Always one of my favorite covers of the year — the tradition of the South Williamsport Mummers’ Parade now celebrating its 79th marching. As I have mentioned in the past, I grew up on the top of Kane Street on the South Side, and the Mummers’ Parade was one of my favorite events as a
They’re baaaaaack — and this year, they’re hiding in plain sight. Every October, something Halloween-y finds its way to the pages of Webb Weekly. This year, it seems the bats have escaped the belfry and taken up residence throughout the paper. Your mission? Find them. Count them. And tell us how many you spotted. Think
Wow, I have never seen more potential jack-o’-lanterns lining the highways and byways of our area. It has to be a record crop for local farmers. There are tall pumpkins, there are fat pumpkins, there are pumpkins of every shape and size. With all the cost increases the local farmer has endured this year, I

Be other people’s biggest fan. Support them. Encourage them. Root for them to succeed. You should never root for someone to fail, even if that person happens to be someone you’re competing against. The easiest example I can think of is sports. People will say, “I hate the Red Sox.” Or they’ll take it even
Fall has officially arrived, and that means it’s time to have some fall fun! Pumpkin spice everything, corn mazes, pumpkin picking, and more! Because everyone always tells me there is nothing to do around here, and because I am a bit of a petty sort, I’ve decided to tell you all the fall fun to
We all need to find positivity and pass it on with a side of kindness. This especially holds true on the highways.

Let’s be honest: There are approximately 47,000 skincare routines floating around the internet. Cleanser. Toner. Essence. Serum. Eye cream. Another serum. Moisturizer. Face oil. And don’t forget the separate morning and nighttime routines. Listen, I’m tired just writing that list. And there is zero chance I am going to do all that. You are lucky
Last week, I talked about balance.
