I live in CT. A town called Branford not far from NYC. My brother moved to a small town near Binghampton, pretty close to Pennsylvania. For me it was a little bit of a shock when I drove to visit him. Lots of small dilapidated looking farms. Tons of houses that looked pretty dumpy but at one time must have been really nice. Telephone poles that looked ancient with the old style glass insulators. Dead porcupines on the side of the road. Snowmobile trails that people were riding quads. Really rural. Places to hunt and fish look pretty abundant. Stuff that just doesn't exist where I call home. I think I could really get into living in a place like this but I doubt I could make the living like I am accustomed to in a place like that.

sounds like my town! lol! i grew up in a big city in canada (hamilton, ont), it was quite a change when i moved here, but i love it out here. jobs suck though!

sounds close to what i got, so we can stay on the same trails. i got 33" tires, 3" bl, 2 1/2" spring spacers, and add-a-leafs. there is a place over in westcorners(near endicott) called killer hill that is pretty cool called killer hill. it can get nasty in winter though.

Killer Hill used to be ok 10 years ago before the housing developement took over up there. Try the Rt. 26 trail in Vestal. Pretty long trail, and not too difficult for stockers. Haven't been there in a few yrs, but we made a nasty trail down a rock creek that can get pretty gnarly when damp. Another favorite spot, Ladys Land on the southside of Binghamton. Lots of steep climbs and a good rock section thats tough to find if you dont know where youre going. Just stay away durning hunting season.

Did you have the blue ranger for sale on craigs list?

I think it was full width axles locker front and maybe welded rear, some dent here and there.

We have a couple good events over Corning way during the warmer months, if you are interested I could keep you informed.

You CAN still get into Paragon if you really wanted to. The trails are all still there and in great shape. Apparently last year right after Paragon closed somebody decided to torch the lock on the gate for the I-81 overpass that connects Paragon with the strippins. This past summer there were alot of people in there but it probably won't last more than a couple of years because of that stupid airport that's being built.
