SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND!
Don't ever let anyone tell you "there's
nothing to do around here!" Our biggest
problem this weekend was deciding what
we could fit it and what we'd have to leave
out!
I've already written about Chris Bohinski's
first annual "Smile Day" in Hanover Township.
Free food, games, and prizes open to anyone
who knew about the event. I almost wished
it had rained since everything was inside.
Longing to take advantage of the sunshine
and warm temperatures we eventually
headed out to see what there was to see,
Time and a little gas was the only
investment needed to take in some of the
fantastic fall foliage around the area. And
there was plenty!
Then a walk along the Lehigh Gorge
Trail near White Haven. Free again!
Ironically some of the leaves along the
trail had already come down opening a
view to the river we didn't see in the
summer.
Sunday found us at the Fall Festival
at Heller's Orchards in Wapwallopen. We
couldn't resist some of the home made
foods there but it would certainly have
been possible to show up and simply
enjoy the music and demonstrations
without spending a cent.
The weather was, of course, a plus.
But as I look back over my own writings
I find plenty of excellent weather in
Octobers gone by so we shouldn't be
too surprised!
One of my Facebook friends
in Hazleton has picked up on a phrase
you used to hear on the radio from a
fellow named Pete Wambach who
boasted "It's a beautiful day in
Pennsylvania." It's the truth. You
just have to know where to look!
So seek and ye shall find!
Hope you do and all your
NEWS will be good!
