From the shores of Lake Cayuga there sometimes comes to smell, the people say it's Ithica but we know it's just Cornell. Sorry I just couldn't resist. Welcome to the site.


LOL, yep, that's the place!

Oh, nice! My wife and I always remark that Seneca is prettier than Cayuga. :)

Hi! I'm Jeff from Ithaca, NY. I've gotten into learning this photography hobby over the past two years. Over christmas, an in-law, Jim, pointed out this site to me. I was super excited because it's really genuine and friendly (as opposed to most photography sites that are full of lots of negative toxic masculinity). I just got some film processing supplies and a film scanner in November, so at the moment I'm going all-in experimenting with B&W film photography (35 mm, I have a few minolta SLRs from the 70s). I have to say that the hardest part is keeping all the dust and scratches off the film! The resources I've enjoyed the most, so far, are the YouTube videos from Eduardo Pavez Goye, and the ones from Tony and Chelsea Northrup. And, now, The Ugly Hedgehog, of course!

Anyway, happy New Year everyone! :)

Welcome to the hog. I have an uncle who lives in Ithaca during the spring and fall and I visit occasionally (but it's a 13-14 hr drive). My dad also grew up there...went to school in Trumansburg and I've got a nice pic of Taughannock Falls on my wall. Thompkins Co. Airport is almost directly in line with my uncle's back porch and Cornell is off to the right. Beautiful area. Are you familiar with Finger Lakes Electric? It was my uncle's business and he passed it on to my cousin, who runs it now.

Have no idea about Getman's. F.E is in downtown Ithaca on Seneca St. and is geared to commercial contractors. I've never lived in Ithaca. Just visit occasionally. During one visit for a family reunion several years ago (during a summer Olympics) several of us cousins went to a local organic restaurant that had a limited menu, mostly bean-based if I remember. I just looked it up on Google - the Moosewood Restaurant. They have at least one cookbook out and my sister-in-law has a copy. Ever been there? My dad's father was a painter at a defunct factory that made a WWI training aircraft that was recently restored to flying condition and then donated to a museum...the Thomas-Morse Scout, aka Tommy. There's a bunch of stuff on the web about it's reconstruction and flight. Someday I'm going to make it to Corning (pass it on the way from IL)
