In this map image you can see Broadway – upper right. You might know that Buffalo, NY was named for its river access and beautiful waterfront – The name Buffalo is from the French beau fleuve, for “beautiful river”.
Buffalo, NY really boomed from the Erie Canal and the railroads; also, some connections to Hollywood movies brought a charm to the area.
Song for Today: Broadway by Buffalo’s Goo Goo Dolls
That Goo Goo Dolls song reminds me of a flash fiction I wrote (here) while joining in with the “What Pegman Saw” prompts back in 2017. After three years of writing flash fiction (with three different sites), I am taking a break from flash. I miss it but it was time to pause
