Shots around town

I unearthed a number of photos my wife and I (mostly her) took around town in fall 2007. Neither of us are photographers by hobby and we’re certainly nothing close to professional. But she has pretty good instincts and we we were able to capture some interesting shots of businesses and homes here [...]

Still a small town

We hear all the time in the media how “disconnected” people are from each other in modern society. There’s a paradox at work: it is easier to communicate these days but we communicate less personally, perhaps even less frequently. Face-to-face communication is said to have less importance. We are also told are communities are more [...]
Coming soon to the Penn Theatre: UP

Our family just saw, UP, a fantastic little movie in the first-run theater a few weeks back, and at a hefty price, too. It’s a great “family” movie. I can’t believe it’s coming to the Penn so soon.
It will run there August 28-30, and September 3. Tickets are only $3.00. That [...]
A mixed blessing

It is, at a minimum, unpleasant to have to take a pet to a veterenarian or animal hospital for anything more serious than routine check ups. Even with a good outcome, the experience is stressful for the animal and painful on the wallet. I’ve had our cat in the vet ER twice since last Thursday, [...]
The 3/50 Project

I’ve been seeing yard signs all over town the last week or so for the “3/50 Project.” The signs, though, don’t really say what the project is. It was pretty easy, though, to find info on the internet.
The 3/50 Project is organized (by whom, I’m not yet quite sure) to save “the bricks and mortars [...]
Two thumbs down for Bally Total Fitness

I really debated whether or not to ever discuss things like this on this particular blog. As long as I can do so in an honest and ethical fashion, my intention has always been that one of the byproducts of this blog would be that local businesses might be patronized. I’m no shill for any [...]
I Heart My Chiropractor

If you’ve read this blog lately, you will have seen that I’ve been injured the last few days. I’m happy to report that I’m feeling a lot better. I mean a lot better! Since Monday I’ve seen my chiropractor twice and I’m done.
What does this have to do with this blog? Well, nothing directly. Although [...]
Sidelined

I’d love to be writing more right now, but I’m a bit sidelined with an injury. I’ll keep my eye open for interesting things going on around town and report back when I’m feeling a bit better.
Thanks to those of you that take the time to read this blog. I appreciate it.
