Whirlwind expressed this sentiment: I love trees, they're my heros! I thought that was a nice way to greet a new state :-).
Pennsylvania was short lived and we soon, FINALLY, crossed over into NY!! Hallelujah!!

And no, Buffalo has nothing to do with these, so not sure why you see them around....
I was told the name might possibly have something to do with the French words for 'beautiful river', as in the Niagara.
In any case, we'd arrived! The longest and most drawn out part of our trek east had come to an end. We were now ready to settle in for several days and do some short distance exploring and wandering as well as some long awaited visiting.
That's cousin Patsy on the right, our chief greeter and playmate during our stay in Buffalo. Patsy is an adorable young lab who provided hours of play and entertainment for all. She, unfortunately, did not get nearly as much in return from Labra, who was quite content to just sit still and rest, being the old man he is.
Patsy never gave up though, she was always nudging him along saying "come on! Get up and play already! Whachya sittin' around for all day long?!"

His best trick yet!
Those two dogs sure got a lotta love
Attention
and activity
During our visit.
Some more than others regarding that last one.
