Let’s hope we never go through this again, but if we do, we’ll remember the words of Stephen Schwartz: We were changed for the better. One local hospital’s Ray of light, backwoods rescuers making masks for front-liners, the clap, clatter and songs of gratitude heard ‘round the world, bar and bistro bingo in Troy, a small village that raises giants, and “Tom Brady” is found under a bridge in Central New York.

As Bill Withers might have said, this week please lean on us. In place of handshakes and hugs, we raise our hands to cheer for local companies in the vanguard of the fight against COVID-19 and keeping people healthy, for courageous nurses, caring farmers, postal workers and delivery people; for campaigns to keep beauty alive, freelancers working, a wining cheese, a celebrity donut, and two high school choruses staging a spectacular virtual concert.

What a week, friends. We’d like to give you a few minutes to relax. Here, pull up a chair, one of Harry Bunnell’s best. Remember to wash your hands, of course. We recommend Great Meadow Fresh, the Big House wash. Size up the truly impressive leader of New York’s response to the coronavirus. We’ll look ahead to the sweetest season of all, and is that a DiMaggio pitching for the Red Sox? It’s all in The Week: What Caught Our Eye.The Week: What Caught Our Eye

We’ll look at the most meaningful basket in the history of University of Vermont basketball – and how the University of Albany helped make it happen. We’ll take stock of the blockbuster summer taking shape at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, the Adirondack retreat Stanley Tools built, the toughest step of all for Disney’s Bob Iger, nightly dinners with two comics for the ages, and we remember the boy voted noisiest in high school class, Jack Welch.
