I know some of my southern family and friends might not think that Glens Falls is my home town, but after about twenty years of living in Queensbury, I think I should call this HOME.

Yeah I said Queensbury and not Glens Falls; just a little history lesson on the area. Glens Falls, until 1908, was a village in the Town of Queensbury. After 1908, it became a City and a separate municipal government (yeah we have a lot of municipal governments around here).Since Glens Falls was the village in the Town of Queensbury, and since Queensbury doesn’t have a “downtown” (are you following me?); Glens Falls is my downtown! Oh! Queensbury’s population, at about 28,000, is more than double that of the City of Glens Falls. Go Figure!
