I love the sense of community when you are in this building. We come here twice a year for their fundraising meat raffles, they do one right before Thanksgiving and right before Easter. It's free to get in and free to drink their draft beer, pop and water. The raffles are $.50 a piece and it usually lasts a solid three hours. I love watching my dad light up when he sees his old friends, one of which happens to be my God Father. It's a great time and supports a great cause.

The names of her 2 sons are here on this Veterans Memorial. I should have put her name on there, too, because she suffered for years, not knowing the fate of her sons.

My family and I started coming to the Isaias Gonzalez-Soto Library (formerly the Niagara Branch)…read morewhen our usual branch, Crane, was closed for a few months for renovation. Even though Crane is open again, we still find ourselves coming here, because it's a pleasant little library. The small size doesn't bother us at all, especially since interlibrary requests are now free. If we really want something in particular, it's easy to put in a request online and then come pick it up once it's arrived. I actually prefer the smallness of the library, since it makes keeping track of a toddler much easier. The children's section is cozy, and includes a nice selection of English/Spanish bilingual picture books and picture books in other languages that I believe reflects the diversity of the West Side neighborhood. There's also a big Connect Four game that kids can play with, as well as a boat they can sit in to read. There are often free and simple craft projects that kids can take home and make, like a garland of paper ghosts around Halloween. I believe Crane offers take-home crafts as well, but they've been easier to spot at the Gonzalez-Soto. When we say we're going to the library, my toddler usually wants to come to this branch, so if you take endorsements from almost-three-year olds, the choice is clear. If you live or work in/frequent the neighborhood, I think it's worth visiting.

For DVDs- there's a big selection of TV series and a medium selection of other DVDs, including blue ray. Most notable collections for books was the small collection of exam prep books, the Spanish literature section, as well as a huge selection of language (foreign and ESL) books, DVDs, and audio books. The library also has pamphlets for job and language resources. There are 12 PCs for adults and 6 dedicated to kids. And almost half the library is dedicated to kids.

You can do everything you want here from fine dining to casual food to strolling down the streets on a nice day to visit all the little stores. They've also organized parking in such a way that there's a huge free parking lot that's easy to use and in the right location. On weekends in the summertime there's a farmers market as well that I've enjoyed for the last few years.

I would be lying through my teeth if I said that I didn't miss this beautiful sleepy suburb of Buffalo very much. Living here is in many ways paradise and if I compare it to where I've lived before - in the heart of the sweaty San Fernando Valley or in the humidity of Houston close to downtown or even in my little tiny houses in Oxford and Manchester (England) and don't get me started on dorm rooms in Washington DC area... I have to say that living in Clarence was the best of all of them. So you're not near any good restaurants and you're far away from the highway (despite it running through Clarence, thanks for the toll road morons), and that sucks, as does the weather in winter, but living out in the country with the beautiful air, the greenery, the fields, the animals and everything is the most beautiful thing, and although much of Clarence is more built up now, much of it isn't. The food options aren't as good as in some of the other suburbs, but that doesn't bother me at all. I can drive to wherever is needed for food... I wouldn't live anywhere other than Clarence in this area after living here. I couldn't go back to Amherst or any of those other burbs because living out in the countryside is like paradise, or in this case, "Claredise." By the way, watch out for the evil insects here. They will literally kill you. Hence the town name, "Killerants, NY." I prefer taller ants though. They are more peaceful. They have a live-and-let-live attitude. Which is why they are called Tolerance. Plus I found my lovely Starlight and my lovely Son here. It will always be one of my favourite towns in the country and I miss it so much.

One is to pick up Wagyu beef at the local farm. The other is to see a friend who lives out here. So I've spent a little time in town walking around. It's cute. Very. Nice little coffee shop and a few stores. Surrounded by farmland and working farms. Some horse barns too. Very close to the city, but still has flavor of the country. Looking forward to spending more time here.
