    Too Hot to Cook0

    You are correct. I am not in fact Jimmy. As of this writing we are a couple of days ahead of the 4th of July, and the last I saw him he was headed toward the Market St. bridge bound and determined to get us fireworks one way or another. Hopefully I don’t need bail

  • Dino at the Beach0

    This week’s article is kind of a continuation of how I ended last week’s. I finished with this: “Our generation needs strong, present, resilient parents. Moms and dads working together as a team.” That thought stuck with me. The inspiration for this week’s article came after Lauren and I took Beau on his first beach

    If you enjoy good food, tractor pulls, demolition derbies, great grandstand shows, agricultural displays, and arts and crafts, the 155th Lycoming County Fair in Hughesville is the place to be. County fairs like the Lycoming County Fair started as events where local farmers showed their best livestock and crops. Over time, they have grown into

  • The Roving Sportsman… Start Planning for Fall Food Plots0

    Although we are at the beginning of the summer season, it is not too early to focus on fall food plots; in fact, the time could not be better to begin the process. To do it well, there is planning, research, and fieldwork to do, and with the drier weather we seem to be having,

    Wrenched – Nefarious – Business – Attitude. Should the league, now ‘celebrating’ its 30th year of existence, be looking for a new marketing slogan, they are welcome to use this one. No charge. It fits them well! Showman P.T. Barnum is credited with saying, “There is no such thing as bad publicity.” The rationale being

    Turkey Hunting’s “Grand Slam”0

    I’ll be quick to admit that calling in a turkey is one of my favorite hunting adventures, and if I managed to pick up a gobbler every year in Pennsylvania, I would be tickled pink, but that doesn’t always happen. Of course, some hunters are successful every year, and there are even some hunters who

  • County Hall Corner: Lycoming Legislates and Learns0

    The Lycoming County Commissioners moved their weekly meeting to Wednesday, June 24, breaking from their standard Thursday schedule to address an urgent matter that demanded immediate action. The shift signaled the gravity of what was about to unfold. Data center development has accelerated across Pennsylvania, and Lycoming County suddenly found itself at a crossroads. The

  • Summer Madness0

    I used to be a fan of summer, but I don’t do well with the heat. I am a big guy who tends to sweat, and I shouldn’t be allowed to wear my gray tees. The temperatures are getting close to 100 degrees. It’s miserable. The humidity is what kills me. Last week I was

  • Jewelry Trends0

    One of the easiest and chicest ways to update your outfit in the summer is with jewelry. I’ve been opting lately for simple garments like pull-on linen pants, white tanks, and Velcro-strap sandals for my daily look. In general, summer style has fewer layers, lighter fabrics, and plays into a “throw it on and go”

  • The Keystone of Freedom 2500

    There has been way too much negativity across our Nation in the last year, we need to leave it in the past and move forward full speed ahead. The United States of America is truly the greatest shining light of freedom and opportunity the world has ever seen. Our One Nation Under God must remember

    Some people love Christmas, for others it’s Halloween… For me? It’s the 4th of July. Fireworks! Toby Keith and Lee Greenwood! Fireworks! Punny t-shirts! (Mine says ‘Abraham Drinkin’ with a pic of Honest Abe with a beer.) Fireworks! American flags as far as the eye can see! Fireworks! And no pressure to go, do, or

  • Let the Big Dog Eat0

    “You can’t complain about your plate being full if your goal is to eat.” That is a quote from Nick Bare, and I thought it was awesome. I have mentioned before how much I enjoy listening to him, but this one really got me thinking. Recently, just for fun, I did a “day in the

    There will be a spectacular and vivid fireworks display to celebrate this nation’s 250th birthday, which will take place after all, at the Lycoming County Fairground after some scrambling and the unselfish efforts of Van Michael, Backyard Broadcasting, and various sponsors. We at Webb Weekly thought it would be interesting and informative to have Van

  • Remembering the Bicentennial of 19760

    By Lou Hunsinger, Jr. As we get ready to celebrate the 250th anniversary of this nation’s birth, it might be interesting to look back just 50 years to remember what things were like during the nation’s Bicentennial in 1976. It was a time when institutions, both private and public, went out of their way to

    My extended family and I are currently in Glacier. A stunning National Park in northwest Montana. We return Sunday. Fantastic times. Totally off the grid. But there is free Wi-Fi. My article is loading. Glacier NP is outstanding. She spans over one million acres of super rugged terrain, pristine pines, turquoise lakes, and flowing waters.

  • When The “Wild” Gets Too Friendly0

    If you live in a country setting like most of us do around this part of the state, we are used to spotting an assortment of wildlife roaming about the nearby forests and fields, and even our backyards. Over the past few weeks, we have had a couple of black bears walk by the house,

  • 250th – With Pride0

    Fifteen months before the Declaration of Independence was signed in Philadelphia, the fight leading to the birth of our nation rang out with the battle of Lexington & Concord. That April 19, 1775, skirmish amounted to spring training for the Revolutionary War, with the scoreboard showing Minutemen 1, Redcoats 0. On that historic day, 49

  • Too Much Information0

    The Lycoming County Commissioners faced a fundamental problem at their recent meeting. The zoning ordinance they had been relying on to regulate data centers was written in 1991 and last amended in 2021. Neither version anticipated the scale and resource demands of modern data centers. These massive operations consume enormous amounts of electricity and water,

    Reduce the Risk of Lost Pets0

    Pets bring so much joy into our lives. It’s no surprise that, according to the American Pet Products Association, about 66% of U.S. households (roughly 86.9 million homes) had a pet in 2024. Even more telling—about 97% of pet owners consider their pets part of the family. Bringing a pet into your home is a

    Williamsport and Lycoming County have a wonderful, vibrant musical heritage. It seems appropriate to celebrate it as part of this nation’s 250th birthday.

  • The Roving Sportsman… Seeking Permission to Hunt0

    Hunters today have three basic options for where to hunt. There is public land, such as our Pennsylvania state game lands and state forests, but they can sometimes be crowded by other hunters whom you don’t know, and you can’t be too sure they are ethical sportsmen. You could join a hunting camp or buy

    We’ve all shared the experience. The passing of a loved one or dear friend fills our thoughts and conjures up memories we’ve shared. It’s hard to let go. For me, another one of those life-sadnesses occurred a few weeks ago, when good friend and colleague, Mike Fogarty, suited up for the team above. Mike could

  • The Unexpected0

    I’ll be honest, every time I head out to a lake or stream for some fishing, I’ve pretty much decided what species of fish I intend to pursue. My reason for that approach is to choose the right equipment, lures and presentation to accomplish a successful trip. This approach is especially true when I plan
