The Official Argue About Where Upstate NY Is Thread

[EWG]

Social media? Teh TRGz is it for me.

Seriously? What's wrong with you old people? What are you, 30?! Dinosaur.

EDIT: my apologies, my teenage daughter got a hold of my keyboard for a moment.

If not I’m happy to send you this article that just came up: 20 most iconic places to vacation Upstate, you’ll never believe what number 2 is.

Grossingers?

The "sponsored" link isn't there right now for me to give them the click they're looking for.

I do recall that the website is nyup.com and that it looks and reads suspiciously like cleveland.com, including this article about now is the time to go chase Lake Erie steelhead

https://www.newyorkupstate.com/outdo...steelhead.html

Which again brings me back to the point that the two areas seem to have more in common than just grey skies and a higher than average percentage of beer enthusiasts.

Also found on this treasure chest of information: Upstate is losing a big tree so that Downstate can gain one.

Dammit.

[MakersTeleMark]

Well I’ll be a spuyten duyvil.
Now I want a NY slice...

I heard SLC is the place to go, not the Bronx.

67 degrees in Ellicottville today, that can't be helping the Thanksgiving opening day goal.

[m2711c]

it's always balmy way over by the lake... but it's hot as fuck in upstate too. 74 in westernville currently.










snowmaking will be delayed until further notice.

[Timberridge]

The steelhead can work their way upriver at a more leisurely pace this year.

Last day of summer today in the fringes of the tri state.

[BmillsSkier]

Are those Alpaca back there Benny?

[Benny Profane]

Yup. Really big farm nearby.

[Timberridge]

That Serotta practically glows in the sun. I like the color.

[Benny Profane]

They could paint. It's the second paint job from the factory, deep ocean blue. Got it done right before the factory got shut down in bankruptcy.

[BmillsSkier]

Did you pedal into the Upstate Benny or did you stop at the Greenwich line?

[Benny Profane]

Sometimes into Duchess, New Paltz a few times a year, and I've made it a point to do three or four days in Saratoga every year since I left. Cooperstown is the best.

Lower upstate (?) is a hassle today if you need anything from the DMV. Besides the fact that for most transactions it has been by appointment only for a few months now you can't even go to turn in license plates. A bunch of them are closed due to positive covid cases This sux because if you don't turn in the plates you can't take insurance off a vehicle so if the one in my county doesn't open by Monday I have to insure 2 vehicles that don't run anymore.

[BmillsSkier]

The Upstate had a holiday yesterday?

[Benny Profane]

It's a holiday everyday in the upstate!

If I don’t see that on a billboard over I-86 then someone in the marketing dept should lose their job.

[gravitylover]

Hahaha

Nope it's Covid. This shit's a pain in the ass.

Currently the electronic signs on the highways say “a small ask- wear a mask” or “NY Tough”
