I know that I don’t delve into sports very often, but sometimes things just play out that way (pun intended). The fact that I regularly joke about not running unless I’m being chased makes this even more ironic. But let’s ignore all that and talk about Kylie Temple and the amazing year that she has
Every spring, like a lot of other folks, I find myself scanning the countryside for the newly arriving fawn deer. Most of our adult does in Pennsylvania start giving birth between mid-May and the end of June, with the birthing season peaking around May 30th. I actually spotted my first fawn a couple of weeks
Extensive research has revealed there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that Queen’s We Are the Champions is the ringtone on Gabe Sinicropi’s phone. But the Crosscutters organization has every reason to be proud. “It is a very positive thing to point to,” Sinicropi, the team’s director of marketing, echoed, referencing the Crosscutters 2024
When you spend as much time on the water as I do — you always catch a few. And while some days are certainly better than others — you occasionally have those fantastic once-in-a-lifetime experiences. These nights are extremely rare. I can count them on my fingers. Last evening was not one to remember. I
Spring is in full swing, and summer is rapidly approaching! Pop-up showers, along with the occasional thunderstorm and all-day rains, have turned the brown fields into lush green. For weeks now, the tree swallows and bluebirds have been busily flying in and out of their bird boxes as they lay and hatch eggs and begin
Hats off to my friends at the Lycoming Creek Anglers. I give them lots of credit. These guys and gals make our fishing experiences much more splendid. Yes. We have battled some rain and high waters, but this spring has been fantastic. We are so spoiled. I finally snuck out for a few casts. I
Memorial Day has come and gone, and with it, it brought what most folks consider to be the first day of summer. Forget the meteorologists and calendar makers who have decreed that occurrence doesn’t happen until June 20; it’s Memorial Day that signals the beginning of summer fun! Originally known as Decoration Day, the last
One of the most often asked questions I hear is “when is the best time to hunt turkeys?’ The first week of our spring season is preferred by many and there are those who are convinced that the last week of the season is the best time to call in a lonely gobbler. For sure
When you look at the title of this story, you would think I’m talking about some of the lousy, rainy weather we’ve been dealing with this spring, but I’m actually referring to something positive. What I’m actually talking about is the outstanding fishing that can be had during the spring days and particularly for black
As a ten-year-old Little Leaguer, Peter Sinibaldi dreamed of someday hitting a walk-off home run just like his New York Yankees heroes were doing. Eight years later, his walk-off single gave his South Williamsport high school team a 2-1 win over Sayre, clinching the school’s second consecutive District IV championship. Telling the media after the
I have seen many baseball venues — larger-than-life professional ball fields to stunning Little League complexes. I once waved a Homer Hankie in the Metrodome. A left-handed friend of ours pitched at Memorial. I almost caught a fly ball at Dodgers Stadium. I used to hang out on the bank to catch the games at
I was doing some target shooting the other day, and missing the target is not something we want to have happen. We know what we’re after and what we want to see when target shooting, and surprises are generally not a welcome sight. However, missing the target can sometimes be a welcomed surprise when it
