THE WORK
It’s the FRIDAY FIVE. This week, we’re featuring the dynamic duo behind the line dancing sensation Two Left Boots, Misty and Carley! Special thanks to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring fun stories like theirs to life each and every Friday in the FRIDAY FIVE!
If you’ve noticed line dancing making a big comeback here in Central New York, there’s a good chance Misty and Carley have something to do with it. Through Two Left Boots, they’re bringing people together, getting them out on the dance floor, and proving you don’t need to be a professional dancer to have a great time.
And what’s especially fun about these two is what they do when they’re not teaching people their next dance moves.
By day, Misty is helping people find their dream homes in real estate, while Carley splits her time between the Syracuse VA and the Air National Guard. But when the music starts, these two trade their busy schedules for cowboy boots and a dance floor full of people ready to have some fun.
As I got to know more about Misty and Carley while putting together this week’s FRIDAY FIVE, what stood out to me was their energy and passion for bringing people together. They’ve taken something they love and turned it into an experience that’s catching on across Central New York.
And if you’ve been wanting to give line dancing a try, here’s your chance! Two Left Boots will be at Beak & Skiff on November 19th, so mark your calendars and get ready to put those boots to work.
This week, get to know Misty and Carley, the personalities behind Two Left Boots, and what keeps these two moving.

Every fall it seems there are one or two days where even the slightest breeze sends the last remaining beautiful leaves floating to the ground. So lucky to have such amazing weather this fall to catch these moments in person. What a fall. Neighborhood shown is Strathmore in Syracuse‘s Southwest side. #upstateny #syracuseny #syracuse #fallvibes🍁 #strathmore
Syracuse University’s Hall of Languages looks straight out of The Addams Family… and there’s a reason for that!
The iconic building is said to have inspired the mansion in the original 1960s TV series. With its dramatic towers and unmistakable silhouette, it’s easy to picture Gomez and Morticia feeling right at home.
A little mysterious. A little spooky. All Syracuse.

These are the moments in Syracuse we lived through without ever knowing they were the last time. 😭 #nostalgia #syracuse #syracuseny #syracusehistory #upstateny
It gets no better than Taughannock Falls State Park in the fall… one of the most amazing, beautifully spiritual places I have truly ever visited…#taughannockfalls #iloveny #upstateny #nysparks #ithaca
So happy to see this beautiful downtown Syracuse venue come back to life @themizpahsyr FPV footage captured last fall #syracuse #syracuseny #upstateny #centralnewyork #cny
It’s the FRIDAY FIVE. This week, we’re featuring someone who has played a big role in shaping the heart of our city, Merike Treier, Executive Director of the Downtown Committee of Syracuse. Special thanks to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring inspiring stories like Merike’s to life each and every Friday in the FRIDAY FIVE!
Since joining the Downtown Committee in 2004, Merike has been a driving force behind efforts to make downtown Syracuse a more vibrant, welcoming, and exciting place to live, work, and visit.
From supporting local businesses and attracting new investment to organizing events that bring thousands of people downtown, Merike and her team play an important role in the continued growth and revitalization of our city’s center.
As someone who spends a lot of time capturing Syracuse from above, I’ve had a front-row seat to the changes happening downtown. And I have a real appreciation for the people working behind the scenes to make those changes possible. Merike is certainly one of them.
What I appreciate about Merike’s work is that building a stronger downtown isn’t just about buildings and businesses. It’s about creating a place where people want to spend time, connect, and feel proud of their city.
This week, get to know Merike Treier, the person helping shape the future of downtown Syracuse, and what inspires her.

One of my favorite waterfalls in all of Upstate New York: Chittenango Falls at Chittenango Falls State Park #waterfalls #upstatenewyork #fallvibes🍁 #chittenangofalls #iloveny
A beautiful song for a beautiful morning flying over historic Tipperary Hill in Syracuse, NY. Hard to beat these final days of fall with this amazing foliage high above such a historic neighborhood. #tipphill #tipperaryhill #syracuse #upstateny #syracuseny
The “orb” at Green Lakes State Park…otherwise known as Round Lake… the lesser known of the two lakes, but just as beautiful in the fall! I took this picture with my Drone years ago and it still continues to be one of my favorite posts at this beautiful park. #fallvibes #upstateny #syracuse #syracuseny #greenlakes
Perched high above the Strathmore neighborhood in Syracuse looking northeast through the southside heading towards downtown. Shown in the picture is Most Holy Rosary church and school. These views are so fleeting, but they are so beautiful and stay with you the entire year. #syracuse #upstateny #fallvibes #syracuseny #leafpeeping
Grab the kids and drive by 208 Twin Hills Drive in Syracuse for one of the spookiest, most creative skeleton displays I’ve ever seen! This city and neighborhood shows up for Halloween! 🎃 ☠️ #syracuse #spookyscaryskeletons #halloween🎃👻 #straghmore #syracuseny
It’s hard to find a more beautiful park this time of year than the Upper Onondaga Park in Syracuse’s Strathmore neighborhood. This video captured the scene a couple of years ago around this time of year. One of my all-time favorite shots of this park. #upstateny #syracuseny #syracuse #fallvibes🍁 #fallfoliage🍂🍁
Syracuse’s craziest fall tree is at the intersection of Wellesley Road and Glenwood Avenue. Seeing it with the drone only confirms how unique it is. Surrounded by thousands of other trees and not a single one like it. Go take a look before it’s too late! Drone footage from last night. #fallvibes🍁 #upstateny #syracuse #centralnewyork #syracuseny
Remember when Taughannock Falls was lit up at night back in 2024?! Yep…to celebrate 100 years of New York State Parks, the 215-foot waterfall was illuminated for a few nights, and it was breathtaking! I was lucky enough to be invited to capture it from above and even got special permission to fly my drone. Talk about a night I won’t forget!
