I've always wanted to visit New York State. MangoCon may let me do it on the Company's dime!
Upstate NY, when it isn't winter, is actually pretty awesome. Especially in the fall and to a lesser extent, the spring. Great food, low costs, easy travel, tons of great history, neat cities, etc.

All of the stuff I like.
-
Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Letchworth / Portage Canyon, Ithaca, Watkins Glen, Finger Lakes Wine Country, lots of museums, the Erie Canal, famous battle sites... something for everyone.
-
Two Great Lakes, all of the Finger Lakes, the Grand Canyon on the East, the Hudson River Valley (a fjord), several very important cities, the oldest city north of Florida in the US (Albany), etc. Buffalo used to be America's second city too. Once upon a time NY had the largest and the second largest cities in the country!

Currently working on finding cool bars, restaurants, and places to sightsee in the Niagara Falls/Buffalo/Rochester area.
To do this right,.. you'll also need to make sure there are enough portals around for @JaredBusch and myself.

@scottalanmiller system issue, can you put a link around an image like @gjacobse just tried to do?
Looking at the two markdown formats, I am not sure how to do it.
a link: [test link] (link url)
an image: ! [img] (imgurl) -

[![ingressbattle[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/CmJJDRkm.jpg) ](www.ingress.com)ah testing.. the lack of the http in his link was it. this works..

You just need to add http. If you don't, it thinks its an alias.

Found the Tap and Mallet in Rochester, http://www.tapandmallet.com/, that looks pretty cool. A lot of local food, vegan and gluten free options, and lots of draft beer!
How many gluten free vegans will be in attendance???

@RojoLoco @coliver As far as I can see Cancer is becoming the reward for living life correctly.
Because we have started living generally long enough to not die before cancer can kill us.

To quote one of my band's newer songs: "I don't want to live forever, I just want enough quality and health in life to go as fast as I can, for as long as I can, no matter how short that might be..."
