capital region

I along with pretty much everyone in the Capital Region have heard of Howe Caverns, been there quite a few times. I never knew about this set of caverns though.

Yesterday some areas of the Capital Region saw some pretty extreme conditions appear. Did you encounter any of it?

Walmart has joined Hannaford, Price Chopper and Shop Rite in offering the online service.

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

Imagine growing up locally during the Great Depression; segregation; when the Capital Region was mainly farmland and 5 & 10 stores. My Nana, who turns 85 officially on May 10th has lived here almost her entire life. Growing up, meeting her husband, raising a family of 4-children and so on, it all happened here.

Celebrating our educators is a must and today Chipotle is doing just that by giving a great offer to our teachers! Today from 3pm-close they are giving educators the opportunity of a buy one/get one deal on burritos, bowls, salads or orders of tacos!

Spring has sprung and back road driving time is officially here. What are some of your favorite roads to cruise on? Here are some of mine.

As the weather starts getting warmer and the swim suits are broken out, it's time to figure out which beach in the area is the best one.

Now, this leaves me asking one huge question. Is New York City counted? Either way we have one town with a lot of awesome pizza!

All across New York state volunteer fire departments will be open this weekend in efforts to recruit new members.  Much of the state relies on volunteers to staff their fire houses. Do you have what it takes?

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.

In the winter of 2008, we had one heck of an ice storm that hit the Capital Region! Power was out in the majority of the surrounding area and not just for a couple hours, but for some weeks. You were thankful to know someone with a generator and that, maybe the Subway down the street was able to whip up some sandwiches for the family.
