memorial day

This weekend, it's time to get out and about and enjoy the 3-day weekend right here in the Capital Region.

As this holiday weekend comes to a close I got to thinking about all the grilling that was done in our area. I know we have been grilling like it's our job at my house. With all that grilling going on , you can only imagine that there also has to be quite a bit of BBQ fails out there as well.

We are a patriotic country and should be. We in America have a proud history of freedom and democracy, but that history is also filled with men and women who sacrificed so much for an ideal.

Dierks Bentley is helping 'GNA honor the men and women who died fighting for our freedom with a Memorial Day special on 107.7 Monday morning.

Taste of Country Music Festival headliner and overall good guy Brad Paisley went way out of his way to honor the troops over Memorial Day weekend.  He flew to Afghanistan for a surprise visit to Bagram Air Base where he played an hour-long acoustic set for about 3,000 U.S. troops!

Time for you veterans to get some "payback" for all you've done this Memorial Day and Warriors in the Workplace organization is just the group to provide it
