It's Throwback Thursday on the show today.  We take time to remember a legend in country music - Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard April 6, 1937 - April 6, 2016

Dozens of number ones, a song list over a mile long and the ability to captivate anyone he spoke to.  He will be missed in the country music industry and fans around the world.

Like we do each Thursday we throwback with Irene Kerr from the Museum of the Highwood.  Today she tells us about the old Astoria Hotel which originally sat on the area we know now as the Provincial Building.

To learn more about our rich history stop by the museum or find them online.

Don't forget the current exhibit on Film in the Foothills is also accompanied by Saturday afternoon movie screenings. Popcorn provided!!
