The Weekender: July 3 - 5

Happy 4th of July weekend! While it’ll be a little different this year, we’re excited to make the most of it and hope you are too. We’ve got big plans for blueberry pie, drinks on the back porch, and maybe hanging out in the closet with our dog while he panics about the fireworks ;) Other than that, here’s what looks good:

Around Town: West Mountain opens for the summer this weekend! The aerial adventure park, mountain biking, and hiking sound like a blast, but the scenic chairlift ride and picnic package sound awfully nice on this hot day. Get the scoop here!

Back Roads: It’s blueberry picking season! We were psyched to see that Winney’s Blueberry Farm in Schuylerville is opening for the season this Saturday and we can smell the blueberry pie already. Grab their details here and stay tuned for a roundup of berry farms to visit within the next week or so - happy picking!

At the Lake: As with most events this year, the Lake George Land Conservancy’s Hike-A-Thon has decided to go virtual. Here’s the gist: get out for a hike on Sunday, July 5 - whether in your neighborhood or your favorite mountain trail - and share a photo on social with the hashtag #LGHikeAThon2020 and #HikeLakeGeorge. Check out this list of LGLC’s parks and preserves for some great hike ideas - happy trails!

In the Mountains: Have you ever hiked in to Camp Santanoni up in the Adirondacks? It’s one of the surviving Great Camps on the shore of Newcomb Lake and it is a beauty. It’s about a five mile walk along a carriage road from the parking lot to the Main Lodge on the lake, and this Sunday they’ll be offering special tours focused on the staff that made Santanoni a fabulous retreat back in the day - details here.

Enjoy the weekend and Happy 4th!

The Weekender: June 26 - 28

Happy Thursday, neighbors! What’s doing this weekend? We’re putting together a raised bed so that we can get even more veggies and flowers planted - well, maybe. Just saw the rainy forecast! But hey, Friday looks beautiful, so back porch drinks are certainly in order - and hopefully a few of these:

Doc’s is Back: Another downtown fav is reopening this weekend! We love the patio at Doc’s and they’ll be open for outdoor dining on Friday and Saturday - with live music to boot! Have you been? They’re suggesting reservations - so grab your table here.

Around Town: Congrats are in order for our Glens Falls graduates! If you’re interested in cheering them on from afar - you know, virtually - Glens Falls City School will be live streaming Friday’s Diploma Ceremony at 9:30am and the Commencement Ceremony at 7:30pm on their Facebook page - here’s the link. Congrats to the Class of 2020!

Back Roads: You guessed it - another barn sale :) This time at one of our favorite Washington County spots - Gardenworks Farm. Here’s the scoop on the sale, and while you’re out that way, do yourself a favor and pop into R.S. Taylor just up the road for a beer. Actually, you may just find us sitting out there tomorrow afternoon ;)

On the Lake: Have you guys been watching Summer Rush on The Food Network? We’re hoping to catch up this weekend… Anyway, the show features The Foy Family and their three family restaurants in Bolton Landing - Cate’s Italian Garden, The Chateau on the Lake, and Diamond Point Grille. Hoping to take a ride up to try one (or all three!) sometime soon! If you go, check out a few more of our Bolton favorites here.

Have a great weekend!
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: June 19-21

Happy weekend and Happy Father’s Day! How was your week? We’ve been soaking up the summer weather and enjoying puttering around in our makeshift backyard garden - we clipped our first little zinnia bouquet last night and we’re seeing a few tomatoes start to take shape - it’s the summer of the garden, for sure. Are you guys spending lots of time in the yard too?

It’s going to be a hot one this weekend - here’s what’s on our radar:

At Restaurants - INSIDE!: Who knew that would be something we’d ever be typing with excitement?! That’s right friends, you can now enjoy indoor dining at your favorite restaurants. Though with this weather, we’re pretty sure everyone will still be lining up for patio dining! Where are you headed this weekend?

Strawberry Picking: ‘Tis the season! The perfect socially distanced activity with the reward of a perfect summer dessert! We’ve heard of two strawberry farms open for picking - Ariel’s Farm in Gansevoort and Hand Melon Farm in Greenwich. Any others? The big question now - strawberry shortcake or strawberry rhubarb pie?

Barn Sales: Oh, how we’ve missed our afternoons out treasure hunting at antique sales! Here’s one in Hudson Falls (Friday only) that you won’t want to miss (we went to the early bird sale today and it was packed with great finds!).

For Dad, Of Course: Here are just a few ideas from local shops that we stumbled across while perusing Instagram:

• A few cans of their favorite cold beverage from Common Roots or Mean Max, or a bottle of the good stuff from Springbrook Hollow Distillery

• All things outdoors from Fountain Square Outfitters

• A quirky card from Rude Betty, with a thoughtful handwritten note inside

• The coolest ADK swag from Pure Adirondacks

• A round of golf at his favorite local course (here’s a recent recommendation from Gordon)

• A gift card to any of our amazing downtown restaurants

Enjoy your weekend!
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: June 12 - 14

Happy weekend! In addition to washing the pollen off the car for the eighth time this week, here’s what else we’re hoping to get to:

Craft on 9 is Back: Psyched to see that Craft on 9 is back up and running as of today (Thursday)! Looks like they’ll have takeout as well as limited outdoor seating (first come, first served). Can’t wait to get our hands on their summer cocktails to go, too! Grab the details here.

…and Juicin’ Jar is too: Yay! Summer smoothies, here we come. They’ll be open 9-2 Tuesday thru Friday - find them here.

Downtown: Hoping to get back into our summer Saturday morning routine this weekend - which includes hopping on our bikes and cruising down to the Farmers Market. Get the details on the market here!

At the Lake: The weather looks awesome this weekend, and if you’re looking to get out on the water, we saw that Lake George Steamboat Company is setting sail again starting Saturday! Grab the scoop here.

Back Roads: If you’re up for a scenic Friday night ride out to the Washington County Fairgrounds, they’ve got a Food Truck Corral happening with BBQ, sweet treats and more (pre-order or walk-up ordering available!) - grab the details here!

Inactivewear for a Good Cause: The gang at Fountain Square Outfitters and Trampoline Design have teamed up to create the perfect activewear for … inactivity! With designs like “Laundry Mountain” and “Backyard Outing Club”, they’re perfect for all of the extra time we’re spending at home these days. And bonus - all proceeds will be donated to the Glens Falls Hospital Foundation in appreciation of frontline responders. Browse the collection and shop here!

Enjoy the weekend!
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: May 29 - 31

This is it! The last weekend in May. Summer is just around the corner, and things seem to be looking up (and opening up?!) around here. We’ll take it. We’re hoping the rain moves through quickly tomorrow so we can soak up the weekend much like last weekend (wasn’t that weather the best?!). Here are a few ideas:

Picnic: I know, we tell you to grab something to go every weekend. But how about grabbing something to go from a downtown restaurant and taking it to City Park for a socially distanced picnic?! We’ve seen some couples and families safely taking advantage of this pretty downtown space, sitting on picnic blankets and chairs, and it just seems very Hometown USA, doesn’t it? If it doesn’t rain, we’re hoping to give this a try!

*Ahem, a friendly disclaimer: Make sure you’re considerate of the city’s current guidelines when it comes to parks and picnics - like only picnicking with members of your household and wearing a mask if you’re within six feet of others - read more on that here.

Take a Hike: We’re hoping to finally get out for our first hike of the season this weekend! A few of our go-to trails are closed for the time being due to crowding (like The Pinnacle, for example), so we’re thinking about some other local options, like Sleeping Beauty, Buck, (edited to add: just heard these trails have been very crowded!), Cat Mountain, or Hadley (and would love if you have any lesser known suggestions!). If you’re getting out, check out these Leave No Trace tips for hiking during Covid, especially avoiding times and places of high use!

Build Something: A little extra time on Pinterest has our list of “things to build” growing, but we finally tackled the first project last weekend: building a flower box for our bay window! We used this tutorial, and it was fairly quick and easy, and definitely a rewarding way to spend an afternoon. Would love to see photos of yours if you build one too!

Backyard Americana: We’ve been inspired to see lots of fun backyard (and front yard!) activities happening around the neighborhood - slip and slides, running through sprinklers, little red wagons filled with gardening supplies, folks enjoying a good book or drinks on their front porches, couples and families riding by on their cruiser bikes. It kinda makes us want to buy a few of those classic aluminum folding lawn chairs and have a popsicle in the afternoon sun ;) If there’s one thing this pandemic has taught us, it’s to appreciate the little things. Hope you can fit a few simple pleasures in this weekend, too.

Have a great weekend,
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: May 22-24

Memorial Day Weekend! We’re ever so grateful, today and every day, for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We’re wishing we could commemorate the weekend like we usually do, with parades, ceremonies, cookouts with family. But let’s make the most of this whole thing, shall we? Here are a few things we’re getting up to this weekend:

Grilling Season: It’s time to dust off the grill! We’re looking forward to cooking out this weekend, but we’re also psyched to see so many options popping up from our local favs for bbq to go! We spotted Memorial Day Weekend offerings at The Queensbury Hotel, Radici, Farmacy, Morgan & Co, and more. Get ‘em while they’re hot!

Also, Ice Cream Season: Good news - the Cooper’s Cave Ice Cream window opens today! A ride on the bike path and a cone to go sounds like the perfect afternoon to us. Grab the scoop (pun intended) here.

Beer, Delivered: Have you guys been taking advantage of beer delivery? Tom is soaking this up while it lasts (and hoping it’s one of the things that sticks after this is all behind us). I mean, what’s better than having beer delivered to your front door on a Friday afternoon? ;) Check out Mean Max, Common Roots, and Slickfin Brewing. Cheers!

Stroll the Orchard: Hicks Orchard is open this weekend and the trees are in full bloom! They’ll have the orchards open for strolling and the apple barn open for cider donuts and hard cider on Saturday and Sunday from 10-4…sign us up! Details here.

If You’re Heading to the Lake…: Here’s a great roundup of what’s up and running this weekend on and around Lake George - it includes the opening of some beaches (like Million Dollar Beach), boat and kayak rentals, golf, hiking, and take-out from local restaurants. That said, here’s our usual disclaimer: be safe, wear your mask, practice social distancing, and be prepared to change plans if there’s a big crowd.

Memorial Day: We’re so bummed that the parade is cancelled this year, but thrilled to hear that the City of Glens Falls will still be holding a small remembrance ceremony. The public is asked not to attend, however, it’ll be streamed live on YouTube at 10am on Monday - here’s the link to their channel.

Enjoy the weekend!
Bri + Tom

P.S. In case you missed it, Gordon shared this week’s Hometown News roundup last night - read it here.

The Weekender: May 15 - 17

It’s 70 degrees, the weekend is in sight, and we’ve got big plans…to build some raised beds for our garden. Just another activity to check off the list of quarantine clichés (you know, like organizing the closet, baking bread, playing Yahtzee…). We digress.

We’re just as bummed as you are to have heard about all of the summer cancellations this week, so here are a few things that aren’t cancelled for this weekend: 

Ice Cream: Yep, Martha’s and Rob and Deb’s are both opening this weekend! We’re sharing this suggestion in a hushed whisper because there’s a decent chance that EVERYONE will be headed out for ice cream this weekend, so, our disclaimer alert: be safe, wear your mask, practice social distancing, and be prepared to change plans if there’s a huge crowd. And most of all, enjoy your ice cream! You’ve earned it ;) 

Cocktails to Go: We just saw that Radici Kitchen is now offering cocktails to go - yes, please! By the way, if you haven’t tried their take-out yet, click here to check out some of our favorites - perfect for a porch date night!

Adirondack Theatre Festival: Okay, so the in person event is indeed canceled (agh!) BUT we are psyched to hear that they’ll still be offering an On Demand option! This cancelation is a huge bummer for downtown as well, as it always draws so many folks who patronize other businesses before and after the shows. Check out their On Demand offering here and consider making a donation if you’re in a position to do so - it will support ATF in this off-season, you’ll get access to cool content, and bonus - $25 of every donation will go towards purchasing a gift card to the local restaurant or shop of your choosing. Win-win.

Food Truck Corral: Not this weekend, but we wanted to give you a heads up that the Food Truck Corral at The Shirt Factory is back (with lots of new precautions in place!) next Thursday, May 21 from 4-8pm. Sounds like they’ll have a website for pre-order / pre pay / curbside pickup going live in the next few days, so stay tuned on their Facebook page for updates!

Have a great weekend!
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: May 8 - 10

Happy weekend! We’re going to pretend we didn’t see the snow in the forecast for tomorrow night and continue to dream about the blue skies, sunshine, and tulips in bloom. The weather seems to be shaping our days (or is it our moods?) wayyy more than usual during this time, but either way, our weekend plans are usually the same - work on projects around the house ;) That said, here are a few other things on our radar this weekend:

Mother’s Day Brunch: We’re sure there will be many a delicious brunch prepared at home this weekend, but if you’re not in the mood to cook, a few local favorites are offering brunch to-go options - check out Morgan and Company (dreaming about their coffee cake), farmacy (hellooo brioche french toast!), and Rachel’s Cafe and Spice Company (cinnamon rolls to go - yes please).

Quarantine Cocktails: All this staying at home stuff has us eager to get a little more creative with drinks at home, and we just saw that Doc’s Restaurant has started a Cocktail Series on Facebook and Instagram where they share recipes for classic and craft cocktails a couple times a week. We can’t wait to whip up The Paloma this weekend - check out their recipe here!

For Mom, of course: Shopping small is more important than ever, so here are just a few ideas from local shops (offering curbside pickup!) that we stumbled across while perusing Instagram:

• Beekman 1802 Hand Cream or Soap from Rude Betty in Glens Falls

• A book (or a puzzle) from Battenkill Books in Cambridge

• Artwork by local artists from LARAC - click here to view the works on Facebook and coordinate your purchase

• All things Patagonia from Fountain Square Outfitters in Glens Falls

• French Macarons from Alchemy Bagel in Glens Falls (order before 8pm on Thursday night!)

• Tulips from Lot 32 Flower Farm in Greenwich (message them on IG to arrange for pickup or pick them up at Country Power Products in Greenwich)

Everything and Nothing: Color a #colorglensfalls coloring page (download all four for free here!), catch up on watching The Wood Theater’s Virtual Talent Show (watch here - so many great entries!), read a book (I’m (Bri) just finishing this one), build a window box for summer flowers.

Lastly, Happy Mother’s Day! Sending warm wishes to all the moms, soon-to-be moms, hopefully someday moms, dog moms, cat moms, and all the special ladies in between.

Have a great weekend,
Bri + Tom

P.S. Did you catch the first edition of Hometown News with our new contributor Gordon Woodworth this week? Find out the latest from Glens Falls Hospital, what next steps are with the school districts (and graduations!) and more - read it here.

The Weekender: May 1 - 3

Happy weekend! We did a double take when looking at the dates for this post - it’s MAY! As chaotic as the world is right now, seeing everything come into bloom over the past week has been strangely comforting. Green buds on the trees, tulips popping up downtown, and even a 60+ degree day - it’s been a spirit lifter, for sure. The weather app says sunshine and warm weather for this weekend, so we hope you’re able to get out (you know, to your porch or backyard) and enjoy it. Here are a few things that are on our radar:

Margaritas, Chips + Guac: Cinco de Mayo is Tuesday, and there couldn’t be a better day for one of our downtown favorites, Raul’s, to re-open for take-out. We have a sneaking suspicion that their phone will be ringing off the hook! Follow them here for the latest on their updated hours and how to order.

Whiskey Spritz: Did you catch our Happy Hour with [farmacy] last week? Jon shared a quick and easy recipe for a Whiskey Spritz, and all of a sudden we’re inspired to take our at home cocktail game up a notch. If you’re in the mood for a drink this weekend, give it a try - watch here.

Face Masks: Who would’ve thought a couple months ago that I’d be browsing the internet for cute face masks? MinkyMink has you covered (pun intended) and it looks like they’re getting a re-stock in this week. Grab the details here!

All Things Garden: One of our Washington County favorites, Gardenworks, is re-opening this weekend (with safety in mind!), and their plant list has us even more inspired to get started on our backyard garden. Check out what they have in stock and see all of their details here.

Online Classes: I know, who in their right mind is thinking about classes right now? Staying at home will do that to you ;) SUNY Adirondack Continuing Ed is offering 10 free online classes for professional development, and since we’re always looking for the latest and greatest tips, we can’t wait to check a few of them out (especially those geared toward small businesses!). Find them here.

Enjoy the weekend, and stay well -
Bri + Tom

P.S. In case you missed it, we checked in with both Lisa Camp and Tricia Rogers this week - find them here.

The Weekender: April 24-26

Happy Thursday! We’re back with another exciting edition of The Weekender, live from the living room. We’ve had to get a little more creative with our weekend activities these days, but we came up with a few good ones (or at least we think so) - watch or read the summary below! What are you up to this weekend?

#ColorGlensFalls Coloring Sheets: The most relaxing activity of the week. Download here!

Gardening: We planted pansies this week, and if you’re up for adding a little color to your porch too, Binley’s and Garden Time both look to have a great selection (and a safe shopping / pick-up experience, too!).

Yard Work: We’re still raking. Also, PSA: the city is only picking up bagged yard waste until social distancing / staff reductions change. Follow them on IG for these types of announcements.

Call your Grandma: Or your Grandpa, your Aunt, your long lost pal - call someone you haven’t called in a while. Tell them you’re thinking of them. You’ll feel better after, promise.

Enjoy the weekend, and stay well -
Bri + Tom

The Weekender: April 17-19

Happy weekend! Hope you’re all hanging in there. We’re coming at you live from the living room to chat about what we’re up to this weekend and hopefully give you some inspiration, too - watch below!

Have a nice weekend,

The Weekender: April 10 - 12

It’s Thursday (just in case you needed reminding like we did!), and although it’ll be a little different this year, we’re looking forward to the Easter weekend ahead just the same. We’re popping in to share a few ideas for your agenda this weekend, and despite the heaviness and uncertainty around us, we’re hoping you can enjoy the weekend connecting with loved ones (virtually!), celebrating the little things, and maybe indulging in a jelly bean or two :)

Farmers Market: We’re so grateful for the essential workers keeping food stocked at our local grocery stores and farmers markets, and we’re hoping to pop in to the Glens Falls Farmers Market this weekend - yes, they’re still open! They’ve moved outside to the Sanford Street School parking lot and have put measures into place to ensure social distancing. Some farmers have even added the option for an online pre-order, so that you can get in and out quickly (grab the details on their Facebook page).

Gardening: Well, I’ll tell you one thing, our desire to have a garden has grown about 1000% since all of this started. We were excited to see that Garden Time in Queensbury is open and offering the option to call ahead with your order and they’ll coordinate a no-contact pick up (check out the details here) - can’t wait to pick up some goods to start our veggie garden. In the mean time, I’m studying every page of this beautiful book to grab all of the tips for this summer’s flower garden.

Easter Brunch + Dinner: We’re going to miss getting together with our families for brunch so much this year, but we’re all planning to brunch together virtually on Sunday morning via Zoom (we’ll be making our favorite blueberry crumb cake - find that recipe here!). We’ve also seen some restaurants offering Easter dinner to-go (The Queensbury Hotel and Morgan and Company to name a couple). And by the way, you can check in on your other favorite local businesses here.

Stay well,
Bri + Tom

P.S. Did you catch our new series - Checkin’ In - this week? Watch it here!

The Weekender: March 27-29

Hope you’re all doing well! The Weekender is a bit different this week with social distancing, but we’re chatting about a few things we can all do while we’re home, and a few ways we can continue to support local businesses while we’re at it. We’d love to know how you’re keeping busy at home, too!

Read: We reached out on Instagram this week to crowdsource your favorite books, and you all came through in a big way. We shared a round-up of your favorites here, and would love to have your recommendations too - lots of page turning in our future!

Grab Take-Out or Delivery: We’re missing date night downtown for sure, but we’re so glad we can still support our favorites by grabbing dinner (and drinks!) to go. Check out our list of small business updates here for some of the latest on what local restaurants are offering, and make a night of it at home or get a little change of scenery with a (socially distanced!) tailgate picnic. And remember, gift cards are a great way to lend a hand.

Virtual Happy Hour: We’re missing spending time with family and friends, so we’ve been scheduling regular happy hours and chats via FaceTime and Zoom (and we’ve heard about the Houseparty app, too). Love the idea of doing virtual game nights - that’s next on our list!

Take Care of Yourself: To counteract the excessive baking and eating going on with this whole social distancing thing, we’re getting out for walks with the dogs more than usual and doing our best to get back into a fitness routine. We’ve loved seeing local businesses offering classes online (like Glens Falls Family YMCA , Yoga Kayla, Underwood Park CrossFit, and The Gym 518, to name a few!). Don’t forget mental health too - the anxiety of the news and social distancing can be tough. Take breaks from the news, get fresh air, call friends and family, meditate (try the Headspace app!), and don’t forget that (as Tom’s Gram used to say) - this too shall pass.

Take care and stay well, neighbors…
Tom + Bri

P.S. Glens Falls Hospital is looking for local businesses and individuals who might be able to donate supplies including N95 masks and other face masks and shields - grab the info here! Special thanks and gratitude to medical professionals and first-responders everywhere. Thank you!!

The Weekender: March 13 - 15

Hope you’ve had a great week! It’s been a bit of a crazy one, what with the random earthquake and of course, the spread of COVID-19. We're planning to hunker down with the pups as much as possible this weekend as more and more events get canceled and large gatherings continue to be discouraged. We're grateful for all those professionals who are in the midst of caring for and educating those who need it most. Compassion, awareness, and expertise is what we all need right now (and apparently, toilet paper?!). If you’re staying close to home too, here are a few ideas…

DATE NIGHT: If you’re not up for going out, lots of our favorites offer take out! And many local spots offer delivery through Door Dash, Grub Hub, etc. Another way to continue to support your favorite restaurant? Grab a gift card for a friend or family member - a nice way to keep the dollars moving for your favorites…and treat a loved one!

GAME NIGHT: It's been quite a while since I beat Tom at Yahtzee. Game on! And P.S. - what are some of your favorite games? We need to stock up!

A GOOD BOOK: A bit too much Netflix lately (we just binged the entire first five seasons of Schitt’s Creek!), so it’s time to catch up on a good read... I’m diving into Where the Crawdads Sing and Tom is finally going to get to that pile of This Old House and Hemmings Motor News Magazines he's been neglecting. 

PROJECTS: Tom's getting around to touching up some crown molding that's been waiting for paint and apparently I’ve been charged with cornering the dogs for their spring grooming... which is always an entertaining undertaking. What projects are you up to?

We hope you all have an amazing weekend and in case you're curious about the latest on COVID-19, here's a few trusted resources we turn to for answers: Glens Falls Hospital, Hudson Headwaters Health Network, NYS Department of Health, and the Centers for Disease Prevention.
