It’s Gonna Be HOT This Weekend – 5 Things To Do Outside in the Capital Region
With temperatures soaring into the 90's by Sunday, it seems like Summer may officially be here before the actual "official" date. Personally, I'm so ready for it! After all of the rain and all of the on-again, off-again temperature changes that make the Ross/Rachel relationship of Friends in the early 2000's seem pretty steady, I'm desperate for the heat!
Now that we are looking at a stretch of beautiful weather, starting with this weekend, it's time to get out and enjoy what the Capital Region has to offer. Are you as ready as I am?!
