I wanted to offer you and yours my best wishes for a happy Thanksgiving, and a deeply felt thank you for all you do for Huletts Landing.
Hopefully, your day will be filled with love and lots of good food. May you enjoy a happy and blessed day of rest and gratitude. Happy Thanksgiving with some fun mixed in also!
In light of the COVID-19 National Emergency, the Huletts Casino will remain closed for the rest of 2020.
Someday we will be through this. Until then, keep living “your best life” with purpose.
As regular readers of the Huletts Current know, I love posting “fish” pictures, even though I am not a fisherman. This picture really made me smile because the children’s joy really shines through.
I know many are experiencing real worry and suffering with the COVID-19 national pandemic, but choose to be optimistic. Live your best life, RIGHT NOW, seize the moment, enjoy the day.
Do not fueled by fear. Be strong right now; be happy right now; go out and enjoy the summer. Be safe but don’t sit in a socially distant box and complain about all things that are not right, or might not be right. Go out and talk to a neighbor, make a visitor feel welcome. Do something positive. Send me a (fish) picture.
I received an email yesterday from a family who spent a week in Huletts, and when they returned home their small son wouldn’t go to sleep because he wanted to go back to his “Lake George bed.”
Be thankful for the blessings of your time on Lake George this summer, carry an optimistic spirit. Be people of hope in these times.
So many thanks to the children in the picture above, with their smiles and their big fish – they have chosen to enjoy the blessings of summer and their time on Lake George. For that we should all be grateful.
A new “carry-out” window has replaced the old window in the front of the Soda Fountain. It will be painted soon.
Parents your children will be happy! The Soda Fountain is scheduled to open for “carry out” service from the front window starting on June 27th. There will be no seating inside as of this time, but you will be able to go for a walk and stop for some ice cream on your evening stroll. Plan on coming a bit earlier and staying six feet apart, but the children will leave happy.

In light of the COVID-19 National Emergency, the Huletts Casino will be closed through at least June 15th. It will not be open for the Memorial Day weekend.
Hopefully, we will be through this storm soon.

I Watched a Blackbird
By Thomas Hardy
I watched a blackbird on a budding sycamore
One Easter Day, when sap was stirring twigs to the core;
I saw his tongue, and crocus-coloured bill
Parting and closing as he turned his trill;
Then he flew down, seized on a stem of hay,
And upped to where his building scheme was under way,
As if so sure a nest was never shaped on spray.
