Jimmy has headed down the shore for a little vacation, so I’m taking up the helm this week. No worries, he’ll be back next week! In his absence, it only seems fitting that we should talk about all things sports. I’m not usually a sportswriter, but I think I can handle it. Maybe. We’ll see.
“She felt fairly confident that with a great deal of practice and effort, she would succeed in the end.” ~ Matilda Roald Dahl is one of the most beloved authors of children’s books.

Caring for a loved one is truly a selfless act. When this person becomes a priority, their needs usually exceed your needs. On top of a full-time job and a family of your own, handling it all may become overwhelming. This is expected, typical, and human nature. Respite care services provide temporary comfort, supervision, and
As skin ages, the classic approach to makeup with foundation and powder can become less effective as makeup settles into fine lines and wrinkles. Instead of covering up, the best approach to mature beauty focuses on nourishing from within and enhancing what you have. For myself, I’ve noticed that my skin is in its best
After looking at the title of this piece, some of you probably think I’m a little mixed up right now; it’s fishing season, and hunting seasons are still a couple of months away. Basically, that’s true, but there is one critter that offers prime hunting opportunities throughout the summer months, and that’s the common groundhog
Every person who has ever lived is a unique human being. We have fingerprints that are individual to us, but it is also true that the iris of our eyes, the rim of our ears, our tongue, our toes, our teeth — all are ours and ours alone. Yet, we also have a strong inner
To anyone ever involved with sharing a candy bar, pizza, or perhaps custody of young children, even though the portions may not have always been in half, the split that you received was never-the-less enjoyable. The Williamsport Crosscutters and fellow members of the MLB Draft League may be feeling the same way as the league’s
I used to be a fan of summer, but I don’t do well in the heat. I am a big guy who tends to sweat, and I no longer wear gray tees. Temperatures are now in the 90s. It’s miserable. The humidity is what kills me. I prefer to stay home. I am not a
The middle of July can mean just one thing in these parts; it’s time for the Lycoming County Fair. Th is especially holds true in the eastern end of the county. What a great All-American event that celebrates the area we call home. This week’s cover informed me this is the 152nd celebration of farming,
It has been what can only be described as disrespectfully hot outside. And you know what? Normally I don’t mind, but the humidity being at 1,053% is making it unbearable (and not doing my curly hair any favors). Since it’s eleventy billion degrees, but also in prime time for outside summer fun, it’s important that
For more than 150 years, the Lycoming County Fair has been provided a fun event for people of Lycoming County and nearby areas.

Now when you first think “travel outfit,” you may be thinking of what to pack, as in a vacation wardrobe. Sure, it’s preferable to spend time deliberating on the best summer dress for vacay cocktails or a new flattering swimsuit to wear on the beach because those are the fun parts, the reason for traveling
When I saw David Koepp’s name in the closing credits of the new Indiana Jones film, that explained a lot. In particular, it explained why my wife and I loved this movie — especially the final half-hour, which is absolutely spot-on.

As every summer rolls around, we begin seeing a variety of wildlife showing up in our yards.

Ian Andrews and I have been friends for a long time. He is a good dude, and we both love to fish. Ian grew up on Rose Valley Lake, and that is where he currently resides. We don’t see each other much, but we follow one another online. Thrilled my bud is back using the

Sometimes it seems like the only thing that is constant is change. It sounds a bit contradictory but think about it. We graduate from school and leave home, get a job, then change jobs. We move to new areas and sometimes even move to a different state. Meanwhile, all around us, new businesses crop up,
The irony of the mainstream media is that they honestly do not see how biased they are. Here is a classic example from the Associated Press (AP). Their lead sentence in a July 1st article stated, “The Supreme Court just finished issuing its biggest decisions of the term, killing President Joe Biden’s $400 billion plan
My life-long affiliation with and enjoyment of baseball and basketball has included decades of coaching the games I love. Those years have also included several seasons of umpiring games at various levels of play.
