Warm Summer Days

Figure Under Water - M. Connolly 

Did you know that 20% of the world's fresh water flows by and around Buffalo via lake Erie and the Niagara River? That being the case, it  seems residents should be getting a dividend rather than getting a bill for water, not unlike Alaska and its oil, but that's another blog. It's going to be 90 degrees in the shade today and tomorrow. That's life in America's Summer Garden of Eden. So, go jump in to some of that water. Splash pads and wading pools are open late today around the city. You can also cool off in one of the eight public city pools, not to mention get closer to the afore mentioned bodies of water. Even if you don't enjoy getting wet, you can appreciate a cooler breeze along our miles of waterfront. Technically, the city is 11.9 square miles of water out of our total area of 52.5. Let that soak in.
