We had some wicked wind during the week. I saw a gust of 25.4 mph. Lots of frost and some sun too. Maybe Mother Nature is telling us something. We’ve been very lucky so far. Almost the end of November and can’t complain. Just hope it stays nice for Thanksgiving and Christmas for those who will be traveling.
It gets dark so early, the other night it was 6 p.ml and I thought it was time for bed. Makes for a real dreary day.
St. Vladimir’s Church has pierogies for sale the first and third Sunday of the month. They can be picked up at the Church Hall from Noon to 1 p.m. To order call 732-221-2803.
Happy Birthday to some fine folks out there who will be celebrating. Serenity Laird, 23rd; Parker Schiele, 24th and Cassidy Brown, 30th. Hope you all have a nice day.
Did you know you can use Listerine as a deodorant? My report says it really does work. It’s great for fighting odors Dab some on a cotton ball and gently rub it in your arm pits. Give it a try!
Joe and Diane Fanning, along with Molly, Landenberg, spent a few days at their home here.
Got your Christmas shopping done? There’s still time and there are local businesses to get those nice gifts for your loved ones. Shop local and give them the support.
Civic dues are now due. See Kathy Isett or give her a call at 610-413-6439 to renew or to join the Civic Association. Only a buck and would be nice for some of the younger ones to get involved with helping. Older folks are also welcome.
Hope everyone is feeling really good, with the Holidays on the horizon. No fun being under the weather at this special time of year. I see some folks are getting their Christmas decorations up and they look very festive and bright. Love seeing all the displays for the season. I know it’s not even Thanksgiving yet, but if you’re in the mood for Christmas, go for it! Won’t hurt anyone and may brighten up your day.

My family is getting together for Thanksgiving in 2024. My brother and his wife along with one of his 3 daughters and a nephew (son of my sister) are driving from Massachusetts to hike at Ricketts Glen. As it happens to most families with the surname Lopez, we are curious of the origin and of such a place. While we plan to hike in the park on Wednesday afternoon, we thought it might be interesting to get to know the town even if just to say we were in a town with a long-lost relative of ours. I am sure we could trace it all the way back to Spain, but records are probably obscure or hard to obtain for the faint of time to search. Anyway, thanks for the interesting website!
