The other night, The Wife and I enjoyed a too-infrequent opportunity to attend a performance of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. We count going to the BPO as one of our favorite things about living in this region, and it’s a … Continue reading
Back Roads of WNY
I’m pretty sure that I inherited from my father a general sense of antipathy for expressways. When we’d take long roadtrips, when I was a kid, such as going from our home in Allegany, NY to New Jersey (near Philadelphia) … Continue reading
