: brushwood

(e:flacidness) and I headed up to the dionysis festival at brushwood on Friday. It was a fun evening filled with wine and dancing. I never drank so many kinds of wine at once. I would have taken more pics but I had nothing to put my phone in.

It was interesting because almost all of the people were from Buffalo.

I cannot wait to get back to brushwood and dance outside around a warm fire.

918 Main st, Buffalo, NY
Category: architecture

Looks like they are finally cleaning up the collapsing building on main street. Its amazing how long it took them to start working on this. I really thought it was going to collapse into the street. I wonder what will become of the building.

tinypliny - 08/13/12 22:45
this makes it even more scary to walk on that side of the street

I would assume that with the building to left and right it would have to be fixed up cause a lot would be gawd terrible ... One would think with the medical campus in that area they could find some good use for it..

Good to see. It's about time.

Samsung 32Gb class 10 micro ssd - yippie
Category: mobile

I saw a great deal on a 32GB class 10, samsung, micro SD card on new egg in retail packaging. It was around $1/gb which a year ago was unheard of. You can't really buy these things on amazon because there is so many black market scanners so I turned to new egg. Now to back everything up from my old class 4 16gb card.

Altogether the phone has 54gb of space now.

No this is super cheap for a class 10 samsung branded card in retail packaging. They go for about $80 from Samsung direct. Read the reviews of class 6 cards for 14 bucks. I would never trust that. Besides this is a class 10. Right now I would not trust any cheap cards from amazon. The latest scam rage is to take crappy ones, scratch off the label and remarket as brand name.

That does not sound like a discounted price - its probably the real price, given how the same capacity class 6 is going for $14.
