Today we came together as a community to honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to pay tribute to the courage of the first responders and the resilience of our nation. It was a solemn reminder of both the tragedy of that day and the strength we find when we stand united.

Barkley and I made it into this week’s City and State NY feature: “Political Pups and the Dog Parents Who Run New York”! 🐾🐶 Being a dog mom is one of my favorite titles (though being a human mom isn’t too shabby either 😄). Nothing brightens my day quite like some time with a four-legged friend.

On this day in 1848, the first Women’s Rights Convention was held in Seneca Falls—right in Central New York. This historic gathering sparked a national movement for women’s equality and civil rights. We honor the bold voices who demanded change and continue the fight for justice and equity today.
