A day in the life of an Ohioan turned New Yorker
Published on April 9, 2005 By alison watkins In Travel
Since Hardin is away having fun and playing gigs in Seattle, I have decided I'm going to have a little fun of my own. I'm going to head into the city tomorrow (NYC). I have never been there on my own before. I'm a little nervous, but hey, I have to navigate it out sometime. I will have to write a blog about my city excursion. Let's hope I make it out of the concrete jungle alive!

I believe you have. Everyone talks about how great NYC is, but I've been there, and it's way overrated. It's filthy, unimpressive, and overall drab. This could be the NJ-NY feud talking, but that's what it seems like. But forget what I think, alison, enjoy it!

InBloom:
It's a lot to take in your first time. You will always be looking up at all of the buildings.....I still do this and I've been there a bunch over the past 6 months. There are a lot of great things to do. Check out the upper east side and time square when you get a chance to go

NJ:
To each his own. NY is way better than NJ, although I went to this awesome hot dog stand in NJ (davey's coneys...it's like exit 22 on rt 80..good stuff!). Actually, I can't totally knock NJ because The Boss is from there!
