Not sure which Price Chopper you went to but the one a couple blocks off Broadway near Lake has moved one block closer toward Broadway. Can park inside the garage there as well. A little smaller but much cleaner than before.

Opening day card looks excellent, better than last yr's opener, imo. But I'm betting there will be complaints.

Agreed, Sir a never ending battle, but sometimes one can enjoy the spoils of battle and then go back to the war.
I meant the Ballston Ave store as the place to go, very nice store, great cooks and bakers, great place to use for catering, my opinion.

I believe they are building a movie theatre in that location.
I'm in Saratoga, now, been here since Monday. My girl and I went to this cool homemade ice cream place that I think you'd like.

Hey, Ma,
Living in Manhattan I can appreciate the boondocks and being a gear head, I'm loving seeing all these 4 x 4s with beefed up suspensions. If I could figure a way to make NYC $ up here, I wouldn't go back.
Anyway, enjoy the ice cream. See ya soon.
Brett
aka, Badco

I'm actually doing some writing for the Saratogian (got hired there last month) and will be doing a ton of stuff for our site from the track. I'll try to make it down to the tent when I can; I'm off on Mondays, so I'll probably stop in on the Monday of that week.
