Thoughts, experiences and adventures from a resident of DelSo aka Delaware Avenue South in Albany, N.Y.
I’m back from Maine with a new perspective on the state, yet still committed to my previous impression - it’s far. Unlike that prior trip, though, this time I found enough wonderful things to experience and explore that I can now say, it’s definitely worth the trip.
