  The Bronx, very close to Manhattan near Yankee Stadium!!  So downstate NY. (sorry Gracie lol)  Funny, I am connecting with an old high school friend tomorrow and I told her it is better for me to meet in the "city" as if we pick somewhere in deep in the Bronx, I will have to take 3 buses and a subway to get to the place as I don't drive.  Trust me I've done it.  The Bronx is really just where I lay my head at night and hang out in my apt if I am not going anywhere or not working lol.  Need to find an outdoor place so I can take Miles 

. Maybe meat packing district near Apple so I can have them look at my iPad as well lol.
