The boys and I have been busy. We are fine-tuning our swings for the upcoming spring season. Lycoming College plays golf year-round, and my Warriors have the bug. They continue to call me. Times have changed. We no longer go outside to brave the elements. My guys stay indoors. They were their shorts. Technology helps.
Nope, this is not about looking for wood sheds, tool sheds, outhouses, or any other type of outbuilding. This is the time of year when bucks begin to drop their antlers, and hunting for these sheds is a passion for whitetail hunters. There is some thought that temperature changes or fluctuations trigger the shedding of
I know turkey season is over, but like many hunters, I’m always on the lookout for game — especially turkeys. Spotting flocks of turkeys now, may lead to some potential hunting sites — especially when spring gobbler season rolls around. I’ve been seeing turkeys here and there all fall and into the winter months, but
I found myself driving home from a game. The Millionaires were on the road. We made two trips to the greater Harrisburg area this week. No worries. I enjoy my time on Route 15. I listen to music and think. I felt bad for my behavior last night. I was in rare form. I am
It was a lesson learned long ago when my interest in journalism was in its infancy. A scribe well-versed in the occupation passed on his warning – ‘If you ever become a columnist, don’t include your personal opinions regarding politics or religion in what you write.’ That advice is spot-on, as those of you who
I was watching television the other night; it was a program that was fun and entertaining and one that I’m sure many of you have also seen. The half-hour program is called “World’s Funniest Weather” and features people who are caught on video making dumb mistakes or who fall victim to some kind of indoor
Since 1996, the population of monarch butterflies in the Eastern United States has declined by about 90%, and one of the biggest reasons is loss of habitat. Monarchs need early successional vegetation, with all the various flowering plants, such as goldenrod and milkweed, that often can be found in fallow fields, such as fields that
I’m sure it’s no secret that me, my wife, and several of my buddies love to spend time on the ice during the winter months. Over the last few years, safe ice has been hard to come by, but fortunately, we were able to get on the ice several days at the end of December.
There are good days and not such good days to head to the woods to do some habitat work. The past few days, with temperatures below zero and wind chill temperatures well below zero, were not good days! But as things warm up a bit and we return to more comfortable conditions; it will be
Days after Penn State’s hopes for a national championship were dashed by a series of questionable play calls and lack of execution, the topic of conversation at a church social gathering was predictable. While second-guessing is nearly 100% accurate, the Nittany Lion fans present never-the-less vented their feelings and disappointment over Notre Dame’s 27-24 win
Much love, folks. I trust this New Year is off to a great start. My heart goes out to those in Southern California. I have touched base with my parents concerning the fires. They reside in West Hollywood. All is well for them, but they know many who were impacted. My father has sent me
Since 1962, the Harlem Wizards have entertained and delighted audiences across the country while raising money for worthy causes. The Wizards will return to Williamsport on Thursday, January 23, at the Williamsport High School basketball court, affectionately known as the “Magic Dome.” This event will help raise funds for the Williamsport Area School District Education
