Things go bump in the night and in the day sometimes according to the current and previous governors of New York. In an interview with the AP last Thursday, Governor Cuomo admitted that he believes there may be ghosts in his Albany residence.

This weekend is all about Mom. But you knew that already, didn't you? Oh?! I reminded you! Well, it's a good thing, don't ya think?! Mom is important! Something perfect to do with Mom this Mothers Day Weekend is happening right in our very own backyard: the 69th Annual Tulip Festival in Albany's Washington Park! Plus GNA will be hanging out on Sunday!

Given how this situation shook our community back in November, I'm surprised by the outcome from Friday when the jury came back after deliberating.

Matt Baumgartner has assured us that even though he's selling his Bombers Burrito Bar restaurants, they will not be changing. I'm holding him to that.

Orkin recently put together the top 50 worst cites for mosquitoes, Albany should maybe break out a citronella candle or five.

It is one of the biggest tours of the year, and Tim and Faith announced their Soul2Soul 2017 World Tour will be coming to the Times Union Center!

Tasheem Maeweather. The name might sound familiar for some and ingrained in the brain of others who were at Crossgates Mall back in November when gunfire rang out. Maeweather, the alleged shooter wasn't in custody until a couple of days after the shooting which left people concerned that danger was still looming. In December Maeweather was sentenced to 9-years in state prison by Judge Peter Lynch

I always love when cities and towns get creative by showcasing what they are known for. The Business Improvement District of Albany is getting creative by using the famous Nipper the dog for a project called "Downtown Is Pawsome".

It's another best of list where Albany ranks near the top!

Is the Capital Region really appealing after all? I mean think about some of the celebs that have been spotted as of late.

I pass this old dilapidated buidling almost every day while traveling on 787 and it grabs my attention in the way a bad accident would.  I can't "not" look at it. Why hasn't it been torn down?

I've lived in the Capital Region my whole life. I'm only 28 so even though I've noticed some changes to the city of Albany in that time, I love what the Albany Institute is doing to bring us back into history to see what Albany looked like 170 years ago.
