Augie Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) My sister just got back from her HS reunion. Sent me photos all weekend, had a great time! Had beautiful weather for a day out on a boat, hit all the great restaurants. We all get back periodically and always enjoy the trips. .

YoloinOhio Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Will be there next month. Staying downtown. I’m going to starve myself until I go so I can eat everything I see. Ohio just doesn’t have the same foods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were there 2 weeks ago. Crossed at Lewiston/Queenston. Canada Customs had 2 lanes open, @10AM?? Looking in the mirror saw that the USA wait seemed as bad! Came back 2-3 hours later. Used the Rainbow Bridge. No truck traffic. US Customs had easily 8-10 inspection lanes open, piece of cake! We intentionally stayed away from the Peace Bridge. .

Bucket list for the 5 days I’m there includes Thin Man Brewery (haven’t been there yet), Teds hot dogs, Charlie the butcher, Lanova pizza and wings on W. Ferry, brunch at Toutant, Paula’s Donuts and Bar Bill. I’ll be rolling myself back to Ohio but YOLO amirite. Plenty of time to work out when I return.

The Buffalo zoo is awesome and should be open in late September If you're near the mall you have 3-4 options for wings.... Duff's (dick road) Deniros Pizza (George urban), Johnnie's Pizza (union road) and Gandys pizza (Cleveland) I would go Deniros , Duff's , Gandys then Johnnie's for wings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US Egg Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I always thought the best thing about Buffalo was not having to deal with crowds. It''s gotten a bit worse, but, it still ain't bad at the big events stuff here. Try N.Y.C. Macy's Day Parade, their 4th of July fireworks or the subway to and from Yankee stadium for a Red Sox game. Done 'em all. Wondering if you're going to be able to hold your pee long enough is more common there than here by a long shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife organized a program @ the library just recently: something about mobile escape rooms. Still don't know what they are. Maybe I should be in the "simple things that confuse thread?"
