Honey, would you call the color of the sky right now “Marmalade”?
Last Saturday night, The Wife and I attended another concert by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. This one, however, did not feature classical music; we actually attended a Pops concert. It was called “Classical Mystery Tour”, and it featured the BPO … Continue reading
