A Historical Congratulations On Your 2026 Graduation

With all that the Class of 2026 has witnessed in what was supposed to be that special senior year, they deserve a presidential quality commencement speech. So I looked to our Commanders in Chief since the founding of our Nation in 1776 for the class of 2026.

Our 2nd President, John Adams, will give the opening remarks.

“You will ever remember that all the end of study is to make you a good man and a useful citizen.” “To be good and to do good is all we have to do.”

President Adams will now step down from the podium and will be followed by President George Washington, and then all presidents in attendance past and present day.

“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation for better to be alone than to be in bad company.” ~George Washington

“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his good. Nothing on Earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.”

~Thomas Jefferson

“Circulation of confidence is better

than the circulation of money.” ~James Madison

“We must support our rights, or lose our character, and along with it our liberty.”

~James Monroe

“Always vote for principle, although you may vote alone.” Our 5th president ~John Quincy Adams.

“Any man worth his salt will stick up for what he believes in, but it takes a slightly better man to acknowledge instantly and without reservation that he is in error.”

~Andrew Jackson

“Labor disgraces no man, unfortunately, you will occasionally find men who disgrace labor.” ~Ulysses S. Grant

“There is nothing stable but Heaven and the Constitution.” ~James Buchanan

“No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.” “Most folks are as happy as they make their minds up to be.” ~Abraham Lincoln

Moving ahead to the 32nd president of the United States, Harry S. Truman, “The reward of suffering is experience for the future.” “It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit.”

“I think we consider too much the good

luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.” ~FDR

“Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because they want to do it.” ~Dwight D. Eisenhower

“Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” ~JFK

“Yesterday is not ours to recover, but it is ours to win or lose.” ~Lyndon B. Johnson

“Those that hate you don’t win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.” ~Richard Nixon

“A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.” ~Gerald Ford

“We should live our lives as though Christ were coming this afternoon.” ~Jimmy Carter

“Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction. We didn’t pass it on in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and be handed on for them to do the same.” ~Ronald Reagan

“There is nothing more fulfilling than to serve your country and your fellow citizens and do it well.” 41st president. ~George H.W. Bush

“We all do better when we work together. Our differences do matter, but

our common humanity matters more.” ~William Jefferson Clinton

“We did not come to fear the future, we came to shape it.” ~Barack Obama

“I thought when I graduated we could defeat hate.” ~ Joe Biden

“Persevere and overcome challenges, and never, ever give up.” ~Donald Trump

To wrap things up in our 250th celebratory commencement message to the class of 2026, again our 16th President Abraham Lincoln, “And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count, it’s the life in your years.”

Being the President of the United States of America is, and always has been, the most difficult job in the world. Much can be learned from these men. Their words of wisdom, advice, and preservation of freedom are timeless. Several did a great job as leader of our great Nation, some average, a few not so much, or worse. All have been part of our winding road of history.

Tip of my Webb Weekly cap with the American Flag on the side to all in the Class of 2026. At this most unique time in American history, please go out and make a difference for the good. If possible, please reside and use your talents right here at home in the West Branch Valley. Help preserve life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in our little corner of Penn’s Woods.

God Bless America.

From the Editor…

Editor for a Day: Joe’s Dream Job

By Joseph W. Smith III

If Webb readers needed any confirmation that this particular writer is a true reading nerd, here it is: One highlight of my recent Southern vacation was the chance to peruse no less than seven different Florida newspapers.

These included dailies and weeklies from such places as Naples, Fort Myers and the Peace River region, along with the venerable Orlando Sentinel and an out-of-town staple to which I am shamelessly addicted—The New York Post.

(Yes, that and other Northeastern papers are readily available even at rural gas stations in the Sunshine State—perhaps reflecting a senior population that still likes to get its news the old-fashioned way; and I will add that if you want a Post in Central PA, you have to drive to Duncannon to find one— I’m not kidding.)

All of which is my way of confessing a lifelong fascination with newspapers. And I come by that honestly:

My father, Doug Smith, was a well-known Buffalo-area personality both in print and on TV; he boasted a journalistic career span-

at several Northeastern papers--including such PA mainstays as the Bloomsburg Press-Enterprise and the now-defunct Bethlehem Globe-Times. But … no soap.

Instead, I worked briefly in publishing and then built a career teaching public school (more on this later). Not until 1997 did I finally fulfill my lifelong dream: On a whim, I phoned the Sun-Gazette’s estimable Lifestyles editor, Robin Van Auken, and offered her a film review—which she accepted sight unseen.

I then spent the next 25 years as S-G correspondent (or what my dad could have called a “stringer”) before that daily institution had to cut back to only onboard staff for all their pieces.

And then in 2022, Webb editor Steph Noviello changed my life by agreeing to run pretty much any reviews I sent in. A short time later, she changed it again by acceding to a weekly column on oddball vocab--the socalled “Weird Words,” which today reaches its 125th installment.

twenty-something years in the 1980s. I don’t do layout (at least not since the cut-andpaste days of my high school newspaper); and I don’t pick and choose what runs & what doesn’t. It’s just a matter of proofing for grammar and such, plus copy editing for smoothness—and a little formatting before sending it on to more capable hands to lay out.

Yet somehow, my long intervening careers have prepared me pretty well for this task:

Having worked at the copy-editing desk for Syracuse University’s Daily Orange, I thereafter landed a similar full-time job at Simon & Schuster in New York City. At the end of that five-year stint, I hammered out a master’s in literature from NYU and then moved on to 30-plus years teaching high school English. During those hard-working decades in New Jersey and then Central PA, I read— and marked up—something like 30,000 student essays.

I also developed a fondness for dictionaries—of which I now own nearly 100—and became a nonstop reader, notching around 100 books a year. I’ve taken classes at six colleges and written roughly 2000 articles for internet and newspaper.

For me, layout and assignments might be a challenge; but editing for good English … that I can do. And I did it—though the pieces I worked on didn’t need much fixing. We have a great bunch of writers here at Webb.

And then several weeks ago, she changed my life AGAIN by asking if I would serve as editor for one issue while she took a long-overdue (and much-deserved) vacation to support her husband in his aptly named “Infinitus” race. (I’m afraid to cite the actual length of this event, because trust me—it will look like a typo.)

Now this editor-for-a-week gig is not exactly what I’d aimed for during those heady

Still, for all the fun this was, I might not be ready for the big time just yet. As it happened, I wound up launching my brief gig with a bone-headed clerical and emailing error— strictly my own!—that confused several recipients. Though we got it worked out, this was not exactly an auspicious start for Editor Joe. Let’s hope it doesn’t discourage Steph from more vacations in the future.

Every fledgling wants a second shot.

Local Habitat for Humanity “Blitz Build” Takes Place June 6-7

By Lou Hunsinger Jr.

Adequate and affordable housing is one of the great needs in America these days, and the Greater Lycoming County area is no exception. In a bid to help lessen this problem, the Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanity (GLHFH) organization will be conducting a “Blitz Build” during the twoday period of June 6 and 7.

A “Blitz Build” is a high-energy, high-impact homebuilding event designed to accelerate construction through the collective efforts of local volunteers and experienced Habitat for Humanity builders from across the country. For GLHFH, the event marks a major milestone in its mission to expand affordable housing opportunities in Lycoming County.

construct more than 100 homes. The team will work alongside GLHFH’s construction crew and local volunteers during the twoday event. More than 100 volunteers from the community, including sponsoring businesses and organizations, will assist in the construction project.

Typically, a Habitat home takes 12-18 months to complete through the work of staff and volunteers. The Blitz Build model dramatically accelerates that timeline while maintaining Habitat’s standards for quality, safety, and energy efficiency.

“The Crazies love to help communities stir up some excitement and help families build and buy their homes,” said building contractor Tom Gerdy of Lynchburg, who helps coordinate the traveling volunteer group. “The best part about these builds is that they are head-clearing and heart-growing events for all involved.”

“This Blitz Build is an incredible opportunity to bring our community together to make homeownership a reality for another local family,” said Dana Brigandi, Director of Development for GLHFH. “In just one weekend, volunteers will help build more than a house — they’ll help build stability, security, and a stronger future.”

According to Brigandi, the project will be supported by a group of 40-45 experienced Habitat volunteers from a national group known as the “Habitat Road Trip Crazies.”

Founded in 1988 in Lynchburg, Va., the group has traveled throughout the United States, helping small Habitat affiliates

“The Blitz Build” supports GLHFH’s fiveyear strategic plan to construct 11 homes in Williamsport and South Williamsport by the end of 2027. The 1628 Scott St. home will be the third of six planned homes on that street and the sixth home completed under the current strategic plan. To date, GLHFH has completed two homes on Clark Street in South Williamsport, two on Scott Street, and a partnership home at 508 Fifth Ave., built with Pennsylvania College of Technology students.

No prior construction experience is required to volunteer for the Blitz Build;

however, all construction volunteers must be at least 18 years old. Safety training and protective equipment will be provided onsite. GLHFH is also seeking donations for meals, water, and refreshments for volunteers during the two-day event. Hospitality volunteers are needed to assist with water distribution, traffic direction, and supply coordination.

“Who knows, if we get enough funding and volunteer help, maybe we can do two houses that weekend,” Brigandi said. “We have the land, and we have the walls — we just need the financial support and dedicated volunteers to make it happen.”

Much of the success that Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanity has achieved over the years is due in large part to the partnership they have with Penn College.

In addition to building construction technology, the project involved classes in the college’s concrete science technology, electrical construction, heating, ventilation and air conditioning technology, heavy equipment operator technology, and landscape/ plant production majors. Architectural technology students also participated by proposing energy-efficient designs for the site.

A little bit about Habitat for Humanity and the local chapter.

Its mission: Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

Since 1989, Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanity has been providing local, low-income residents with safe, affordable homeownership. The Williamsport/Lycoming Habitat for Humanity was started by Ben

and Ruth Keller in 1987 and became an official affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International in 1989.

In October 2007, the Williamsport/Lycoming Habitat for Humanity was renamed Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanity to better reflect its service to the Lycoming, Tioga, Bradford, and eastern Clinton counties region.

The ReStore opened in May 2008. The ReStore is a retail operation managed by GLHFH staff that sells new and used building components, hardware, furniture, and household goods at 50 to 75 percent off retail price. Due to ReStore sales and recycling programs, tons of reusable materials are kept out of landfills annually.

GLHFH works with low- to moderate-income families using mostly volunteer labor.

Interested homeowners must apply and proceed through a qualification process for a 30-year mortgage through a community bank. GLHFH works with families throughout the course of their loan to keep owners current on their mortgages, taxes, and insurance. Qualified selected families must also contribute 250 hours of “sweat equity” through hands-on work during the home build phase. Most GLHFH new construction homes are energy-efficient, have three bedrooms, and 1,200-1,600 square feet of living space.

GLHFH has completed 60 homes in our region since 1989, with five additional new homes to be built by 2027.

Lease Signed for East Third Street Bus Terminal

Compiled by Lou Hunsinger Jr.

The bus terminal located at the corner of East Third and Mulberry Streets has been leased to the bus interests operating in and out of the city and will be opened Saturday, June 11.

The announcement was made today by Frank E. Plankenhorn, owner of the building which occupies the site of the former YWCA, and by those taking over the structure.

The terminal will be known as the Union Bus Terminal. A public demonstration is to mark the initial use of the building which has been entirely reconstructed and is recognized as one of most modern terminals in the state. Plans for this demonstration are

already being made and will likely include a parade in addition to an inspection by the public.

The terminal according to the announcement will be used by approximately 10 bus lines operating out of the city for points to all parts of the United States and Canada. The new terminal will be under the same management as the old station which for some time was located on Market Street, south of Market Square which was used by buses that now stop at this station.

For about six months a force of workmen under Frank E. Plankenhorn have been working on the construction of the building, which is a modern fireproof brick structure, four stories high.

UPMC Pediatrician: Preparing for Summer Break

Chioma Muoghalu, M.D. UPMC Pediatrics

As the school year wraps up, many families are looking forward to a season of sun, fun, and well-earned relaxation. Summer offers a welcome break from early mornings, packed lunches, and homework, however, it’s also a time when routines can shift dramatically. For children, these changes can affect their sleep, nutrition, safety, and even mental health.

With a little planning, families can keep summer carefree and health conscious. Here are a few ways to help your child enjoy a safe, active, and healthy summer from start to finish.

Stick to a Routine

Without the structure of the school day, it’s easy for kids (and parents) to fall into unpredictable sleep and screen habits. Maintaining a consistent routine — even if it’s a relaxed one — can help children feel secure and promote healthy development.

Try to keep wake-up and bedtimes within an hour of the school-year schedule. That way, your child gets enough sleep, and the transition back to

school in the fall will be much smoother. Include regular times for meals and snacks, physical activity, quiet time, and chores to provide a sense of stability.

Stay Sun Safe and Beat the Heat

Summer fun usually means more time outside. This is great for physical activity and mental well-being, but prolonged sun exposure and hot temperatures can pose health risks if proper precautions aren’t taken.

Staying sun safe includes wearing hats with brims, sunglasses, and lightweight long-sleeved shirts, are great in addition to an application of sunscreen. A broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher about 15 minutes before going outside is a good rule of thumb. Remember to reapply every two hours, or after swimming or sweating.

Heat-related illnesses can happen quickly in children, especially during vigorous play. Be sure your child drinks plenty of water before, during, and after outdoor activities. Encourage breaks in the shade or indoors, especially during the hottest parts of the day (approximately 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.).

Plan for Preventative Care

With busy school schedules out of the way, summer is an ideal time to catch up

Hours: Monday-Thursday 9:00-5:30 Friday 9:00-8:00 Saturday 9:00-5:30 Sunday Noon-5:00 Exit 15 of Route I-180 (Halls Pennsdale Exit) 962 Lycoming Mall Drive Muncy, PA 326-1589 546-5958 800-326-9364

on your child’s medical needs. Scheduling a well-child visit during the summer helps ensure your child is

and developing properly, and it gives you a chance to ask questions or bring up concerns.

Your pediatrician can review your child’s physical and emotional health, update any needed immunizations, and complete forms required for sports or school activities. If your child takes daily medications, it’s also a good time to review their dosages and check in about any side effects or concerns.

Preventive care is more than just a checklist. It’s an opportunity to partner with your child’s doctor to support their

health all year long. Summer should be a time of joy, exploration, and family memories. With a little preparation and awareness, you can help make it a season of safety and wellness, too. From staying hydrated in the heat to getting enough rest and keeping up with medical visits, small steps can make a big difference in your child’s health.

Support Local Farmers and Eat Healthier

When I meet new people and the topic of where I live comes up, I often mention that there are more cows than people.

As a kid, I would have been embarrassed by that statement. These days, however, it’s actually a point of pride.

In all of my travels, few places can match the beauty of Central PA. Rolling hills, forest as far as you can see, and the patchwork of farm fields for miles. And with all of that farmland comes farmstands, local produce markets, and a plethora of farm-to-table food sources. All of which gives us the opportunity to not only help support the local economy and keep our rich agricultural tradition alive, but also to eat much healthier.

Eating healthier and supporting local farmers go hand in hand. When people buy food grown close to home, they often get fresher fruits, vegetables, eggs, dairy, and meats while also helping small farms stay in business. Research and community food organizations continue to show that farmers’ markets and community-supported agriculture programs can improve access to nutritious food and reconnect people with where their food comes from. Instead of treating healthy eating and community support as separate goals, it makes sense to approach them together. Here are five practical ways to support local farmers while building better eating habits at the same time.

One of the easiest and most effective ways to support local farmers is to shop at farmers’ markets on a regular basis. These markets allow growers to sell directly to customers instead of relying entirely on wholesalers or large retail chains. That direct connection often means farmers keep a larger share of the sale, which can make a real difference for small operations. For shoppers, the benefit is freshness. Produce sold at a farmers’ market is often picked much closer to the day of purchase, which can mean better flavor and nutrient quality. Farmers’ markets also make it easier to ask questions: What is in season right now? How was this grown? What is the best way to cook it? Those conversations can help people feel more confident buying healthy foods they may not normally choose. Over time, a weekly market trip can replace less nutritious impulse shopping at the grocery store and make fresh food a regular part of your routine.

Another excellent option is joining a CSA, or community-supported agriculture program. In a CSA, customers usually pay upfront for a share of the farm’s harvest and receive a box of seasonal items each week or month. This model helps farmers because it

MEET SHEMAR & GEMINI

Meet Shemar and Gemini, who are both three year old males who get along very well with each other. Not necessarily bonded, these two were adopted out together and then returned to the shelter through no fault of their own. They are both microchipped and ready to live in a home where they will be loved and cherished. Shemar, a black short hair, is so loving and ready to be petted and will purr loudly. A bit more aloof Gemini will warm up with the patience and love needed.

Dave Bellomo

provides early financial support for seeds, labor, equipment, and other seasonal costs. It also gives farms more predictable demand. For consumers, a CSA can improve eating habits by encouraging meal planning and variety. Instead of buying the same few vegetables over and over, members may receive leafy greens, squash, herbs, root vegetables, berries, or other fresh items based on the season. That variety can help expand a person’s diet and increase fruit and vegetable intake naturally. A CSA also encourages people to cook more meals at home, which is often healthier than relying on highly processed convenience foods or takeout. Even if a family is new to farm boxes, many programs provide newsletters, recipes, and storage tips that make the transition easier.

Choosing seasonal foods is a simple habit that supports both local agriculture and better nutrition. When produce is in season locally, it is usually more abundant, more affordable, and more flavorful. Seasonal shopping also naturally leads to dietary diversity throughout the year. Instead of eating the same foods year-round, people rotate what produce they eat. For example, they might choose greens in the spring, tomatoes in the summer, squash in autumn, and root vegetables in the winter as the basis for the meals they cook. This variety matters because a diverse diet can help provide a broader range of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Seasonal eating also tends to reduce dependence on foods shipped long distances. A practical

FARMERS

way to start is to ask local vendors what is at peak quality and then plan meals around those items. For example, ripe summer produce makes it easier to prepare large salads or fresh side dishes, while colder months may lend themselves to soups, roasted vegetables, and stews. Building meals around seasonal ingredients makes healthy eating feel more natural and less forced.

can lead to major improvements in eating patterns.

Supporting local farmers does not stop at fruits and vegetables. Many communities also have local producers selling eggs, yogurt, milk, cheese, beans, honey, poultry, and grass-fed meats. Personally, I buy all of my beef from a local farm and cannot remember the last time I bought meat at the grocery store. Choosing these foods in less processed forms can improve overall diet quality and just taste better. Whole and minimally processed foods are generally easier to fit into balanced meals because they often contain less added sugar, sodium, and refined ingredients than heavily processed products. For example, local plain yogurt with fruit can be a better breakfast than a packaged pastry, and roasted local vegetables with eggs can be a healthier lunch than fast food. Buying from local producers can also help shoppers become more intentional about what they eat, since purchases are often more deliberate than grabbing random items from a shelf. This does not mean every meal needs to be perfect. It simply means filling more of the plate with recognizable, nutrient-dense foods grown or produced nearby. Small changes repeated over time

A final powerful step is to build a relationship with local farmers and use food more wisely at home. Farmers can offer practical guidance that supports healthier eating, such as how to store produce properly, how to ripen fruit, how to cook less familiar vegetables, and how long items will keep. That knowledge can prevent food from being forgotten in the refrigerator and thrown away. Reducing food waste matters because wasted food also wastes the labor, water, fuel, and time invested in growing it. Shoppers can support farmers by planning meals before they buy, freezing extra produce, using leftovers creatively, and preserving when possible. Vegetable scraps can become broth, overripe fruit can go into smoothies or oatmeal, and extra greens can be added to soups or egg dishes. When we value the food we buy and use more of it, we honor the work of the farmer while also stretching our grocery budget. In that way, healthy eating becomes not just a personal goal but a more respectful and sustainable food habit.

Supporting local farmers and eating healthier does not require dramatic lifestyle changes. They begin with small, intentional choices that grow into lasting habits. It can be buying one local item each week, visiting a farmers’ market instead of a big-box store, trying a CSA box, or planning meals around what is fresh and in season. Every purchase is a chance to invest in better food, stronger local farms, and a more resilient community.

It’s almost time to dig in the dirt. For months, it was too cold, too wet, too early to get to your garden patch but now you can hardly wait. You’ve been through the seed catalogs and picked your plants but you need to

be patient a little longer. So pass the time with these great new books…

Let’s start with something different that makes gardening even more pleasurable: bird song. Imagine a world without it and how much you’d miss it – and then read “The Feather Wars And the Great Crusade to Save America’s Birds” by James H. McCommons (St. Martin’s Press, $33.00).

In very early America, immigrants simply assumed that the abundance they found on this continent would last forever. We know better now, and so did a lot

Phyllis Denise Lee—first time local author marks her rst publishing foray with the release of “A Miracle from the Start” (published by WestBow Press).

of scientists, nature-lovers, society folks, hunters, and others who worked hard to ensure that wild birds thrived, despite the bad guys you’ll also find inside this book. It’s a story for anyone who enjoys birdsong and has feathered friends.

So you’re going to spend the rest of the spring, all of the summer, and maybe into fall, growing beautiful blooms. You don’t want to just leave them outside that whole time, do you? Of course not, so “A Year of Cut Flowers: A Life of Growing and Arranging for All Seasons” by Sarah Raven (Bloomsbury, $35.00) is a book that will guide you in bringing those blooms inside properly.

Spring isn’t just for planting, says Raven. It’s also for cultivating, nurturing, mulching, and taking time to see how you can make your home (and that of others!) beautiful and wonderfully scented with the blooms you’ll grow in your garden. Here, you’ll learn which go-to plants to have in your plot, how to make sure you’ve got color in your garden from early until frost, how to get the most of your plants, and how to keep them fresh-looking and gorgeous for a lot longer inside.

Bonus: photos! Lots of them, which will help keep you inspired while your greenery still slumbers awhile.

And when you need a welcome break from all that work, grab “Bloom,” a

novel by Robbie Couch (Gallery Books, $28.00). It’s a rom-com about Morris, who lost his husband and his zest for life, and who’s narrowed his entire existence to the history books he owns and his TV. Then there’s Sloan, Morris’s stepdaughter, who is stuck with the grief she has for her father’s death and a mother who tends to take over. And there’s Jade, a houseplant who desperately needs water, attention, and for Morris to wake up and live again. It’s a cute book, perfect for relaxing in the sun.

If these gardening books aren’t enough for you, then head to your favorite bookstore or library and ask for the gardening section. There, you’ll find books about vegetables, plants, butterflies and birds, dirt and composting and everything you need to grow something green, flowery, or edible. And be sure to look for the books, above. You’ll really dig ‘em.

Trusted with Much

By Jimmy Webb

If you are reading this, then God willing, by now I have officially married my buddy Isaac and his wife, Erin. First off, congratulations to both of you. They got married 5/29/26.

You are two incredible people, and I truly wish you a lifetime full of happiness, love, and a marriage centered around God.

I also hope I did not completely mess up the ceremony.

Just kidding … mostly.

But honestly, when they asked me to

officiate their wedding, I immediately said yes because I truly felt God calling me to do it.

Right after that, though, came the immediate panic of, “Oh my gosh … what did I just commit to?”

It took me a couple of weeks to really sit down and start writing everything out. Honestly, I did not even know where to begin.

Then one morning while I was pray-

*Rates are subject to change. Minimum

These are

ing and journaling, a verse hit me right in the face: “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.” — Luke 16:10

And from that moment on, everything started coming together.

It made me realize that Isaac and I had spent years building trust through all the little things that come with friendship:

Showing up for each other.

Supporting each other. Growing together.

Doing life side by side.

At one point, Isaac told me he looked up to me as a man, as a father, and as a follower of Christ.

Honestly … wow, man. That meant more to me than he probably realizes.

And in that moment, I understood the verse even more.

Somehow, through all the little moments over the years, Isaac trusted me with something much bigger—standing beside him and marrying him to the love of his life. That is something I will never take lightly.

But honestly, I think that verse applies to marriage just as much as it applies to friendship. Because in marriage, the little things are what hold the big thing together:

It is showing up when you say you will.

Listening even when you are tired.

Supporting each other on the hard days, not just the easy ones.

Being patient when the other person is struggling.

Checking in even when life gets busy. Choosing each other over and over

again in the middle of everything else life throws at you.

Those little moments may not seem huge at the time, but over the years they build something strong. Because when you are faithful in the little things, you can be trusted with much:

Trusted with each other’s hearts.

Trusted with each other’s dreams. Trusted through the hard days and the good ones.

Trusted to build a home together.

Trusted to raise a family together. Trusted to grow together instead of apart.

And honestly, I think that is one of the most beautiful things about marriage. Not two perfect people. Just two people choosing each other every single day.

Marriage is not built in one big moment. It is built in a thousand little ones. So keep showing up for each other, keep choosing each other, and keep putting God at the center of it all.

This article is dedicated to the Porters. You are two incredible people whom Lauren, Beau, and I are lucky to have in our lives. You both truly put others first and are always there at the drop of a hat. Thank you again for letting me officiate your special day. It is something I will never forget.

“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.” — Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

Say ‘Yes, Please’ to The Grilled Cheese of the Year: Gooey Goodness with a Protein Punch

grilled cheese sandwich isn’t just a lunchtime staple; it’s a beloved cultural icon. There is a universal magic in the combination of ooey-gooey cheese, golden bread and a little butter - but in 2026, this comfort food classic is getting a functional upgrade.

Dijon mustard “powerhouse sauce” and pressed between golden, crispy bread, this grilled cheese isn’t your ordinary melt. It has been transformed into a massive protein boost.

It’s also safe to say nostalgia is delicious and addicting, which is why Borden Cheese is sharing not one, but two, prize-worthy recipes, one of which packs a protein punch and another that’s a pure classic, perfect for spreading smiles and happy bellies.

Protein, Please: The Protein Powerhouse is the Grilled Cheese of the Year, and it’s easy to see why. It’s a protein-packed masterpiece designed for the modern appetite. Featuring a creamy, dual-cheese combo of mild cheddar and Borden Mozzarella Cheese Melts, the sandwich is melted over 5 ounces of tender sliced chicken breast and delivers more than 40 grams of protein and about 8 grams of fiber when paired with the right bread. Served with a tangy Greek yogurt and

Lycoming County Invests in Its Own Foundation

By Blair Steward

he Lycoming County Board of Commissioners met on Thursday, May 21, 2026, approving over $5.6 million in expenditures covering infrastructure, affordable housing, public safety staffing, and election operations. The session moved through a wide range of county business, with each item on the agenda carrying real consequences for residents across Lycoming County.

Among the most significant allocations approved was $984,654.76 drawn from American Rescue Plan Act funds designated for water and sewer infrastructure upgrades. The ARPA funding shows the county using federal pandemic relief dollars to support lasting community improvements. Water and sewer systems are the quiet backbone of daily life, and when they work well, communities thrive. This investment ensures that Lycoming County residents can count on the infrastructure beneath their feet to carry them forward reliably for years to come.

Commissioners also moved forward with an agreement amendment and funding allocation in support of Habitat for Humanity’s ongoing work along

Scott Street. Using local Act 137 housing funds, the county is backing the construction of six affordable, single-family homes alongside a pocket park designed for income-eligible families in the area. There is something powerful about a neighborhood taking shape one home at a time, and the Scott Street project captures that spirit well. For six families in Lycoming County, this initiative means more than a house. It means stability, ownership, and a place to belong. The pocket park woven into the project adds a layer of community connection, giving neighbors a shared space to gather and grow together.

The commissioners authorized $14,906 to fund training for election poll workers ahead of upcoming elections. Every fair and orderly election depends on the people who show up to run it, and Lycoming County is making sure those people are ready. Poll workers are the steady hands behind the curtain of democracy, and this funding ensures they are equipped with the knowledge and preparation the job requires. The county’s investment in proper training reflects a commitment to elections that residents can trust.

New staff were approved to fill key roles across several public-safety depart-

ments, with positions finalized at the county prison, the pre-release center, and the adult probation office. Each of these departments plays a distinct but connected role in how the county manages public safety and also supports individuals navigating the justice system. The pre-release center helps people step back into the community after incarceration, and fully staffed operations there make that transition more effective and supportive for everyone involved. The adult probation office depends on adequate personnel to manage caseloads carefully and to provide the oversight that keeps Lycoming County neighborhoods safe. Filling these positions means that the people who rely on these services, and the communities that surround them, have the support and supervision they need.

Taken together, the May 21 session painted a picture of a county actively investing in itself. From the nearly one-million-dollar water and sewer allocation to the carefully considered poll-worker training fund, each approval addressed a real and present community need. The $5.6 million total approved at this single session reflects the weight of responsibility the commissioners carry and the breadth of work required to keep Lycoming County moving forward.

Infrastructure carries the water that flows through kitchen taps and the sys-

tems that keep neighborhoods clean and healthy. Housing gives families a foundation to build their lives upon. Elections give every resident a voice. Public safety gives communities the confidence to flourish. Each of these pillars depends on the others, and the decisions made on May 21 strengthened all of them at once.

For the residents of Lycoming County, this meeting represents local government functioning the way it should: listening to needs, directing resources thoughtfully, and taking action with purpose. The results will not arrive all at once. They will come gradually, in the form of repaired pipes, finished homes, smooth elections, and well-staffed offices working quietly on behalf of the public. That steady, unglamorous progress is the foundation on which strong communities are built, and Lycoming County is laying it one decision at a time.

ong before craft sodas lined the shelves of every corner market and energy drinks claimed the attention of a restless generation, the forests of Lycoming County were quietly producing something far more interesting. Mountain style birch beer, with its cool wintergreen bite and its deep roots in Pennsylvania’s north central highlands, has been quenchingthirsts and stirring memories in this valley for well over a century. It is not just a drink. It is a story told one sip at a time.

time Lycoming County’s legendary lumber boom was shaking the hillsides in the late 1800s, birch beer had already earned its place as the drink of choice for the hardworking men who floated timber down the wide Susquehanna and built this region into something remarkable.

The story begins in the forest itself. Black birch trees, known to scientists as sweet birch, grow in generous abundance across the ridges and wooded hollows that cradle Williamsport and the townships that surround it. Native Americans were the first to recognize the quiet treasure hiding beneath that smooth dark bark, tapping the trees each spring when the sap ran cold and sweet and full of promise. European settlers adopted the practice eagerly, and by the

What separates mountain-style birch beer from anything you might pull off a grocery store shelf today is a matter of both ingredients and soul. The mountain variety draws its flavor from oil of wintergreen, carefully extracted from birch bark and young twigs through a slow distillation process that cannot be rushed. The result is a sharper, more layered taste than anything produced at scale in a factory, with a cooling finish that feels perfectly designed for someone who has just spent a long afternoon hiking a ridge, working a field, or simply sitting on a porch watching the hills turn gold in the late summer light. Commercial birch beers often substitute artificial flavoring, and anyone raised on the real thing can spot the difference instantly.

identity more completely than Frozen Run White Birch Beer. Bottled for decades by the Frozen Run Bottling Works right here in Williamsport, it was a crystal clear soda unlike anything else on the market. Where most birch beers ran dark, Frozen Run ran clear, a pale and sparkling drink with a sharp wintergreen punch that announced itself the moment the cap came off. Its bottle bore the image of a black bear, a fitting symbol for a drink born from the same wild Pennsylvania landscape that sheltered those animals in the ridges above town. The brand took its name from a stream near Ralston, where miners in the 1830s used winter frost to fracture iron ore from the earth, a detail that speaks to just how deeply this drink is woven into the working history of this county.

For generations, Frozen Run White Birch Beer was more than a regional soda. It was a landmark. People drove out of their way for it. They brought it to family gatherings, packed it into coolers headed for hunting camps, and introduced it to anyone unlucky enough to have grown up somewhere else. When corporate acquisitions eventually carried the brand into the hands of Keurig Dr. Pepper and

production ceased, the loss was felt quietly but genuinely across North Central Pennsylvania. Some things cannot simply be replaced by whatever sits next to them on a shelf.

The enduring appeal of mountain-style birch beer in this region runs deeper than nostalgia. It is a living connection to the forests, the turning seasons, and the long line of Pennsylvanians who learned to find real pleasure in what grew around them. In a county that carries genuine pride in its outdoor heritage, its hunting camps tucked into the hills, its cold trout streams, and its miles of wooded ridgeline, birch beer carries something that cannot be produced anywhere else. It carries the flavor of belonging.

Younger generations are finding their way back to what their grandparents never abandoned. The growing interest in locally made, naturally flavored food and drink has given mountain-style birch beer a second moment worth celebrating. Lycoming County understood this long before it became a trend. The forests are still standing. The recipe still works. The valley, much like its most beloved drink, has always known exactly who it is.

any years ago, when he was very little, my now-adult son would see me carrying around a weird-sounding book called To Kill a Mockingbird. Upon reaching teen years, he was surprised to learn that it was a novel; as a tot, he’d always assumed it was a hunting manual!

Except for the episode with “Ol’ OneShot,” the nearest that book ever comes to hunting is when its hero, Atticus Finch, tells his kids they can shoot all the jays they want; but of course, he avers, “It’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”

Here’s hoping it’s not a sin to finish one — because Webb’s “Weird Words” is about to offer its fifth and final column on oddball vocab from Harper Lee’s bestseller.

Here’s another half-dozen, in the order in which they appear toward the end:

Champertous (CHAM-pur-tuss [first syllable like champ], adj.) – From the somewhat more common champerty, this rare adjective — used in Chap. 16by Maycomb’s Judge Taylor — relates to a sketchy legal situation in which someone provides financial support to a plaintiff or defendant, in hope of sharing the proceeds from any legal settlement.

You may be surprised to learn that the

term is related to champion: Both words derive from the French champs, meaning “field” (as in Champs Elysee — or “Elysian Fields”; it also gave us “camp”).

Champion literally means “winner of the field,” while champerty translates to “produce” — or, as it were, profit from the field.

Chiffarobe (SHIFF-uh-robe, noun) – “A piece of furniture having both drawers and space for hanging clothes” (dictionary.com).

Even though this word also figures prominently in Flannery O’Connor’s Wise Blood, Lee forever confused me by misspelling chifforobe — when Mayella Ewell claims she asked her neighbor to chop one up for firewood.

The term is a “blend” — mixing pieces of two words (like brunch and smog) Here, it combines the last syllable of wardrobe with chiffonier (shih-fuh-NEER) — that latter being a bureau, or chest of drawers.

Pot liquor (noun) – Another term that confused me at first, because in Chap. 23, narrator Scout insists that her father loves the stuff — though she just finished telling us he doesn’t drink. As it turns out, this phrase has nothing to do with “liquor” per se: Emerging from the novel’s Southern setting, it actually means broth or liquid left in a pot after cooking meat or vegetables.

Yaws (noun) – From Merriam-Webster:“a contagious tropical disease especially of

children caused by a spirochete closely resembling the causative agent of syphilis and marked by infectious ulcerative skin lesions with later bone involvement.”Yikes!

This dreadful affliction comes up in Chap. 24 — not because native Alabamans are contracting it, but in the context of a local missionary working with a fictitious African tribe called “the Mrunas.”

And finally, in chaps. 24 and 28 we find two relatively familiar terms that both take on a different meaning connected with food:

Charlotte is any of several hot or cold desserts made by “lining a mold with cake or bread and filling it with fruit, whipped cream, custard, or gelatin” (dictionary.com). And divinity — when not referring to a higher power — is a fluffy white fudge. How

the former treat came to be called charlotte remains uncertain; but the latter is clearly so named because it tastes, well … heavenly

And since we’re now among the stars, I’ll finish by explaining one more linguistic oddity near the end: Ad Astra Per Aspera

That’s the name of the climactic pageant honoring Maycomb County — the cast of which included Scout as a ham (one of Maycomb’s many agricultural products).

The slogan, a common Latin adage, translates thus: “to the stars through hardship.”

I guess that’s one way to sum up our five-column odyssey through Harper Lee’s vocabulary. Not sure we ever reached celestial heights — but there was certainly lots of asperity

You can look that one up yourself.

Out to Pasture

ust when I thought my household décor was in vogue and on par with the latest design trends, the universe had the audacity to inform me otherwise. I know this because I watch entirely too much HGTV. Apparently, my kitchen cabinetry is dated, even though its appearance and functionality are ideal in my mind. I love the soft close feature that each cupboard boasts and the ridiculously spacious Super Susans nestled in the corners. Even the key cabinet, where we now house all sorts of things aside from keys, is beyond convenient. Never mind the enormous drawers hidden beneath our 34-square foot island that can

•

And the sturdy exterior of the cabinetry, a beautiful Brazilian stained quarter sawn oak that makes my heart smile every time I enter the kitchen, extends all the way to the ceiling so that I no longer have to wonder what to do with the worthless space (i.e. dust trap) atop the cupboards. Plus, I can now store even more — I just have to haul a stepladder in to make it happen. And yes, the countertops, island, floor and paint all hail from a decidedly warm and earthy color palette — egregiously far from what is considered trendy by today’s standards. Everything, it seems, is either pristine white or muted gray nowadays. Where’s the fun in that — let alone the whimsy?

each hold 100 pounds or more. And because I own way too many pots and rogue Rubbermaid containers, those drawers are perfectly suited to manage it all. I can’t even begin to express how thrilled I was, and continue to be, with the spaciousness of almost every aspect of our kitchen that we renovated over 13 years ago. Even the junk drawer has room for all our junk — which is really saying something.

What’s more, popular kitchen/bathroom hardware, fixtures and lighting are mostly brushed brass of late, something I tried so

hard to eradicate from my home since it smacked of the ‘80s. Are we going backwards here? Are bell-bottoms next? That said, wallpaper has been resurrected from the dead, evidently. I cringe every time I see the hosts of the Property Brothers or Love It or List It decide to add it to various rooms as some sort of magical feature because I distinctly remember becoming enraged while attempting to remove every stitch of it from my home. At one point, we had to hire someone to save us from ourselves by doing the job for us. Thank you, Ed Gair. It’s no surprise that the entire topic of home improvement has always been a point of contention between my husband and me. We rarely agree on the specifics of how to renovate, so when the stars and planets align so that we are, in fact, on the same page,

we immediately put the changes into effect. That’s how we ended up with gorgeous dark walnut-hued vinyl plank flooring (that looks exactly like hardwood) in our living room and dining room. Amazingly, it resists scratches, stains and water. Good thing — because we had a little dog that whizzed on the floor indiscriminately for years. Unfortunately, though, we can’t seem to agree on whether to replace our hideous pink carpet in the bedrooms that my husband swears is salmon with more carpet or perhaps more vinyl. He is of the opinion that we should install more carpet (potentially terrible carpet) while I think vinyl plank flooring makes more sense because it would contribute to the overall flow in our home. Of course, I learned that term by watching HGTV. Either way, we’re doing it wrong according

to the home décor experts. Invariably, the folks on many of the episodes prefer lighter-colored flooring. And they almost never opt for carpeting, much to my husband’s disappointment.

Further, I’m sure if they had their way regarding our home, they’d advise us to knock down walls, move the stove and reorient our stairwell in order to create a more open concept and better feng shui. Yes, I learned those terms on the network, too.

No doubt, that very same network would likely be prepared to put my precious design ideas out to pasture, long before it’s time. Who knows; maybe the universe is right.

Swimsuit Trends

Summer is calling. If you have kids who require care over the summer months, chances are you’ve booked the camps, scheduled the vacation, and maybe even set a daily itinerary.

Now for the fun (or not so fun, depending on your view) of checking in with your swimsuit collection to see if it’s up to summer snuff this year. Bathing suits tend to go one of two ways. There’s the functional aspect for your activity level, versus the more playful, vacation-ready, escapist mode. Let’s run through some upcoming swimwear trends for the summer for potential updates to your options.

Looking at the functional aspect of swimsuits depends on your activities. Water skiing, tubing, kayaking, and daily swims should all be considered when assessing if your swimwear is durable and comfortable. Luckily, trends like sporty nostalgic styles, thicker straps, and athletic femininity speak to functional needs this upcoming season. As sportswear athletics leans towards more coverage than you find in board shorts, tankinis, and mismatched tops and bottoms. So, if your summer plans are heavy on watersports, then I’d recommend the comfort and quality of a board short, like Lands’ End’s SunShade UPF 50+ Board Shorts with Panty. These

shorts offer sun protection in a water-repellent finish for fast dry and come with pockets. Pair them with a supportive bikini top or rashguard for a beach vacay or weekend at the lake.

Speaking of rashguards, they are no longer just for surfers. Many sportswear brands offer rashguards that are as stylish as they are protective. Dick’s Sporting Goods features the Calia Women’s Swim Zip Rashguard in standard shades like pink, red, and black, as well as fun patterns such as tropical floral and stripes. This top also has UPF 50+ to shield your skin from harmful UV rays and easily pairs with their Mid Rise Swim Bottoms. And as you pair up separate pieces, consider mixing prints and colors. I’d take the striped rashguard in black and white and contrast it with a polka-dotted bottom in the same colors.

Another fun trend in line with mixing and matching is family-matched swimwear. Livy and Kate Clothing has swim collections featuring tops, bottoms, and one pieces for adults and kids in coordinated colors and prints. You can get matching trunks as well as two and one-piece suits for the

whole family in quality fabric. Old Navy also has family matching swimsuits. Their American Summer collection can deck out the kiddos, including babies, in stars and stripes this 4th of July, while grownups can get solid-colored pieces in coordinating red and blue.

The idea of mixing and matching brings up the age-old conundrum: to bikini or not to bikini? Personally, I’m hands down not, at least not a true bikini that ties and exposes the belly button. I am hands up for a two-piece bathing suit like the Scoop tankini from Athleta, paired with the matching swim bottom or swim short. If you are in the market for a bikini, look to J.Crew and their Lana bikini tops and bottoms in classic sculpt for maximum support.

Speaking of support, I recently discovered Shapellx, a size-inclusive brand offering shapewear, activewear, and swimwear. Their Smart Sculpt technology features inner power mesh for smoothing and an elastic rubber band underbust for chest support in their one-pieces. I’m drawn to their Plunge Cutout Swimsuit in red, black, or yellow for its mix of flattering silhouette as well as functional wearability. Swimsuits For All is another brand with supportive and sculpting swimwear. Their Chlorine Resistant Spliced Tank One Piece has a power mesh shelf bra and is fully lined with power mesh tummy-control lining. Plus, as the name suggests, it is made for days in the pool, and the fabric provides

UPF 50 UV protection.

We’ve talked a lot about functionality, now let’s turn briefly to suits for the sake of style. This season is seeing fashion suits with embellishments as well as subtle details. Shell jewelry is nothing new to summer, but it has seemed to be hitting a new peak. You can see this effect in bathing suits like Target brand Shade & Shore’s Shell Print Anchor Charme One Piece with its nautical-inspired print. Or take LSPACE x Anthropologie’s Sunrise Shell Bikini Top with cups cut in a shell shape. Or simply wear your standard one-piece with some seashell-inspired jewelry and a sunhat to have a mocktail by the pool.

Lastly, coverups. In summers past, you may have thrown on an oversized tee and denim cutoffs over your bathing suit. This year, what’s trending in the cover-up department are sheer, sophisticated pieces. Soma’s Caftan Cover-Up (currently on sale as of this writing) features embroidered details and a one-size-fits-most silhouette for an elegant poolside style. For a more tropical resort look, there’s Loft’s Beach Palm Mesh Maxi Swimsuit Coverup, rendered in a light cotton blend mesh and tasseled split neck line. For an alternative take to sheer, there’s Lands’ End’s Open Knit Cover-up Dress, which has an airy crocheted, easyfit mini dress for a preppy, sporty take on swimsuit style. Or source a sheer caftan from a thrift shop to bring a bit of elegance to your beachwear look.

SATURDAY, JUNE 20TH 9AM 1237 Route 220 Highway, Muncy Valley Pa. 17758

he alarm sounded off at 3:57 a.m., and after some last-minute packing, I was headed down the driveway at 4:54 for the 7-hour drive to Kazabazua, Quebec.

I had only slept for a couple of hours after packing the night before, but the excitement of what I hoped was to come kept me alert as I headed north.

All went well until I reached the Canadian border, and both the United States and Canadian customs folks were way understaffed, which resulted in a 3-hour delay for paperwork in registering my firearm.

I was headed to Quebec for a spring bear hunt, and I had hoped to get to camp in time to hunt that evening. Normally, hunters are taken to their various stands around 2 o’clock in the afternoon, but the border delay resulted in my arrival at camp a little after 4 p.m.

Fortunately, there was a nearby stand that I was able to go to, and I laughed at myself when I looked down and saw that I hadn’t even had time to change out of my travel clothes, but merely slipped on my hunting boots and my fluorescent orange coat for the evening sit. It was 4:23 when I arrived

at the stand, climbed up into the elevated box blind, and uncased and loaded my rifle for the hunt.

In Quebec, as with most other Canadian provinces, hunting for black bears is usually done at a stand with a nearby bait. This evening at this location, the bait barrel was located at the end of a cleared pathway about 70 yards away, and there was a mix of sapling-stage and mature aspen, white birch, cedars, and white pine trees on either side of the shooting lane. After letting me out at the blind, my trusty hunting guide, Loretta, freshened up the bait with a mix of peanut butter, corn, blueberry powder, fryer oil, icing, Jello, and maple syrup to sweeten up the attractant.

The legal shooting hours ended 30 minutes after sunset, so for this evening, it was legal to shoot until 9 p.m. I adjusted my scope for the distance I would be shooting and made sure I was in a comfortable position for the long wait.

Several Canada jays, a few ravens, and a black squirrel entertained me as I sat as quietly as possible in wait for a bear.

The only negative was the black flies that were buzzing about and occasionally landing on any exposed skin and feasting on the blood of this newly arrived hunter! I shook

my head in disgust that I had not thought to pack my ThermaCell heat-activated insect repellent.

At 7:28, I caught movement to my right, and there he came. A large male black bear waddled into view a mere 50 yards away. I remained still as he reached the bait barrel, plopped down, and began reaching his paw into the barrel for a paw-full of sweets. Unfortunately, there was a large post that was in a direct line to the bear, which made it impossible to take a clear shot, so I steadied the rifle on the ledge of the window and turned on the illuminated reticle on the scope – then tried to relax as I waited for a clear shot.

He took his good old time munching away, then finally got up on all fours and walked around behind the barrel and into the woods, where he lay down 30 yards into the woods, again not allowing a clear shot. Five minutes later, he got back up and walked back toward the barrel. He stopped short and was sniffing the ground as I settled the crosshairs just forward of his shoulder blades and gently squeezed the trigger. With the single shot from the Weatherby .300 Magnum, the bear dropped in his tracks. At 7:41, my hunt was over, and the work began.

It was a struggle to load the bear into the bed of the ATV, and the black flies were relentless as they buzzed around in a cloud all around us.

Back in camp, it was determined that the bear weighed in at 475 pounds! It was estimated that when he had gone into hibernation several months earlier, he would have tipped the scales at a whopping 550 pounds! The outfitter had this bear on trail cameras over the last couple of years, but ‘As Luck Would Have It,’ my encounter was the first time he had shown up this season!

It was definitely one of the shortest hunts I have ever been on. The hide will make a beautiful rug, the skull will make a great display, the fat will be rendered down into tallow, and the meat will provide some excellent hormone-free, government-approved, chemical-free, free-range organic meals for months to come!

Ihave always been interested in wildlife, and I have no doubt that this has had a lot to do with why I have spent the last 40 years of my life as a wildlife artist and illustrator, and as an outdoor writer.

While the hunting seasons are nonexistent right now, I am still constantly on the lookout for whatever wildlife I can see.

Unfortunately, a lot of those sightings are dead animals along the highway. I suspect deer are one of the most common sightings, but I wouldn’t be surprised if opossums didn’t come in second.

Besides seeing them dead on the roadways, I also see them on the cameras I have posted around my home, but those sightings are almost always after dark and for

Ken Hunter

good reason, since opossums are, for the most part, nocturnal.

The opossum is an interesting animal in that it is one of the world’s oldest living mammals and the only marsupial on our continent.

Marsupials are born before they are well developed, and they continue their growth and development while still in a pouch on the mother’s abdomen.

Newborns are hairless and blind and about a half inch in length. An average of eight newborns are housed in the mother’s fur-lined pouch, which is also equipped with mammary glands. What’s interesting is that when a young opossum attaches itself to the mammary gland and begins

to nurse, the nipple enlarges and forms a bulb on the end, which swells in the baby’s mouth, helping it to stay attached. It takes eight to nine weeks for the young to open their eyes and let go of the mammary glands, and they begin leaving the pouch. When being preyed upon, opossums may climb a tree or hide in a hole in the ground, but they may also “play possum.”

During this playing-dead period, the opossum lies limp and motionless on its side. During this “dead” period, the eyes and mouth remain open, the tongue hangs outside the mouth, and the breathing becomes shallow. This “dead” state can last from a few minutes to several hours. Because some predators don’t eat dead prey, this playing possum may help to survive an attack.

Opossums are omnivorous and eat just about anything they can find. No doubt that’s why we see so many dead opossums on the

highways since there’s plenty of other dead animals to make a meal. Opossums also feed on lizards, snakes, toads, bird eggs, and any young, small animals they can get. They will also eat plant foods like a variety of berries, grapes, mushrooms, acorns, and even cultivated plants. Don’t be surprised if you also spot them eating your garbage at home.

Speaking of opossums eating insects, someone mentioned to me the other day that they read that opossums also devour ticks; eating ticks in your backyard would certainly be a positive and good reason to have opossums roaming around the yard at night.

Keep your eyes open, especially during these spring days, since when the young stop nursing for short periods of time, they can be seen riding on the backs of their mother, gripping her fur with their claws; an interesting sight that I have yet to spot.

Tom Marquette, AU-002855L, 570/916-6903

It was an overcast, cool May afternoon. Intermittent showers and a persistent wind made any outdoor activities uncomfortable. The May flowers that dared to show up after an April of similar circumstances shivered on their stems as overnight temperatures dropped into the freeze warning zone. Enough already. Simply stated, it wasn’t much fun.

In a familiar metaphor dating back to 1907, the advice “if life hands you a lemon, why just make the lemonade” was presented. With the gloomy day on the outside, this day’s lemonade was about to come from a household task that had been put off for many months, or perhaps years, in the ‘let’s do this’ stage.

The project: attack the attic. After six decades of marriage, with college and military service preceding, keepsakes had been piling up, somewhat organized in cardboard boxes by each of the various life experiences we had encountered. That task itself was monumental, made much more challenging by the small half-attic with a sloping ceiling that prevented one from standing up, especially someone of my height.

A few years ago, Jean had double knee replacement surgery, eliminating her

from crawling through the cramped quarters. So, in I went, like a miner descending the shaft with hopes of retrieving buried treasure and returning it to the surface.

With flashlight in hand and crawling on my stomach, the expedition to retrieve the first few boxes was accomplished in short order. Like an early gold miner panning through the soil for glitter, the ‘retrieving stage’ slowed the task to a snail’s speed.

The treasures found were equal to a bonanza. There were college textbooks, grade reports, commencement announcements, congratulatory notes, and the scorebook I kept from the season in which I broadcast the University of Houston baseball team’s games on the radio. U.S. Air Force military findings included citations earned, uniform stripes, base assignment orders, and discharge papers.

Celebrating the birth of daughter Denise and son Doug, there were dozens of photos, baby books reliving first words and milestones, greeting cards sent to the kids observing markers, and one unopened envelope addressed to Douglas Lowery. Once opened, the contents revealed a card celebrating his arrival and a five-dollar bill! That money has since been given

Scott Lowery

to Doug, but minus the 57 years of interest it could have accrued.

After reading seven paragraphs of reminiscence, the question may be asked — I thought this was a sports column! It is heading in that direction, with a personal twist.

In those early softball-playing days, I was fortunate to play on two state championship teams. One was a slow-pitch team in Houston, Texas, the other a fast-pitch team at Loring Air Force Base, Maine. Describing Loring’s run to the championship was a newspaper account detailing how I had hit a triple and scored the game’s only run, scampering home on a passed ball in a 1-0 win. That brought back great memories, although the “scampering” days have long since vanished.

Loring AFB was located at the very northern tip of Maine, seven hours driving time from Boston and my beloved Red Sox. A few trips were made south to Beantown, but the entire state seemed to be comprised of Red Sox rooters. It was the 1967 season, known as “the impossible dream,” when the franchise made a significant turnaround, winning the American League championship and a trip to the World Series.

The goldmine inside one of those cardboard boxes contained the October 2 through October 13, 1967 issues of The Boston Globe detailing in all its glory the Red Sox’s remarkable run. Holding those newspapers in my hand almost seemed

like I was back in northern Maine again. Among other gems found in that box were The Globe’s issues describing the days surrounding the June 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. Also discovered were copies of the Champaign-Urbana Courier, July 21, 1969, Illinois newspaper with the banner headline ‘One Giant Leap puts two men on moon!” – as astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history.

One of the wonderful things sports can provide is a bond between parents and children over the love of the game. In our household, baseball has been one of those things. For Doug, it was the Atlanta Braves’ Hank Aaron’s pursuit of Babe Ruth’s home run record that provided lasting memories.

As I continued to uncover the cardboard boxes’ treasures, it seemed like 1974 all over again. Inside was an April 9, 1974, copy of the Williamsport Sun-Gazette with the sports page headline “Aaron (715) New Sultan of Swat”. Accompanying that was an April 20, 1974, commemorative issue of The Sporting News, with Aaron and Ruth gracing its cover, detailing that baseball’s historic feat.

Since that gray May day discovery, only those two boxes have been opened; seven remain, probably safe from unearthing until cooler days prevail. It was a task all too long put off, but one that produced a cascade of memories so very much worth the effort.
