Chef Deanna said this was her first time occupying the space just outside the Overpass Fest. Despite the distance from the event, which was maybe 500 feet or more, we give her kudos for making a nearly flawless jalapeno lemonade (a little bit savory and little bit sweet). In our opinion, she was a few sample cups away from selling out and or having her concoction become the official summer beverage of the Creekwalk.

Props to Syracuse’s favorite sartorial artist Michael Heagerty for organizing the Over/Under Fest along Onondaga Creek this evening. He is pictured here recording one of the performing musicians. Props also for rocking the 100 % paper hat with adjustable leather strap, and of course, his vintage wheels.

Duck Season

A great day for a duck race: Syracuse Inner Harbor

Louisville, KY may have the Derby, but in Syracuse we have the Duck Race.

Here are some photographs from today’s 13th Annual Duck Race to end Racism, sponsored by Interfaith Works. The event took place at the Inner Harbor Pavilion; the race started at the Kirkpatrick entrance of Onondaga Creek.

NoExcuses Michael Heagerty led a Conga Line by the creek on Monday afternoon.

NoExcuses’ Michael Heagerty put on his dancing shoes and led a Conga Line by the creek on Monday afternoon.

Unusually warm, fall weather and the Columbus Day holiday provided a great mix for creating the longest Conga line to ever groove past Onondaga Creek (near the Inner Harbor) yesterday. This was the first of a series of pop-up events by the group PlayedOut Syracuse!
