A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ The Front Parlor storytelling series is coming to Albany.
+ Albany is one step closer to a residential parking permit system.
+ We checked out the new frozen yogurt place in Albany.
+ Behold: the nano bridge.
+ A claim that "Albany is the new Austin" set off some discussion.
+ Sebastien shared his experience from a mac 'n cheese class at the Arts Center.
+ Tuesday was Election Day -- and the lack of competition in many races left us, and many others apparently, wanting. Here's a quick scan of highlights from the results.
+ Martin shared a list of things you should have in your car -- and your house, and for you -- for winter.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: Stewart's signage, glaring Swiss chard, Five Rivers, haters, wooly aphids, a moving apartment building, credit unions, Andy Rooney, a magnificent edifice, real ramen, belly patting, fire cider, beer boots, liquid cheesecake, the Blue Benn, ShopRite pressuring Price Chopper, heartbreaking espresso, Albany Comic Con, and the wall of hypochondria.
+ A few of the items found on Craigslist this week: crimefighting brahs, the best-looking person at the Biergarten, hipster empty nesters, and a royal alpaca.
+ The War on Crows has started up again.
+ Maria asked about good places for sunsets.
+ And Katherine went on a wine tasting trip in Columbia County.
