^I had to come back to meets in New York before I learned that. NY state isn't just New York City just like California isn't just Los Angeles and San Francisco. The Finger Lakes were great. I'd like to come back for another fall meet there.

I had the same experience years ago. I accompanied a friend to visit his parents in Westchester County, NY (phone and mailing address were South Salem and Pound Ridge, but I don't remember which was which). I knew that his father had retired from the Daily News, commutting to the city every day. I was expecting an asphalt covered, skyscraper dominated shithole. I have never been more wrong about anything in my life. That area was gorgeous 35 years ago. I hope that it hasn't gone down the toilet since...
