New Guy From Upstate NY


Hello everyone,

I just found the site this AM searching the web. I started poking around and saw a lot of familiar users from over at HEF! Forums are great, there is always so much good info, I can see contractor talk is no exception, tons of great info here!!!

Welcome Nedly. I'm in Watertown. Which part of the Adirondacks are you in? I'd bet it's colorful right now regardless of where.

Good Luck
Dave

Yup im from Keene! It snowed hard on our job the other day, didnt stick at that elevation, but higher up was all white!!

David C, my sister in law lives in clayton, I love it up there, always enjoy it when we go to visit! HEF= Heavy Equipment Forums, its another online bulletin board like this one.

JF, my Father lived in Hammondsport when he was a little boy, my Grandpa work at a vineyard or something, it looks like a nice little town!!

Re: New Guy From Upstate NY


I didn't meant to advertise another forum, I expected to see the photo and am not sure what I did wrong. Actually there was 2 pics, so I guess I really screwed it up. I'll try putting them in my photo gallery here and see if I can bring them out that way.

Good Luck
Dave

Re: New Guy From Upstate NY


Ahhhh, Crown Point huh. I did some wandering around the water holes over there as well as Ticonderoga. You gotta watch them boys over there, they love to fight and they sure aint fair about it. I made sure i was with some of the Schroon Lakers when was about quenching my thirst. Even us country boys are considered outsiders over there.
