Hi! It’s my goal this summer to make more local friends (I have a solid friend group but they all require a drive to hang out with). I love trivia and am pretty good at it and wanted to see if any teams would be interested in having another join their group. Playing trivia solo is not as fun. I’m also open to other suggestions to make friends. Me: F, 40s, single, no kids.
Let's say you're moving out of state and want to hit the highlights. Or just the dishes you'll miss the most.
A cocktail/wine/beer, an appetizer, an entree, and a dessert BUT they don't have to be from the same place.
Like:
Cocktail - Chai Pear Sour at Back Bar
App - Brussels sprouts at Hootch
Entree - Filet at Tasting Room
Dessert - Tiramisu and an Affogato at Pistarro's
What I wish I could bring back from the dead to have one last time is the grilled cheese at Firestone's.
If you’re planning to use the road near Rita’s Italian Ice 😅
Hi folks! Mom with small kids here. I had to flee my home for a hotel last night. I'm watching the restoration reports like a hawk, and it seems like they worked tirelessly overnight to make things better! I just can't tell if my part of Middletown is back yet. I'm right by south mountain creamery. Any insight?
buscando lugares para ver el partido hoy, me parece que los restaurantes mexicanos/latinos cerrarán demasiado temprano pero tal vez hay algún que quedara abierto para verlo?
My kid and I went to the All Saints St parking garage to watch the fireworks. You could see all the fireworks from the surrounding areas and towns. Fireworks were going off before the Frederick fireworks started. Really cool to watch. 9:30 comes, the Frederick fireworks start, and it was only 10 MINUTES!! WHAT THE HECK!! Everyone was looking at each other, with the look of... Is that it? And fireworks were still going off in the surrounding towns and areas after the Frederick fireworks stopped. The 250th birthday of our county and a 10 minute firework display. Once again, the city of Frederick has failed us again. What a huge let down and disappointment.
Please. Pretty please. With sugar on top. Stop with the fireworks.
Couple seen walking their panting dog through 4th of July celebrations at baker park. Dog was on asphalt which was too hot to touch.
When asked if they understood how ridiculous having their dog outside without water was, I was told their lawyer would be contacting me? Absolutely brutal for the dog, we didn’t last an hour down there today.
Yes I know taking pictures of people is frowned upon, so faces blurred.
Picture was 30 mins after seeing them initially near the band shell.
Just left Golden Corral today July 4th at 12:02pm and to the elderly woman who left your dog in a cage, in your vehicle with today's temps, you should be ashamed of yourself. If your mother owns larger breed grey dog with white eyes and drives this vehicle, you should probably rescue the dog before she pulls another stupid move like leaving it in a car with the windows up on a near 100 degree day. Animal control came, police showed up after the lady didnt come to the announcements being made by restaurant staff regarding her vehicle and Animal Control needing to speak to the owner. Finally the lady finished eating her lunch and returned to her car where she was met by both Animal Control and Police. Animal control did not take the dog. Police were shocked.

UPDATE
Just spoke to animal control regarding an update to this situation! They said that the police have the jurisdiction to remove the dog (Great Dane) from the owner in today's situation but the officers who showed up did not deem the dog in distress enough to remove said dog. The dog was inside a cage in the back of a mini van with the side door open while owner ate lunch. 97+ while a great dane sits in a cage in the back of a mini van doesnt mean animal is in distress. What a fumble by law enforcement.
Learn something new every day!
Alguém sabe de algum lugar em Frederick pra assistir o jogo do Brasil hoje?
Não sei se tem algum lugar onde os brasileiros aparecem em peso!
Just thought it was cool, never seen something like this before!
Chime in if your power is down.
Fire on the sidewalk on butterfly lane tonight, and traffic stopped. Lived here 33 years and this has never happened before. Fucking ridiculous

Was going to head over around 5 but not sure I want to be walking around for hours in this heat.
curious if the fireworks are still happening or if rain has officially killed the chances
currently on the hunt for old common cards. I know of all the popular stores (cartridges galore, black sun, tournament city etc.) but all of their bulk is from fairly recent releases. are there any other hidden gems that are nearby? preferably pre scarlet / violet but at this point if the store has lots of bulk, I’m willing to dig through it lolol. tia!
I previously went to the South Mountain location downtown, but since they’ve closed I haven’t found another spot to get their Snallygaster Ice Cream.
I was looking online and found a few spots that have their products, but they don’t tell you what each location carries.
Has anyone seen Snallygaster at a local store?
Any produce stands seen in 2026? They are now few and far between. Looking for tomatoes specifically, but open to all stands for variety. Thank you.
My mother in law is visiting, and she came during this heat wave. We have a four month year old so being outside is not really an option. Other than shopping I’m looking for any recommendations for things we can do around Frederick during the heat wave?
