I live in Ulster county. Where are you? Banded 7/28

Susan

I am in Brooklyn NY.

Are you near Rochester, Syracuse, Watertown .... what cities are near you?

Ulster County is in South East NY, over the PA and NJ borders with NY. 1 hour south of Albany. Towns New Paltz, Kingston, Middletown and Newburgh. Where is Sodus?

Susan

Sodus is between Oswego and Rochester, NY Are you familiar with Rochester, Syracuse...area? I think that we are like 6-8 hours from New York City.

Barb

Ooh, ooh! I know where Sodus is!! I went to college in Geneva and Sodus was an occasional road-trip destination. Cool!!!

Yes, that's right!!! I love to go to Geneva and eat @ Nonna Trattoria's restaurant...IT IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE! Did you ever eat there? How far is NJ from Geneva?

Barb

That restaurant doesn't sound familiar. Was it there in 1979 - 1983? That's when I was up there. Our favorite, when we could afford it, was Wing Tai. Then there was Dave's Sisters Subs, of course.

It's been several years since I've visited, unfortunately. I guess it's about a 5-6 hour drive from where I live now.

I loved the Finger Lakes reqion, and would seriously consider relocating there someday...

Hi, Did you ever find someone in the Albany area? And how is your weight loss going ?

HI Barb!

I go to support group in Cooperstown, NY. It meets on the first Tuesday of every month. I don't know if Cooperstown is any closer to you. But, if you want more info, let me know!

I saw that someone here is in Ulster County.... I was JUST down your way the other day, doing some work. SMALL world!
