Top of City Hall
Category: buffalo
We took (e:Terry)'s mom. I couldn't stop thinking about the guy that jumped. As we were in the elevator and walking up the stairs, I wondered if he amazed at the reliefs or if he stopped and read any of the signs on his way.

Its sad the state the Statler is in. Its like covering the sidewalk with overhead protection is their total solution to the problem of the buildings concretes decorations falling on people's heads.

He jumped last week and died on the 5th landing. Not as gruesome as the 70s one who landed impaled on the flagpole. :::link:::

Wait, when was this and how on earth can someone jump from there. Its all fenced up. I could barely see beyond the parapet. Was he super tall?

Their lunch food is so good. The pattio in back is open and was packed today. No hornets yet like last year. Apparently, they have a to go bagged lunch deal too and a Game of Thrones themed dinner.

Trip To The Albright Knox Witg Terry's Mom
Category: art
We traveled over to The Albright Knox for First Friday with (e:terry)'s mom.

The Art was great but the letters between Knox and the artist were even better. I love reading old letters. Especially, type written ones in the style of those letters. I wonder why we abandoned the dash, carriage return word split.

This last one you have to see in person. At full height, looking straight at it, it ripples.

That stacked up sculpture up top is SO interesting!
tinypliny - 06/06/14 16:16
I am SO glad you took all the whining into account and are finally making some effort to be interesting. Please don't go back to your old ways soon.

Yours in anticipation,
TP

I am loving the old letters too. So much banter about the weather and travel. We hardly worry about these in our emails these days.

Asparagus Fries and Dinner With The Parents At The Deleware
Category: food

Last night we headed to the Deleware in Kenmore with all three of our parents so they could meet and hang out. The food and atmosphere was great. I would definately go back. I can't believe the only photo I managed to get was the asparagus fries but they were delicious.

During dinner (e:Joe)'s parents brought up joining in on their family trip to province town. I really want to go. How could we turn down a trip to gay, seafood, ocean paradise.

Whose shirt is in the picture? At least do us the favour of id-ing that one anonymous person?

I must say this is so disappointing to your readers. We don't get to eat those fries AND you got no photos of your in-laws. *Tsk Tsk*

Let's hope your better 1/3rd did better for their readership base. Yes, I am totally looking at (e:joe).

Plain Dressed Folk at the Medical Campus
Category: amish

There have been so many Amish people around the medical campus in the past few weeks. Maybe its farm accident time of the year. Maybe I just never noticed them before.

To make it even stranger last night around 11 pm there was a very attractive man in modern clothing holding hands with a girl in a black dress and white bonnet.

I almost said good evening in Pennsylvania Dutch but I couldn't get myself to do it because I wasn't sure between good evening and good night.
