I have spent a hell of a lot of time in Rochester in my life. A few times they have stalked me for one reason or another but it has never ended in me being pulled over or being given any serious Hassle and I appreciate that. I have run into them a few times inside food places such as recently at Pizza Stop and they were always pretty friendly and down-to-earth guys. I would imagine some of the Suburban police departments are less friendly and would have caused me more trouble but these inner-city guys seem okay to me.

About ten years ago, the Rundel ran out of space and the Bausch & Lomb building was built across…read morethe street. The old building is beautiful from an architectural standpoint and it's used to store materials; the two buildings are connected by an underground tunnel. B&L donated a huge chunk of money for the new building (and got naming rights); that was certainly a much better financial time for Rochester's corporations....anyway, the B&L building is *beautiful*; very light and airy. Initially there was a small café in the B&L building, but it closed many years ago. After a few years elapsed, Simply Crepes (whose main location is in Pittsford Village's Schoen Place) opened at the library. It's in a lovely space, with a dining area overlooking the main lobby of the library. They have a very inventive and quite extensive choice of more than 30 types of crepes (breakfast, entrée & dessert crepes - including such unusual ones as buffalo chicken, Chinese chicken salad and chocolate peanut butter). They also have soups, salads, and a huge selection of specialty coffees & many other tempting-sounding beverages. I had lunch there with a friend on a weekday in late 10/05 and my vegetarian crepe was very tasty, but I felt it was pricey for what I got. The café quickly became popular with the downtown lunch crowd and it fills a big void. The B&L building also opened a beautiful reading garden - in 2004 - and it's a lovely oasis in the center of the city.

I love libraries but one beloved library from my childhood holds a special place in my heart. It's…read morethe Rundel building, which used to have a "Secret Room" hidden behind a door disguised as a bookcase. As a child, seeing this door open into a miniature world with dolls from around the world was almost magical. Today, the Secret Room is in the new library across the street while the Rundel building houses the areas for genealogy research and history. My recent visit to Rundel was to use their brand new, top-of-the-line microfilm readers. These wonderful machines don't just allow you to photocopy your research pages, they allow you to save your pages and email them to yourself or even save them on a thumbdrive. How efficient is that? There is a fair amount of security on this building and my Harvard library microfilm of a manuscript from the early 1900s caused a bit of a stir every time I entered and exited the front doors to feed the parking meter. While I'm certain that no one cared as much about this manuscript as I did, I wasn't going to chance leaving it unattended just in case I was hauled off to parking jail. Anyway, I was able to get some of my work finished in the quiet microfilm area on the second floor while keeping that parking meter fat and happy. As I sat at the machine, examining pages that were filled with the thoughts of a writer who lived long ago, I felt a strange twist of comfortable melancholy in this building. The magical Secret Room was gone but my warm childhood memory was revived, and as I read the words on the pages of this manuscript from long ago, I was touched by the thoughts of someone who did her best to not only make the world a better place, but tried to ensure that her thoughts were recorded in history. Her publisher made so many mistakes that she decided not to publish the book, and actually said so in the manuscript. Amazingly, here I was, sitting at a microfilm machine in Rochester, NY, reading the words she wrote a century ago, more than 2,800 miles away, and in another language. I am grateful to the Rundel library, not only for a warm childhood memory but especially for making that possible. Rock on, Rundel!

Henrietta is the heart and soul of all things ethnic and delicious in this area and I actually really like it. It's bad for traffic and it doesn't seem like it's much different to Amherst NY (part of Buffalo) in some ways - but it does have some great restaurants from all kinds of places in the world and I definitely enjoy it here. Go to Cha Chat Cafe, try Brown Sugar Milk Tea. Try Lemon Black Tea at Kung Fu Tea. Try Roti Canai at Coco Garden (Malaysian). Try Yuk Gae Jang at Seoul House and Sodam. Try Joe's Brooklyn Pizza. Try a White Hot and a Ground Round at Schaller's. Try Gelati (cherry and vanilla) at Rita's. By then you'll be swole, in a tummy sense.

The majority of this consumer mecca is Jefferson Rd and W Henrietta Rd. There's also little gems of things to do like go catch a $2 movie at Movies 10, see some live country music at the Roost, and so on. Henrietta is Rochester's most popular suburb and has a great night life. It's also home to R.I.T (Rochester Institute of Technology). Which was originally in downtown Rochester but moved to the southern part of Henrietta in 1968 (I suppose technically making it the South Henrietta Institute of Technology or S.H.I.T). Despite being a bit of a college town and having hundreds of businesses there are plenty of nice quiet safe neighborhoods outside the main streets in Henrietta where anyone would love to live. Besides being located right by I-90 between the city of Rochester and miles and miles of open farmland to the south, it's also a quite affordable place to live. If it wasn't for the cold weather and the lack of sunshine throughout the year Henrietta would be nearly perfect.
