There's just something comforting about old, worn down, delapitated buildings that give Buffalo that industrial elegance.<BR/><BR/>I am anxious to see, however, if I really do miss the snow this year. We'll have to wait and see I guess.Derek Bigelowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920455592403013179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24381052.post-1159128836337009972006-09-24T15:13:00.000-05:002006-09-24T15:13:00.000-05:00Ok, Rufbo?

Second, Buffalo may not be beautiful, but Niagara Falls is!!! That is just as close to us. Buffalo actually receives ALOT less snow than our area (1 hour south). And if you traveled to "ski country" on a mid winters day, you would be in aw of the beautiful scenery casted by the freshly fallen snow atop the trees and hilltops! (how hallmark was that?). Of course unless you get stuck in one of the Buffalo Blizzards, you would enjoy the scenes!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24381052.post-1157683056959408012006-09-07T21:37:00.000-05:002006-09-07T21:37:00.000-05:00I believe the shorthand for "from NY but not NYC" ...I believe the shorthand for "from NY but not NYC" is "I'm from upstate NY".<BR/><BR/>Buffalo pretty?

Rob pics on the way that I say Bagel, Tiger, etc. A former employer once told me that he didn't like my "strong WNY accent". Robs sister in law from Lousianna was just in AW everytime I spoke because she said that my accent is so much stronger than everyone elses. And as mom and dad said, Ya'll, ya reckon, fixin, etc. Are they really words?? Hang in there, most people really like accents and just wonder where they are from. They probably don't mean to be annoying.
