So I lived in this town from 2004-2007. Rented a house with some college friends. First, it’s very small, only .8miles square. Secondly, there are your “every-town-has-them” Italian and Chinese food places. Nothing special at all. There’s a tattoo parlor called Lola’s which is very overpriced but still gets a lot of business solely because they’re local.

It’s a theme restaurant. About ninja(s)! Not a million miles away! Not in Japan, or California, but a mere hour of travel into good old Manhattan, NYC. Oh, yes. I believe my friend is having a birthday thing there this spring. I am excited.

Time your visit CAREFULLY – the closer it is to Christmas, the more packed and insane the crowd is. I find that after New Year’s is better than late December.

My family moved here a few years back. I try to make it out to see them at least once a year. This year will be 12/21-12/27.
