REMEMBER THE 1950S WHEN DAD AND MOM PACKED THE KIDS IN THE BACK SEAT (WHINING) TO DRIVE TO WASHINGTON, D.C., DURING CHERRY BLOSSOM TIME?
They saw trees and monuments and cemeteries – oh boy! Over the decades the tradition grew and the traffic got thicker. While I’m not one to discourage tourism, this is my tip: Skip Washington this year and experience Buffalo’s Third Annual Cherry Blossom Festival, April 30 through May 7. Characteristic of our new and blooming Buffalo, volunteers and the Buffalo Olmsted Parks Conservancy have aced it – with great support from Wegmans, The Mentholatum Company, and much appreciated other sponsors.
