New member from upstate NY (the REAL upstate)

[GGehret]

My aunt considered the Bronx upstate NY, Queens was part of Long Island and Staton Island was sorta NJ.....?

I know--see, any thing that's not right in the city!

LOL...Most people think upstate NY is anything north of New York City...NOPE, upstate, northern NY is anything around Watertown and above....bordering the St. Lawrence River and Canada.THAT'S the real upstate NY. It's beautiful up here, and VERY rural.

I am a Mavic Pro owner and 107 pilot from Central New York, which I consider to be pretty much a straight line through Syracuse, Utica and Saratoga Springs and 50 miles north or south of that line.

Yep, that's central NY for sure. You are close to the 107 testing center too. I'm thinking about getting my license...reading the material on it now. I'll have to travel down that way to test if I decide to take it.

I think I just read Watertown. I use to live in Jefferson near Stamford Ny.

We are very close to the St. Lawrence River, about 30 minutes from the Canadian border.
