<<< Some might find it promising that there's still a place in the Northeast
in which you can still buy an 8 ounce Coke served in a glass bottle or buy a
grilled cheese for $1.75. But, at the Lake Store on Indian Lake in New
York Somebodyisfromhere.com finds it interesting that one could even buy
Emu lotion (a fact Somebodyisfromhere.com finds peculiar, but confesses
he hasn't kept up on the latest Emu inspired merchandise).
Others might just enjoy the sun that seems to shine brighter and weather
that is just a little bit cooler than the city.
Somebodyisfromhere.com ended up at Indian Lake which is by no means
a forgone conclusion considering that the Adirondacks, last seen in an
early episode of the Soprano's final season in which Tony and Bobby had a
fight, has 3,000 lakes according to http://visitadirondacks.com/.

THE ADIRONDACKS.
According to Mapquest, Indian Lake is about 6 hours from Philadelphia and 4 3/4 hours from
Boston and about the same amount in dull driving from New York City.
The travel becomes more acceptable on the local roads. At seemingly 10 minute intervals there's
an occasional bridge overlooking a flowing river. Calculating at 50 miles an hour, there seems to
be a bar every five houses. Somebodyisfromhere.com isn't real judgemental don't about
McDonald's, but it's worth noting even they don't seem to be around as much.
Once you stop at Indian Lake there are plenty of things to do for the active person such as:
hiking, boating, skiing, even golf.
The Adirondacks have plenty to do for the lounger as well as the lake views are perfect for
sunning and, for the untanned Irish, hammocks under the shade. The mountains provide a
3-dimensional panoramic with breathtaking results.

<<< You can tell by looking at Jamestown, New York that there was once a semblance of logic to the
downtown, but in the meantime it's become a bit disheveled. In that respect, Jamestown is much like
Somebodyisfromhere.com's hair.
In some ways Jamestown resembles the recession, vacant and outdated. This isn't new for manufacturing
towns, most often associated with the Midwest, but also common in areas of Pennsylvania and Upstate
New York among other places. These towns have attempted to evolve with varying degrees of success.

New York State's Southern Tier.
Jamestown is located not far from the Southern Tier Expressway (Route 86). The Southern Tier is the nickname for the region (you know it's true
when they name a brewery after it) and the interstate centers around Binghamton (population 47,000) not too far from Scranton. Binghamton, home
of the SUNY college of the same name, has the town motto "Restoring the Pride" which accurately implies how much of a work in progress towns like
it are.
