    I have to say it’s CNY, though they are within the Inland Northern American English linguistic area. I didn’t hang around long enough to figure out if they say “pop” or “soda”

    Cancel the Maple festival? Truly tragic. Hopefully short term.

    First the sauerkraut festival, now this.

    If this thread had an avatar pic, that collection of painted billboards may just be it. Awesome.

    Nice on the blog too!

    Seriously. I guarantee I could eat my way through both.

    Guess we'll be one year older when we do.

    Possible, but Peek n Peak is basically just east Cleveland, or at best, Erie-adjacent.

    I've bought gas from some guys without teeth along the expressway and gambled at the Seneca Casino with some res gents that might disagree with that assertion.

    But I dig tossing it out there like that.

    I just laughed out loud. I’m picturing an upstate bar with one drunk sleeping with his head on the bar. He picks up his head and says to nobody “the southern tier barely qualifies as upstate”. Hilarity ensues
