September 4, 2010 – Yesterday, I got back from a 30-hour, 1,000+ mile, solo road trip to the Buffalo, NY, area as research for a current book project. However, as always seems to be the case, I stumbled upon way more than was on my list of sites and artifacts to check out. Thought I'd post some of those in-between pics from the trip (saving all the good stuff for the book, of course). Normally, I'd just throw a couple of the images on the
O.T.I.S. Facebook Page or download and forget about them, but not all of you are on Facebook and it would be a shame to let Rick James, attack turkeys, and a giant conglomeration of canoes rot on my hard drive...

A Nancy Rubens art installtion in front of
the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. |

| The abandoned Buffalo State Asylum |

| Hm. Should I? |

One thing I've never gotten used to in the northeast.
All the wild turkeys |

See that blurry bit at the bottom? That's my car window
being suddenly raised when I realized they were coming
straight at me, forcing me (I guess) to dive into my car. |

| Charlotte failed this one. |

| Atomic-powered skull |

The trip was actually like 1,037 miles, but I
grabbed the pic here 'cause my trip odomoter
rolls back to 0 when it gets to four digits. |
I'm simply not going to comment on the Hubba Bubba gum-tape dispenser, trash and what looks to be a PowerAde or GatorAid lid, on your dash panel while traveling at about 70-80 mph.
ReplyDeleteOr just the fact that you have Hubba Bubba tape-gum. You big kid.. LOL
Ha. The toy Buffalo at least makes sense, right?
