Stay-cation

I love where I live. It is so beautiful, especially in Autumn. (And winter, of course.) I recently had several days off in a row to enjoy it with friends – some who live here, and one who came all the way from Memphis, TN.

Day 1:
We picked her up at the Buffalo Airport on a Tuesday and took Route 219 south so we could stop at the Griffis Sculpture Park in Ashford Hollow, East Otto, NY.  It was an overcast, sirimiri day.  (I just learned that wonderful word.)

After exploring until exhaustion, we set off for home and dinner out at Andriaccio’s – one of the area restaurants participating in the Dine out for Life fundraiser.

I don’t know about the others.  But I know I fell into bed and slept like a baby after that!
