Don't forget about the Farmingtons in New York, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, Delaware, Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas, Virginia.....

the only problem with Nil, unfortunately, and without going into too much detail, is that there appeared to be two of her, two different people who used the account.

Really? I never noticed that. The Nilly I know is the one who posts on her xanga blog from time to time....

I'm sure I'm not the only one who tends to superimpose Middle Earth on his/her surroundings...

NYC = Mordor + Gondor.

Some very Barrow-Downs like structures can be found in a park in Buffalo, except instead of wights, they contain garbage.

Ithaca, I think, makes a nice Rivendell, and the general central finger lakes region is the Shire. The Misty Mountains & Fangorn would both be Adirondack-ish...
and the Gray Havens were temporarily located in Rochester (while the fast ferry lasted) - which, I suppose, makes Canada the Undying Lands.

EDIT - Why, oh why, do I always have to be the first to post on a new page? It's a curse, I tell you!

Telchar is Danish too. . .

With so few Danish members we need to count everybody.

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.

Telchar's gone?

That's a loss, he was a nice guy. But, alas, real life has a strong pull on us all from time to time.

This thread is still going!!?!?!?! Man!! I haven't been here in ages. Does anyone remember me?

Note to the mods.

I realize that this might not be the best place to do a reintro post but, this the first time i've been here in over a year and I was just looking over the old posts I made and noticed that this thread was still up. So, my apologies if I have offended.

Thanks

Oh yeah. That was really neat to look at the list here.
