From Buffalo: BPAC Artist-in-Residence Entry 1, December 18, 2013

Dear Nancy,

I drove toward Salem this morning, but had to turn back in Angola because of the snow storm. So instead of visiting Burchfield's childhood home, I went to his grave site in East Aurora. The deer tracks and your clue about the sign helped me find my way. Fittingly, in the near distance were sumac.

My third attempt tomorrow,

Janelle
