Dave,
I grew up in New Hartford NY, a suburb of Utica. We used to visit Lake George to go to the theme park (can't remember the name anymore
) and to see the Winter Olympic Park. The worst part of Upstate NY is the constant snow fall. It's not like other areas where you have snow and then it warms up, in NY it snows and snows and snows and you get sick of it by the middle of January.
Your right the 500 would be in hibernation......if I still have it
