I believe you’re right, both of what you stated

[@randyhendrickson4735]

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Funny in an endearing, naive kind of way. Thank for posting.

[@TheCoverageProject]

That's exactly what I aim for! A enriching fun series of adventures with the intent to embrace life for what comes along. Thank you!

Mark Twain married a local woman by the name of Olivia Langdon. She was from a prominent Elmira Family. His study which you strolled by on the Elmira College campus was originally high on East Hill overlooking the city. Is where he penned some of his most famous literature. Elmira has seen better days, but working on a rebirth. Lol you were walking mark Twain riverfront park. Across the bridge is the southside of the city of Elmira. Southport is a " town" of Elmira and further south.

The sculpture is part of Arnot Art museum. The red building close to it. Is a carriage house owned by the museum.

Hopefully one day I'll give it a visit.

[@TheCoverageProject]

You certainly can! Certainly not the most visited place in the country, but there’s always things to do and see, no matter where you are

[@mandobizar]

Good video!! Is Elmira a safe city?

[@TheCoverageProject]

From my personal experience there, I think it sure is! The worst I encountered was somewhat unpleasant traffic. Saw many others leisurely walking through the city streets just as I was.

[@TheCoverageProject]

@koolwhip 64 Oh, then perhaps I just arrived on a lucky day, I'm only but a tourist!

[@mrbriggs68]

It's a pond not a pool

Um, no mountains.

I live here and, um, yes there are. I live on top of one.

The sign was geralds army and navy store.. Elmira was the fastest growing city in NY until the 1972 flood and its was a beautiful city until the flood and politics destroyed it. I was born there and left the state 5 yrs ago the economy is in shambles.

[@mrbriggs68]

Incorrect it was not a Army Navy store it was a paint and wallpaper store Harolds was on water st and railroad ave

[@paulsfam]

@@mrbriggs68 not before the 72 flood it was a army navy store I was there
