They keeps em in storage with the moguls until the weather gets chilly.

They don't put em away until mid-June.

So …
VT has a chance?

**gravitylover** · 10-05-2023, 10:33 AM

Nope, that's why we jettisoned them a few hundred years ago and gave them to New England. It still kinda acts like the Eastern Upstate province though.

Come on. If Buffalo never made the cut no way west of that is upstates.

Pet wallaby? Wtf. How do you even buy one?
Maybe in the true upstates at a flea market with a blue tarp on it. Maybe.

From the article, "A hobby farmer in Chautauqua County is searching for his pet wallaby, last seen hopping down the side of the road."

Depending upon the direction the wallaby is most likely either heading to the Seneca Casino for some res gas, weed, and a good time, or to the Chautauqua Institute for some deep introspection and world class speakers. Coin flip really.

Too late for the Institute- pretty much closed for the season, missed any of those events by a month... Could have wanted to go see the fall colors or just hang at Lake Chautauqua maybe with the warmer than usual weather this week....

Then my money is on the casino with a maybe a couple hops further to check out the new Yodeler Chair at HV.

Mountain biking trails at Holimont possibly also... No big concert at the Casino this weekend for music. But HV Fall Fest weekend also coming up this weekend.

Now that sounds like a good time. Been a long while since I've wandered around E'ville in the autumn. My sister was up at a lake house on Chautauqua last weekend or the weekend before and it looked lovely as ever up there. Fall is probably my favorite time of year in the Great Lakes region.

**Core Shot** · 10-06-2023, 06:03 AM

As evil as the Rockefeller clan seems to be.
Their oysters are delicious.

If youre interested the clams casino on the Seneca menu, I’d take a pause and reconsider how you want to spend the next 12-24 hours.

Good point. The reservation is know for many things; cheap gas, cheap tabacco, and homemade jerky. Clams in any form are not one of these things.

**Boosh** · 10-06-2023, 11:57 AM

will be embarking on a Tour De Upstate over the next few days. home to Rawchester tonight; going to a wedding tomorrow in upstate-adjacent St. Catherine's, ON; back to the US-of-A to hang in Buff for the Bills game on Sunday morning; back to the Roc Sunday night; then probably doin' some leaf peepin' north of Utica on our way back to New England on Monday. Excited to travel the entire length of I-90 in NY, should be a fun weekend.
