We were up in Buffalo last week for Easter, to visit my Mum and Dad, and Lizzy and Josh. Kathleen and the kids came up for Easter Sunday too. It was a fun trip and a good time. My Mum made a big Easter dinner. We watched some weird TV specials including Peter Cottontail, It’s the Easter Beagle Charlie Brown, and Happy Arbor Day Charlie Brown. Lots of chocolate. My dad really enjoyed it. Charlie is a good chess player. I haven’t played in ages so I’m pretty rusty, but nevertheless he beat me twice. We also played Risk, which was alot of fun. On Dyngus Day, Michelle and I visited the Buffalo Zoo, which was a fun time too. I haven’t been there in years. They really have alot of great animals in a relatively small space. Lions, tigers, rhinos, gorillas, giraffes, lots of birds and reptiles and other creatures, and the largest polar bear I’ve ever seen. That night we all went to play trivia with Lizzy, which was alot of fun too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back home Wednesday night, Michelle and I went to see the Sabres vs. the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. The Sabres are hot this year and going to the playoffs for the first time in many years. The ended up winning 5-3. It was a well-played game on both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been binge-watching 1980’s scifi\/action movies. So far the list includes Big Trouble in Little China, History of the World Part One (I know, it’s a comedy not action\/scifi), Spaceballs, Escape from New York, and first Two Terminator movies. Now I’ve started thinking about it and there’s a ton of fun, cool movies from when I was a teenager that I haven’t seen in many years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The weather had finally turned nice. I’ve been biking five days in a row. This week I’m also getting rolling on a bunch of springtime projects including getting some work done on the mustang, and project dirt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
