I look forward to my winter ride up 44 North to Poust Taxidermy every year. It’s always great to talk about the past buck season with Dana Poust and Sam, the Taxidermy lady. I can’t think of a better thing to do on a cold, snow-covered day than to hear the stories and discuss the
Let’s be honest. Lately, it feels like the world has been turned up to maximum volume. Every time you open your phone, there’s a new headline, a new scandal, a new argument, and about 3,000 opinions demanding your attention before you’ve even finished your morning coffee. Staying informed matters. But being constantly overwhelmed does not
For 30 years, Riverdance has wowed audiences worldwide with its high-stepping Celtic dance. This year, they celebrate their 30th anniversary with a nationwide tour. They will grace the stage of the Journey Bank Community Arts Center with their dancing magic on February 26 at 7:30 p.m. According to some of their advance publicity, “Riverdance 30”
A man stood before the Lycoming County commissioners on Thursday, February 6, voicing concerns about tax dollars, the landfill, and White Deer Golf Course near Montgomery, and it became clear within moments that he had been asleep to information that had long since been settled. Lycoming County sprawls across 1,244 square miles of Pennsylvania wilderness,
Much love, sports fans. It is a great time of year. The high school basketball playoffs are near. The same with wrestling, swimming, and bocce. Best wishes to our local teams and individuals. I hope they advance. The groundhog saw his shadow. I have no idea what that means. Let’s pray for warmer weather. The
There exists an old theory in coaching circles that one never wants to be the coach who replaces a successful coach in a new job. Instead, you’d want to be the coach that follows the coach that followed the guy. Undaunted, new South Williamsport softball coach Jeanette Spagnuolo is excited about the opportunity as she
The “winter rabbit” I’m referring to in this article is actually the varying hare, or more often called a snowshoe rabbit. While closely related, the snowshoe is not a true rabbit since its digestive tract is different from the cottontails, and newborn hares are fairly well developed compared to the newborn hairless and blind cottontail
Throughout Pennsylvania and neighboring states, we are at the peak of the coyote breeding season. That means that we are in a prime time of the year to hunt one of our state’s most prolific predators. Both males and females are out and about during daylight hours more than usual, working up an appetite not
Dresses may not be at the top of your outfit menu this time of year, especially the year we’ve been having, but there are some mid-season dress trends for winter that offer a chance to refresh your wardrobe and maybe even your outlook. Who can resist the call from cozy knits and the velvet fabrics
As the colder months drag on and heaters continue to blast, many people notice their skin turning itchy, flaky, tight, or even cracked. If it feels like your skin transforms overnight once winter hits, you’re not imagining it. Dermatologists see a surge in dry-skin complaints every year, and the good news is, a few simple
Before I begin my column this week, I was asked to use a little space for a public service message. Would you please shovel out the fire hydrant in front of or near your house? This may include helping a neighbor who’s a little farther away, who may be elderly or unable to do this.
Well friends, Valentine’s Day is sneaking up on us again — which means grocery store aisles full of heart-shaped candy, last-minute flower runs, and at least one person realizing on February 13th that they were supposed to plan something weeks ago. Every year, we see articles promising the perfect date night — candlelit dinners, grand
The Super Bowl is history. Punxsutawney Phil has graced us with six more weeks of winter. Income tax preparations have us all grumbling a bit. Hopefully, Valentine’s Day will put a bit of levity into the February proceedings. Ah, but look at the bright side. Major League Baseball players are reporting to Spring Training camps
The cold has a way of drawing us inward, both to the warmth of our homes and to the quieter chambers of reflection, and it was in that spirit that the Lycoming County commissioners gathered on January 29 for their weekly meeting at the courthouse in Williamsport. The winter has been unrelenting this year, the
My good friend Nick Tagliaferri and I were somewhat celebrities. OK. That was many moons back. We simply took advantage of our impressive basketball coaching resumes and candid personalities. SPENCE TAG RADIO was well before its time. This weekly gig had many listeners. But no major sponsors. Our successes were very short-lived. I truly believe
When it comes to enhancing our hunting opportunities, taking time to improve the habitat where we hunt is one of the greatest investments of time and money we can make. At a time when most folks are pulled in multiple directions by work and family commitments, and when dollars are sometimes in short supply, it
Like many hunters or people just interested in seeing wildlife, I’m always on the lookout as I travel from place to place. This past weekend, my wife and I had to make daily trips to Bloomsburg to attend the Early Bird Show at the fairgrounds. We traveled the backcountry roads each morning and evening; my
A long-held staple in most wardrobes, black pants have gotten kind of a bad rap for being boring and basic. But the good thing about basics is that they are versatile and can be styled with elegance and ease. If you’re in need of some outfit inspiration here in the dull drum of winter or
I have a hard time believing that I’ve been doing this for 12 years! I picked up the torch from Mike Rafferty on a whim, and this column has gotten way more traction than I could have predicted (pun fully intended). Y’all know the drill by now. But in case you need a recap. Every
Journalism students learn the lesson early in their studies; there is a distinct difference between a reporter and a columnist. The main differences are their focus and style of writing. Reporters provide objective news, while columnists offer personal opinions and analysis. Reporters aim to present factual information without bias, whereas columnists use their space to
The Pennsylvania Board of Commissioners met on Tuesday, January 24, and has given preliminary approval to the 2026-27 Seasons and Bag limits. Final approval will occur at the April 10 & 11 meeting. For now, the following information might help you plan out your hunting in Pennsylvania for this fall through next spring. First, a
The January 22, 2026, Lycoming County Commissioners meeting opened with the kind of recognition that reminds us why local government works best when it celebrates the people who make everything possible. Cameron Boyer received a well-deserved service award for completing ten years of dedicated work that began in maintenance. At the same time, he attended
Well, this has certainly been a winter more like those years ago when it stayed cold, and we seemed to have plenty of snow. Except for that brief period of warmer, rainy weather earlier this winter, it has been a lot more like the cold, snowy winters of years past. The good news is that
Send Help is a new thriller about two people stranded on an island. Since it opened after this article was written, I haven’t seen it — though I suspect it’s too bloody for some of our “family-friendly” readers. (After all, director Sam Raimi — whose resume includes several Spider-Man movies and the sadly neglected Simple
A harbinger of warmer times and weather ahead was held two weeks ago when the Williamsport Crosscutters held their annual Hot Stove League Dinner at the Genetti Hotel. The event featured speakers reflective of our National Pastime, baseball, including former Phillies pitcher and present-day commentator Rickey Bottalico, former Williamsport Crosscutters and Phillies player and 2013
Through the cold, the wind, and the snowmageddon of it all, here recently, you may just want to wear whatever is warm and comfy. I have found myself reaching for the same grey sweater dress and fleece-lined black leggings at least once a week, or a white tee, black pants, and oversized cardigan for the
As January ended, many people who participated in Dry January began to consider returning to their usual drinking habits. This pause from alcohol often highlights how closely drinking habits are tied to heart and vascular health. While Dry January is commonly viewed as a short-term reset after the holidays, extending it or significantly reducing alcohol
