COMING UP: Thursday April 28, 2005

I plan on seeing the flamenco dancer & Mir Ali's group this Thursday at Nietzche's promptly at 8pm. Although it's $8 the ambience and intimacy of an Allentown bar has a lot of appeal. This way I can flirt & knock a few back with them after the show as well. WARNING: do NOT bring a date that you are "on the fence" about. Flamenco gyrations and Gypsy rhythms have never been considered a very effective form of birth control- if ya know what I mean!

See ya there! Cow-Girl


Gotta love Niagara Square!

Here is a pretty cool photo of a candle light vigil in downtown Buffalo commemorating 9/11. I'll tell you, when it comes to a city with heart, you won't find another one out there that can hold a candle to Buffalo. This vigil was held in Niagara Square; photo taken atop Buffalo's own City Hall. As a matter of fact, if you have never been to the observation deck at the top of City Hall, it really is worth a visit. And bring a camera.

Taken on a night with a beautiful crescent moon. Snapped it while grilling in a backyard (just off Elmwood Avenue.)

Jamie Arnold & Janet Fowler make the most of a Garden Walk grant. This little garden makes a nice addition to the new playground recently built next to Lafayette Presbyterian Church. Keep posted for another exciting addition to that corner in the next issue of Buffalo Rising!

Morning Glory Cafe, one of the West Side's best eateries just set up a great little patio. Located next to D'Youville College on Porter Ave., this joint is serving up some really great eats... outdoors.

If you haven't seen it yet, then now is the time. Frank Lloyd Wright's Blue Sky Mausoleum is a sight to behold. Located on a rise between two ponds in Buffalo's 269 acre Forest Lawn Cemetary, this is truly a sanctuary within the the city. Built just recently, the mausoleum is another notch in Buffalo's architecture portfolio.

In the May issue of Buffalo Rising, we will give you a guided tour of one of Buffalo's newest (and tallest) remodeled digs. The apartments come replete with communal bike storage compartments in the hallways. The only catch? They are being marketed to people making between $10 and $12 an hour!

Nestled in a quiet space near The Historical Society lies Buffalo's very own Japanese Gardens . Situated on Mirror Lake, the garden was conceived in 1970, and was completed in 1974. Make it a point to visit this beautiful oasis this summer.
