Happy weekend! The trees are budding, the tulips are popping up downtown, and this spring weather just seems to feel extra good this year. Hope you’ve got plans to soak up the 70° temps we’re seeing in the forecast! Here are a few ideas:
Inside Out at Mountain Gallery: The first exhibit opening for downtown’s newest gallery is tomorrow (April 9th) from 6-8pm. Mountain Gallery will showcase over 40 pieces from 25 plein air artists, celebrating the beauty of bringing the outside in. If you can’t make it tomorrow, the exhibit runs through April 24 - details here!
Patio Season: Don’t know about you, but this weather and seeing some patios opening up downtown is beckoning us out for date night this weekend! A quick swing through and we saw outdoor dining at Fenimore’s, [farmacy], Morgan and Co, Raul’s, Radici, Craft on 9, Mean Max, Flight Market, and more. Cheers to spring!
Back On the Court: Lace up your sneaks - the City of Glens Falls just announced that the pickle ball and tennis nets at Crandall Park will be up as of today, and basketball rims and nets will be in place by early next week! Grab the scoop here.
Celebrate The Park: The Park Theater is celebrating 3 years in business this weekend with a selection of complimentary food and drinks (and a cash bar!), along with live entertainment and a variety of flower arrangements to admire from Epithet Floral. Details here!
Take a Walk: With broken hearts, we said goodbye to our sweet pup, Murphy, last week after 10 beautiful years together. He taught us so much - like how to greet each day with excitement, enthusiasm, a smile, and a tail wag - no matter the day of the week, the weather, or what’s on the agenda. We can’t help but wish for one more long walk with him, to watch his joy bounding from tree to tree. So if you find yourself with some free time this weekend, might we suggest a long walk in the sunshine with your pup or someone you love? There’s nothing we can think of that would make Murph smile bigger (well, except bacon).
Have a great weekend!
