Where do you live? I know that applefest, in Fayette perhaps? We've driven by there and wow, you go about four miles an hour to get through. It's amazing how many people go there. Mxxx OR was it the Beak and Skiff applefest? It's great apple country.
Eastern upstate NY. We went south to visit Gould's Farm near where one of my twin daughters lives.
On good ol' Rt. 20 (which IIRC is a 2 lane highway that goes all the way from Boston to Concrete, Wash.)).
The Onondaga Reservation is there and lacrosse is the game. And football too. Go Tigers!
Also, Beak and Skiff will ship some really nice gift boxes for Christmas.
Some of the diversity one sees at the Apple Fest might be from all the foreign students from SU and Cornell and the many other colleges in the Fingerlakes area.
