Aaron is doing a great job of pushing speed differentiation and has said it is quarter miles intervals again this week. (I don't always run, but when I do, I listen to Aaron.) Also, thanks to MLB doing nicknames on their jerseys in a couple weekends for "players weekend", I now know what to order Aaron for Christmas!
The forecast is for high 70s and storms probably having passed through by TRY time, but keep an eye on the Doppler radar and choose wisely.
Assuming decent weather after TRY time you may want to consider a very unique outdoor movie venue. I went to the Amphitheater for movie night a couple weeks ago and it was very nice. Free parking (and you get rather close), free to get in and all they cared about was if you had glass containers. Bathrooms are open and there is a vendor or two selling ice cream and popcorn. But really it is a bring your own set up and you get to watch the movies on the auxiliary screens they use for concerts. They aren't huge, but there is always at least a couple in your sight line, and you can bring in whatever you need to make your night fun. (Drinks? A mistress? Your own children? Etc...) This is the third, and final, week for this summer "Moonlight Movie Series 2017". The 8 PM showing is "Sing" and the second feature is "This is Spinal Tap". (No word on whether Ron is willing to put it up to eleven for us for a night?)
Here are the simple details of these movie events from syracuse.com.
What else is about to happen in Geddes? Why the New York State Fair, of course! This year it opens with a preview day on Wednesday the 23rd (It will only $1 to get in on the preview Wednesday, so save your advance sale tickets for another day) and so will last one extra day. Unfortunately for me, my first wife is taking me out of town on a family vacation so I will have limited days where I can check it out. (I see that both Thursdays are only $3 to get in, so you don't need advance sale tickets for those days either.)
The highlights from what I can tell from a couple of the early articles (one and two):
There will be a chair lift down the middle of the fairway.
The west end (where the Chinese lantern festival was) will have things in it this year, including a floating tiki bar in the dragon lagoon. So that area should feel a lot less empty than it was last year.
The Indian village area got spruced up.
And several other minor upgrades...like moving the state police demonstration area and adding family recharge zones.
So, nothing as big as last year, but continuing to fancy up the place. I'll put a poll on the Facebook page for possible TRY nights at the Fair.
