No matter the season, leggings are a forever staple. Whether you wear them exclusively for workouts, lounging, or a mix of activities, there are a ton of new styles on the rise.

I was on my way home one morning last week from sipping some coffee with friends at a nearby McDonald’s when I glanced over at a still snow-covered field, and much to my surprise, I spotted two gobblers. I was even more impressed when I saw how long their beards were-definitely trophy birds. That sighting
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day, and good luck to all on planning whatever home improvement is needed. Before I get to both of those topics, I have a little more serious issue to talk about. I am always amazed how the people of the West Branch Valley come together during a crisis, whether it’s here at
Full disclosure, I am not Irish. Not even a little bit. I have a 23andMe report to confirm it. But everyone loves to celebrate St. Paddy’s Day! Plus, my mom still insists on pinching people for not wearing green, despite the fact that she is also, not even a little bit Irish. So I’ll wear

I’m sitting in the front row of the SJNRA short bus. The 23-3 Golden Knights are en route to Minersville to play in the Single-A Boys PIAA Quarterfinals. These road games are tough as our kids tend to get loud. I know the bus driver means well, and I get a little queasy on these

Spring is emerging, and as we wait for the first colorful bursts of pansies, snowdrops, and violets, you may be reconsidering your own bloom hue, aka hair color. Hair color can say a lot about one’s identity, personal style, and self-confidence. And, whether or not you color your hair, there can be seasonal shifts (intentionally
