THE WORK
It’s the FRIDAY FIVE! SWIPE ⬅️ to learn the FIVE THINGS that inspire Robert Searing, Curator of History at the Onondaga Historical Association. Special thanks to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring important stories like Bob’s to life each and every week in the FRIDAY FIVE!
If you love Syracuse history, chances are you’ve come across Bob’s work. Whether through his weekly columns in Syracuse.com and The Post-Standard, his “Repeating History” podcast on WCNY, or one of the many museums he helps oversee through the Onondaga Historical Association, Bob has a gift for making history feel relevant, accessible, and alive.
What I admire most about Bob is his passion for preserving and sharing the stories that make our community unique. Under his leadership, OHA has expanded its reach through destinations like the Regional Aviation History Museum, the Brewseum, the Onondaga Veterans Museum, and the Skä•noñh Great Law of Peace Center. He reminds us that understanding where we’ve been helps us better appreciate where we’re going. These are the FIVE THINGS that inspire him.
Special thanks to Bob for participating in this week’s FRIDAY FIVE and to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring important stories like Bob’s to life each and every week in the FRIDAY FIVE!
P.S. Tag someone you’d like to see in a future FRIDAY FIVE.

Coleman’s Irish Pub Summer Block Party is EVERYTHING a Syracuse summer evening should be.
Live music. Great drinks. Good friends. A packed crowd. And a sunset that looked even better from above.
THIS is why I love Syracuse and why I love capturing it with my drone. There’s something special about seeing the energy of historic Tipperary Hill from the air, and few places bring people together quite like Coleman’s.
The best part? You don’t have to wait for the next one.
The Summer Block Party Series continues TONIGHT from 7PM–10PM under the Pavilion with live music from Dark Hollow.
Hope to see you on the Hill.

Let’s be real…it may not have been pretty, BUT the @tasteofsyracuse is BACK this FRIDAY and SATURDAY (and thank God!). It’s one of my favorite events and one of our biggest “roll out the carpet” events for downtown.
Taste of Syracuse returns to Downtown Syracuse this Friday and Saturday, June 5 & 6, filling Clinton Square and the surrounding streets with incredible local food, live music, and the chance to sample dishes from dozens of vendors for just $2.
Come hungry, bring your friends, and experience the flavors that make Central New York so unique.

SWIPE ⬅️ Well... here we are again.
Turns out when you’ve spent years flying a drone around Central New York, narrowing down your favorite views is nearly impossible.
So welcome to Part 3 of the Syracuse Lookbook.
A few more scenes that have earned a permanent spot in my camera roll. Some are landmarks. Some are hidden gems. Some just happened to catch the right light at the right moment.
No matter how many places I visit, these views always remind me how special this corner of New York really is.
Which one are you stopping on this time?

One of my favorite things about this time of year in Upstate New York...
From now until the end of August, the sun won’t set before 8 PM.
That’s nearly three months of long evenings, golden light, after-dinner adventures, and the feeling that the day still has plenty left to give.
Summer in Upstate New York really is something special. Make the most of every sunset.

SWIPE ⬅️ Apparently I have a problem.
After yesterday’s Syracuse Lookbook, I realized there was no way I was fitting all of my favorite aerial views into a single post.
So here’s Part 2.
A few more views that have stuck with me over the years while exploring Central New York from above. Some are well known. Some are easy to overlook. All of them remind me just how lucky we are to call this place home.
Which one gets your vote this time around?

SWIPE ⬅️ People ask me all the time what my FAVORITE view in Syracuse is.
Honestly? I can never pick just ONE.
One day it’s a sunrise over downtown. The next it’s Green Lakes, Onondaga Lake, the University Hill skyline, or some random neighborhood that looks incredible from 400 feet up.
So rather than try to choose, I pulled together a few favorites for this edition of my Syracuse Lookbook.
These are the views that make me grateful to spend so much time exploring Central New York from above.
Curious... which one are you picking?

It’s the FRIDAY FIVE! SWIPE ⬅️ to learn the FIVE THINGS that inspire Sarah Pelligrini, owner of @noblecellar in downtown Syracuse. Special thanks to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring stories like Sarah’s to life each and every week with the FRIDAY FIVE!
Sarah is one of those people who sees possibility where others see obstacles. Over the past two decades, she has built a remarkable career spanning real estate, hospitality, business development, coaching, and community building. From helping more than 600 families navigate the home buying process, to coaching business owners across the country, to co-founding @noblecellar and helping transform it into one of the most celebrated restaurants in the region, earning recognition from Wine Spectator and the prestigious DiRōNA Award, Sarah has a rare ability to turn vision into reality.
What I admire most is that every chapter of her journey seems connected by the same belief: great things happen when you invest in people. Whether she’s advising clients, building businesses, or helping shape the future of our community, Sarah leads with both heart and intention. These are the FIVE THINGS that inspire her.

So many beautiful neighborhoods around us in Syracuse and Central New York. And if you think not, you’re not looking closely enough. #upstateny #syracuseny #syracuse #centralnewyork #america
Warm nights like tonight make me dream of WHAT IF…what if the @syracusemets decided to have built their baseball stadium downtown? There was a plan to do so at one point…can you imagine? #syracuse #baseball #upstateny #mets #downtown
If Syracuse had a vibe during the summer, THIS would be it 💯can’t wait for the warmer weather to settle in for good! #syracuseny #syracuse #upstateny #centralnewyork #summervibes☀️
Today I visited the Onondaga County Veterans Memorial Cemetery for Memorial Day. The cemetery looked beautiful overall…flags at every gravesite, well-kept grounds, and a clear sense of honor and respect for the veterans laid to rest there.
One smaller, newer section appeared to have taken the brunt of all the recent rain, and it was difficult seeing some gravesites affected by flooding. Hoping the County is able to address the drainage issues in that area as conditions improve.
Grateful to everyone who helps maintain and care for this sacred place of remembrance.

For years, the CNY Watchfire was one of the most meaningful Memorial Day weekend traditions in Central New York. Families, veterans, and entire communities gathered at the Fairgrounds to honor the fallen, remember the missing, and reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day.
When the Watchfire was paused a couple of years ago, many people were unsure if it would ever return. Memorial Day weekend just did not feel the same without it. But even while the flames were gone, the memories and meaning behind the tradition never faded.
Now, there is finally hope for 2027. A new committee is working to bring the Watchfire back and create a permanent future for an event that has meant so much to so many across CNY.
Some traditions deserve to keep burning. 🔥🇺🇸❤️

As EMS Week comes to a close, we wanted to say THANK YOU to the incredible EMS professionals serving Syracuse and the surrounding communities.
This week, I had the chance to spend time with these teams in between calls, long shifts, and nonstop responsibilities. What stood out to me most was the professionalism, dedication, and genuine love they have for what they do. It’s unbelievable to see it in action.
Behind every siren is a team of people making sacrifices most of us never see. Long hours. Missed time with family. Holidays. Sleepless nights. All to make sure the rest of us are safe 24/7, 365 days a year.
It was inspiring to see how these organizations work together as one EMS family for the good of our community.
Special thanks to Heather Drake Bianchi from Drakos Urgent Care for putting EMS Week on my radar, sharing its importance, and connecting me with these outstanding teams:
• EAVES Ambulance
• North Area Volunteer Ambulance Corp (NAVAC)
• American Medical Response of Central New York (AMR)
• Syracuse Fire Department
These certainly aren’t all of the organizations that support this important group day in a day out, so thank you to ALL of the organizations doing their part each and every day on the front lines and behind the scenes.
Thank you for everything you do for all of us.

It’s the FRIDAY FIVE! SWIPE ⬅️ to learn the FIVE THINGS that inspire Sam and Sara from The Barking Orange doggy daycare here in Syracuse. Special thanks to our friends at @CrouseHealth for helping bring stories like these to life each and every week with the FRIDAY FIVE!
This one is especially fun because Sam and Sara are just awesome people who genuinely love dogs and treat every pup like family. From the moment you meet them, you can feel how much heart they put into what they do.
One fun little detail that says a lot about who they are: The Barking Orange has webcams that stream twice daily for a couple hours each morning and afternoon so owners can check in on their dogs throughout the day. It’s such a thoughtful touch, and just another example of how much they care.
Thank you to Sam and Sara for participating in this week’s FRIDAY FIVE, and thank you again to @CrouseHealth for helping bring important stories like theirs to life each and every week.
P.S. Tag someone you’d like to see in a future FRIDAY FIVE.
