Hey New York, it looks like we're about to be the only station going tuition free! So how could this affect you? Well, the Excelsior Scholarship, as they're calling it states that if you're a family that makes under $125,000 a year (which, um, is a lot of us, no?) then your student could be heading to a 4-year college tuition free!

Over the weekend, Jenn's mom and aunt came to visit. So we thought it was time to go to the Rivers Casino. I had asked a lot of people their opinion of the new casino and got mixed reviews, mostly negative so I was anxious to see for myself.

Growing up in the 518, there was always a sure sign that spring was finally here...soft ice cream stands. So last night, we officially welcomed in spring by having our first cone.

Big things are always happening in the Country world, but I also realize big things are always happening in your life, too, right? That's why Country in 60 exists!

Back in 2011, Waterford saw some of the worst flooding they've ever seen. It seemed like the flooding lasted forever! People were boating down through the village like it was the every day norm, homes were damaged, cars ruined and now all we have to recall that time are photos and videos that pop up here on the internet.

Anyone that has been a kid in the last, I don't know, 40 or 50 years (?!) you, I'm sure would head to Payless Shoes for your Easter Oxford Saddles. You know what I'm talking about, the white and black shoes that everyone just had to have. The reverse Oreo, if you will.

It's time for another Country In 60: Celebrity Edition. This time with up and comers: Walker McGuire. We had them with us Tuesday afternoon as they performed for our "Concert in a Cubicle" series. This one took place at a pediatrics office (I'm sure they'll never get to say that again!)

I've been told you have to be open to the unknown for you to experience any paranormal activity. But based on stories that have come from the Canfield Casino in Saratoga Springs, whether you believe or not, things happen. That's what brought SyFy's "Ghost Hunters" to the Capital Region in 2010 for the sixth season of their creepy show.

Last week I posted about a castle that went up for sale in Ballston Lake. Yes, a castle. It's actually been on the market for a bit, but I figured if I didn't know there was an actual castle in the Capital Region, you probably didn't either. Which, I was right - the post was shared hundreds of times!

When it comes to President Donald J. Trump there are many people, saying many things both positive and negative about him, his views and the moves he's made so far in the White House. There have been comparisons for months (years even?) of him having similarities to Hitler. But, the last thing you expect is for that viewpoint to wind up coming from the teachers at your children's school in a class

Nana calls me her "sunshine." If the sun is out, she says it's my doing. If it's not out, she asks, "Why didn't you bring the sunshine!?" She's your typical feisty, spunky, great sense of humor Grandmother and I'm so proud to call her mine.

I do it weekly, Country In 60. It's your chance to get caught up with the big Country music headlines of the week in 60 seconds! This week it was crazy to hear that Tim McGraw and Faith Hills daughter had a famous ghost friend when she was 4 years old.
