schenectady

This was a two pronged reason for going to Schenectady this past Sunday.  First I was walking around while waiting for Dorrie to get something that she forgot at her place of work, and it gave me an opportunity to try out the camera on the iPhone 6s to see if it lives up to the hype.  So here we go

What a great group. These kids were ROCKIN'!   Well, what else would you expect from Mrs Toher's classes?  Another great experience at Yates Elementary School  in Schenectady

Quickly becoming one of my favorite websites, Roadsnacks.net has analyzed 434 towns and cities in New York and published a top ten list of the New York cities that are most likely to cheat. The Capital Region has 2 cities on the list. Actually 2 in the top 5...

Many people that I talk to agree - you can't get a good steak dinner in the city of Schenectady.  I don't know about that.  I can think of many decent places down there, although many places concentrate on Italian food.  But there is one restaurant out to challenge this statement.

Yes, this is officially the definition of a slow news day, but it IS a local Schenectady story, so I thought I'd throw it out there.

I'm sure if you've lived in the Capital Region for years you'll remember movie reviewer Dan Di'Nicola.  He was an integral part of CBS 6 Albany. Actually flick watching and critiquing was only one facet of his career.  He also found inspiring stories from everyday people.  Well his memory lives on with this series of events coming to Little Italy in Schenectady

In April, a new business opened up in downtown Schenectady that hired employees with special needs, which includes autism and other developmental disabilities.

For many people, part of the Fourth Of July includes fireworks.

What?  Is this possible?  I heard about this coming home from the Taste Of Country Music Festival but I wondered what ever happened.  Here's the explosive scoop!

On Saturday, June 20, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., one section of Schenectady will be a really fun place to bring your family to, with plenty of stuff for everyone.

Calling all comic book dorks like me! If you would like to attend a Comic Con but don't want to go all the way to New York City or L.A., you can go to one right here in the Capital Region! It's going on July 11th at the Schenectady County Public Library (99 Clinton St, Schenectady, New York 12305) from 10a-4p...

To all near 34 Freeman's Bridge Road- time to pour the champagne.  It looks like you've passed the test.
