James...I certainly don't want to debate with you as to which place is more North Country - Knapps Station or DeKalb. But I think you may be mistaking Knapps Station for another place. It is a distinct location separate from Norwood or Norfolk and it's not Raymondville (or anywhere near Route 56 for that matter). I like to call it a suburb of Norwood. It is at the crossroads of several county routes and side roads.
And it most definitely does not have a Stewart's. It has a country corner store (which you should go to if you've never had a the opportunity to before.) The question of whether Knapps Station or DeKalb is more North Country - well, I'll leave that for the readers to decide.
I do want to clarify something....I am NOT saying that I don't like the North Country. I am simply surprised by other people mistaking me for a non-North Country native - an alien to the North Country. Especially with my beard going in full force, I would think that I have North Country written all over me. That is all. I like living here and I am happy that I was born and grew up here. Am I going to have to start wearing a carhart jacket??? Maybe that's an idea for the wedding....carhart bib-overalls, carhart jacket, and steel toed boots. But then, with the wedding being in the Utica area, I think I would just be misunderstood. But not in the North Country.
