I Heart New York




Aww shucks. 12 beautiful days in Buffalo. We spent our time with our friends and families, (once again the Schlaffs and Johnsons were together for another unforgettable Schlonson experience). We gathered from all the corners of the country, we cooked, we hiked in the Niagara River Gorge, we went to Jamestown, we played lots of music, we spoiled each other, we learned how to recover a hard drive, we took care of Trevor the Wonderdog, we read books, we crocheted, we ached with laughter, we smelled the earthy aroma of Norm's woodworking studio, we watched Rudolph with three little boys in pajamas awaiting Santa, we ate ice cream for breakfast for our first snowfall this year (which certainly wasn't Buffalo's first), we held Pete & Alie's new baby, we painted ornaments, we danced to Babik in a crowded bar, we stayed up until 4 in the morning, we ate chicken wings, we threw parties, we went to other peoples parties, we were caroled to, we cheered for the Sabres, we were thankful, we saw Fred Slacks play, we made cookies, we hopped around waterfalls at Chestnut Ridge, we told stories, we were cold, we were cozy, we felt so lucky. Thanks everybody! We miss you!
