Anything to do there on a saturday afternoon in the summer? I haven't been there in years but it looks like I have half a day to kill this week. Any help is appreciated.

Where are ya staying? My brother goes to school there and is now attending grad school. He says check out the Moon Shadow's Tavern if you want a good bar around Cornell.

Haha, the town is predominantly geared toward college kids these days, but I'd definitely check out anything that might be going on at Cornell, unfortunately I won't be up until the 23rd, otherwise we may have been able to hit the ice. Otherwise, there are a ton of vineyards in the area if you're a wine guy, as far as food is concerned there are a ton of good restaurants in the area, Maxie's supper club is great if you're into seafood/cajun fusion, and John Thomas Steakhouse (albeit pricey) is worth checking out as well. Other than that, Lake Cayuga is decent for fishing/boating, or you could play a round of golf at Cornell if time permits. The bar scene is pretty non-existent at this time of year, although Ruloff's on college ave is a good spot for beer and wings. Shoot me a PM if you need some more ideas.

I'm stuck downtown near Cayuga and Green.

Definitely check out maxie's for lunch then, the raw bar is pretty awesome there if thats your into it. Otherwise there is essentially just hippies and some solid restaurants down there.

As they say, Ithaca is Gorges...

Between the hippies and hipsters this place needs to be burned down. I really don't get the unabomber hoodie and dark glasses thing when it's almost 80 degrees. Killed a bit of time at the guitar shop but the rest of the day is a waste.
