Hey, you have to go through Massachusetts to get to Long Island (take the Conn. ferry).  If carrying maple syrup, stop by my place just above Boston.  I got some this season NH syrup just before the shut down.  We can compare (Dennis, I hope he brings the best).  I am good at making pancakes and waffles.  Bacon, of course.  Maybe you can bring Canadian bacon too!

I thought the same thing!  But with the border shut down it isn’t even possible for Canadians to ship within the US then pop down and pick it up.  Believe me I thought about it :) 

Dennis if you don’t find anyone locally though Geoff and I can start a northern bidding war… we pay in maple syrup, toonies, and hockey pucks.  I’ve got a jar of toonies saved up for just this type of thing!  There is however more demand for maple syrup futures than oil these days.

Also - glad to hear you are feeling better!  Very scary.
