Ooh, how did I miss this? It's so true.
I usually sneer a little at t-shirts with overplayed logos, but I'll never get sick of 'Ithaca is Gorges,' nor will I become bored with places like Buttermilk Falls and that fantastic bridge over the gorge alongside the Cornell art museum. *melt*
Ithaca is one of the few places in Upstate that I actively like. Watkins Glen is similar in geographical spirit. I absolutely love driving along and seeing unexpected tall waterfalls coming over the edge of cliff faces. Pretty, pretty.
