Such utter tourist we were yesterday. From walking by the river killing time before a hall of fame opened, to sucking back fantastic BBQ (the barnyard special at the Double T), to wandering around Notre Dame, to hitting the ugly hotel swimming pool with the eastern European 1973 paint scheme, to …

I had BBQ and specifically pulled pork three times on the road. State Street BBQ in Watertown, NY. Beale Street BBQ in South Portland, Maine. Tail O' The Pup, Ray Brook, New York. I hate to rank good BBQ pulled pork but the Tail O' The Pup's sauced take was so soft you could have spread it into a …

Via NYCO, and just for the record, this post is very important not because of its critique of the Dino BBQ but because of its identification of three more worthy WNY BBQ joints to explore: • “But there I was, chewing on a rib as Harleys rumbled up and parked next to my outdoor table, thinking …

Steve French • Regular readers will know that I take great joy in being able to pop over the border that is 35 minutes from my front door and nose around northern New York state. Today, we primarily went to go to the Thompson Park Zoo at Watertown, sitting on a hill behind the town and it was a …

As time passes and you get older you forget you laughed a lot over bands like Foreigner and so you now think it is kind of cool to walk around the New York State Fair and listen to them. Apparently a lot of people are of the same mind. They were tight and from 500 feet looked pretty good …

Yes, it's a school bus next to a fire • No big grand tours this summer - just a CNY hop and then a New England lay around. Going to new places like Brattleboro, VT for a night which allows us to find Curtis BBQ just up the road in Putney. I am receiving some resistence familially as to …
