For all of those from the CNY area, that includes Cortland, Syracuse, Utica and all the little ones surrounding share the fun spots, events, and anything you like.
I'm Canadian, but my parents own cottages near Broad Albin, NY. Silver Lake has the most AMAZING fireworks show for the 4th of July. Find yourself a little sport along the shore somewhere, and you can see the shows of every little community around the lake. In fact, the folks local to the area must like to celebrate a lot, because we've never spent a weekend there in the summer without fireworks!
We pass by a little tattoo shop on the way called "Tats by Zapp" or something, and I've always just wanted to pop in for something small, if you've heard of it, any feedback?
One name: Dinosaur BBQ, you want to know central NY, you need to go there.
+1. That place is...pretty interesting. The one in Syracuse is different from the one in Rochester -- different theme, different patrons. Fantastic food!
You know, it's a sketchy little place.. It's near Amsterdam, and it looks like a rickety haunted house. The parking lot usually has several cars, so my guess is that it's either not that bad, or the only option if you want a tattoo!
I think I might pass on that anyways, all of my work is from the same guy here in Ottawa, starting 8 years ago..
And yes, decals! Are they doing the trick? I STILL haven't made anything for my Jeep..
