outdoors

It's beautiful outside and you're probably looking for a way to enjoy it. At first, I thought this was just a one-week event but throughout the spring, spend some time outside with friends and explore what Albany has to offer.

Did you miss out on the free fishing days this past weekend? No worries, more are planned later this year.

With temperatures soaring into the 90's by Sunday, it seems like Summer may officially be here before the actual "official" date. Personally, I'm so ready for it! After all of the rain and all of the on-again, off-again temperature changes that make the Ross/Rachel relationship of Friends in the early 2000's seem pretty steady, I'm desperate for the heat!

Thank you, Field & Stream for taking over such a large space in Latham Farms plaza! I can't even begin to explain the feelings I had when I heard Wal-Mart was going to be moving from their newly renovated Latham Farms location to head to the former home of Latham Circle Mall.

One of my favorite things to do is grab the tent and sleeping bags and head out into the wilderness for a relaxing weekend. If this is your idea of a great getaway, here are 4 great Upstate NY campsites you need to visit!

There is so much to do and so much fun to be had as soon as that warm weather kicks into full gear here in the Capital Region.

As part of a campaign to show what New York state has to offer with outdoor activities, this Saturday and Sunday (June 28 & 29) will be Free Fishing Days.

Richie Phillips (from The Sean And Richie Show on WGNA) posted a new feature that he’s calling “Clue Me In”.

This is the time of year when we could have a 90 degree day one day, followed by a day with 30 degrees and snow. (I’m just kidding about the snow.)

For some it's the best time of the year - hunting season has arrived in the Albany area. Ready to brag about your trophy? Send us your photos to show everyone how well you've done this hunting season in the woods, fields, duck blinds, ponds, streams, and lakes. From your tree stand to our photo wall, your fishing boat to our gallery.

It’s summertime, and that means most of the kids are on summer vacation from school.

Summer 2012 starts on June 20. It's also known as the Summer Solstice.
