Hi Chris,
Congratulations on the house. I currently attend Law School just across the Tappan Zee Bridge, and commute to that area on a regular basis. It is quite close to where you live if I am not mistaken. Unfortunately, I have yet to meet or see any NY falconers in that area. Most of my hunting is in Central to South Jersey, as the space is just too small in North Jersey to fly a longwing, but, nonetheless, we can keep in touch if you'd like.
