[tj1187]

When do you Long Islanders leave the island for "Opening Day?"

[Mr VJP]

Depends.  Where are you heading to hunt?

[tj1187]

Iam headed for 3f Northern Dutchess County, Friday morning about 4 hour trip

[Karpteach]

Not planning a gun hunt this year. Hopefully next year.

[Mr VJP]

If you can leave the Island by 4AM Friday morning, you should have no problem.

The middle of the day Thursday would be better.

;D
