I am always looking for an outdoor adventure. This past Wednesday, I headed north for something new and exciting. It was a gorgeous morning outside of Bodines, PA. My gear was in the car, but there were no plans of fishing. I met up with a few friends along Slack’s Run Road. I wanted to
Once known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day is a time to honor and remember the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. Military.

There are five easy-to-grow and care for plants — tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, cucumber, and pepper plants.

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
Hopefully, you might be one of the lucky hunters who has already successfully tagged a spring gobbler. If not, or if you invested in a second tag for this season, the good news is that there is still plenty of time to connect with a spring turkey. Most turkey hunters I have talked with about
The leak from the Supreme Court revealed that the justices are leaning toward reversing the Roe vs. Wade decision of 1973. According to Vice President Harris, “What is clear is that opponents of Roe want to punish women and take away their rights to make decisions about their own bodies.” Speaker of the House Nancy
For South Williamsport softball player Gianna Godfrey, it was one of those ah-ha moments. Approaching the Mountaineers’ practice field on a sunny afternoon, the senior outfielder was greeted by five large poster photos newly adorning the backstop fence. One of those photos was of Godfrey. A bystander also noticed the photo and complimented her on
After a two-year hiatus, one of this area’s premier musical organizations will again share its talents with an audience.

As we fully come into May, one can’t help but think of summer. Along with transitioning wardrobes, packing away snow shovels, hauling out bikes, and spring cleaning in general, it’s also time to switch out your heavier winter scents for a fresh warm-weather fragrance. Smell can be such a subjective thing, and thanks to those
I mentioned to some that I was on the fence about returning. And after a little break. I made the decision. I recently stepped down at St. John Neumann. Look. I had a great run. But it is now time to focus on far more important things. Many folks will question, and I totally get
Who has time to continuously care for that carpet-like, green grass almost everyone longs for? Nearly no one.

When you see flowers and trees begin to bud and bloom and other migrating birds, like warblers, that’s nature’s way of letting you know it’s time to ready your yard for hummingbirds.

After two years of facing pandemic woes, it is time to make your health a top priority again. While you may think a primary care appointment is not urgent and it’s OK to put off a visit with your provider, you may be setting yourself up for potentially serious health issues later. Cancer and other
Pollination is the transfer of pollen to a stigma ovule, flower, or plant, to allow fertilization. Working in the garden, I see more pollinators each day. If you see bees, flies, butterflies, birds, and other insects, it’s best to let them be. These hard-working insects and animals are needed to have fruits and vegetables. Doing
After months of cool weather, the first hint of spring will likely have the whole family eager to dive into outdoor activities.

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
