Bye-Bye Buffalo...

This morning, we left Western NY State and headed home...confined to 9.5 hours of scenic farmland, toll booths, books on tape (CD's actually), all before merging into the DC metropolitan area's traffic tornado swirling at the peak of rush our...bumper-to-bumper bedlam. Images of our recent touristic arrangements reinforced a thin veneer of patience. Our last day in Toronto and our last two days in Buffalo were a relaxing coda indeed.

The great memories will keep us warm.

I hope you're not "Breaking the Law" when you "Rock and Roll All Nite" and "Smoke on the Water." Just remember to say a lilttle benediction to "St. Anger" as you rock out to Metallica...it will allow you to cut through the "Purple Haze" when you ride the domestic "Crazy Train."
Rock On
