    Even with the recent bit of warmer weather, it’s still winter out there, and chances are you still need to be strategic when it comes to getting dressed for the elements. Mid-winter thaws are similar to late fall and early spring with their chilly morning temps, followed by temperate afternoon highs. Much like transitional seasons,

  • Breaking the Barrier0

    Gerry Ayers

    Running an errand from Loyalsock into Montoursville on a cold, snow-covered afternoon, a moving, jumping object caught the corner of my eye. It was a stray deer trying (in vain) to jump a roadway fence and get onto the bike path. Try as she might, she couldn’t scale it by trying to leap it. So

  • Prejudice Always Hurts0

    Tim Hartzell

    The word prejudice simply means to pre-judge. When we pass judgment on someone before we know anything about him or her, we are guilty of prejudice. I grew up in a very prejudiced environment — and then I became a victim of my own prejudice. Let me tell you about it. When I was about

    We are at that time of the year when most of our hunting is over; sure we can still chase rabbits and squirrels until the end of February and, of course, coyotes can be had anytime. Last week, I even spotted a distant field with a bunch of goose decoys spread over a large area.

    Larry Stout

    Every newly elected governmental body inherits the problems of the past administration plus the new ones that arise. This was true when Tony Mussare, Jack McKernan, and Rick Mirabito began as a new board of commissioners for Lycoming County in January 2016. The one big elephant in the room was the problem of budget deficits.

    A question I often hear throughout the winter months during my ice fishing outings is, “What do you do with all the fish you catch?” My answer, “We eat them.” Don’t misunderstand, I don’t eat all the fish I catch, but I do prepare certain ones for the dinner table. Basically, I’m pretty much a

    I begin with a confession. Yes, I did recently pen an article in which I discussed choices of rifles and calibers when it comes to deer hunting. And, yes, I sang the praises of a .260 caliber rifle and the 120-grain ballistic tip bullet it uses. The truth remains that I have, over the years,
