: First the Adirondacks.
: Now the Green Mountains.
: This wouldn't be payback for that other war, would it?
Funny guy! But, I don't think so. As one who spent most of 39 years in New York, and now just about 10 here in North Carolina, I have a strong affinity for both areas.
North Carolina isn't stealing anything, of course. The day New York can match the dollar value of NC, is the day film crews will choose the Adirondacks over the Blue Ridge.
At any rate, this has been a recurring theme.
Now, if you REALLY want to celebrate NY, and enjoy a magical summer all over again, watch HBO's "61*" tonight at 9PM EDT. I was 9 at the time, and this baseball year, the year of Maris & Mantle, hooked me on the game for life! Billy Crystal, a big baseball fan, wrote & directed this production. I hear it's very powerful.
