I’m sure many of you have experienced the same emotions I have since first learning about the shooting at Robb Elementary school in Texas. As I am writing this, I am in just flat-out angry mode. These are our children; we are the United States of America, and we must find a way to protect
I have always said, if you think there is nothing to do in our area, that you aren’t even trying. There is almost always something happening, somewhere to go, or something to do in our area. Adult, kid and family activities are easy to find, because there are plenty of them to do. Don’t believe
“Get ready to die!” Those chilling words echoed through an elementary school classroom in Texas. And die they did. After several agonizing minutes, 21 individuals were dead. No, not dead — slaughtered. As if the situation wasn’t horrific enough, 19 of those individuals killed last Tuesday were children averaging around the age of 10 years
As you are taking full advantage of your freedom to do whatever you want to do on hopefully a beautiful sun-drenched Memorial Day, please take the time to remember, honor, and educate your children about those that paid the ultimate price for our liberty.

Memorial Day is often considered the unofficial kick-off to summer. With that, we are once again kicking off our summer giveaway! We are once again doing our Great American Cookout giveaway! We have a grill courtesy of Elery Nau Hardware and gift cards to Rupert’s Specialty Meats and Frosty Beverage! That’s everything you need to
I am going to start my column where I often end it this time of year; let’s all be extra careful out there. There is just so much more activity and great things going on; keep those eyes on the road. An added distraction I have fallen prey to is watching the majestic American Bald
Graduation is upon us. Be it from high school or college, I think that we can all agree that it would be an understatement to say that it has been an interesting few years for the Class of 2022. Due to the pandemic, many soon-to-be grads spent a significant portion of their school years adapting
I couldn’t believe that a former president, and I’m talking Donald Trump, not Barack Obama, endorsed Dr. Mehmet Oz for a senatorial spot here in the great state of Pennsylvania. I’d really like to know the behind-the-scenes truth about that one. But hey, if he’s your man, get out and cast your vote. That is
I have a love-hate relationship with social media. I love being able to connect with my friends and family and keep up with what is going on their lives. But a lot of social media is a toxic cesspool of negativity, lies, and just general bad vibes. As an adult, however, separating the good from
A Happy Mother’s Day and heartfelt thank you to all the moms. There is nothing more special than a mother’s love, caring, and nurturing. This represents an amazing gift in the plan of God. The bond between a mother’s love and maternal guidance seems to grow stronger as the years pass by, and mom is
Well, well, well! Look what time of year it is! It’s Mother’s Day this Sunday and time for my yearly Mother’s Day list. I make tweaks and adjustments from year to year, but overall, it’s a good list. So, without further ado… First of all, Happy Mother’s Day to my mom. I love you. Happy
Whether or not you agree with all the aspects of global change, you have to admit the unpredictability of our weather has been extreme. The storms, wind, and isolation of weather patterns seem to be more severe and hard-hitting. The one thing that seems to stand out to me is drastic temperature changes, and there
