Hershey Trip—The Last Day—Funck’s and Chocolate World

The final day of our Hershey trip meant we’d be heading home. We made the most of our morning at our hotel in the waning hours. I didn’t swim but I made it to the arcade which was on my floor (it was to the right when you came out of the elevator). You needContinue reading “Hershey Trip—The Last Day—Funck’s and Chocolate World”

Hershey Trip—Saturday—TSO Concert and Macaroni Grill

The second day of our Hershey trip was the best, because it was the day of the concert. It was a full day that started with breakfast at the hotel. Breakfast was all right, but nothing to write home about. In past hotel stays, I always liked making my own Belgian waffles but haven’t doneContinue reading “Hershey Trip—Saturday—TSO Concert and Macaroni Grill”

Hershey Trip—First Night—Hershey 🍫 Sweet Lights

On Friday, we arrived at our hotel around 5:30 and got checked in. As soon as we got our rooms, we made plans for what we wanted to do. We ate a big lunch in Breezewood at Bob Evans, so we weren’t in a hurry to eat. I looked up information on the drive-thru HersheyContinue reading “Hershey Trip—First Night—Hershey 🍫 Sweet Lights”

First Snow ❄️ of the Season

Judging by the weather forecast on Thursday, it’s apparent that winter has arrived in the Ohio Valley. If you were watching the game on Thursday night, how about that snow that fell during the game. It reminded me of the blizzard that hit Philadelphia during the game in 2013 against Detroit. Your opinion on theContinue reading “First Snow ❄️ of the Season”

It Was A Dark & Stormy Night

After two mild, yet rainy, days to start off the workweek, our weather changed drastically on Wednesday. We started out the day warm, and then temperatures fell. We went from 60s and showers and thunderstorms, to 30s and a brisk wind. It was a crazy weather day that saw tornadoes and severe weather, and aContinue reading “It Was A Dark & Stormy Night”

Looking Back at Friendsgiving

On Monday’s Holiday Bakjng Championship, the first half of the snow centered around Friendsgiving. The bakers made dishes to take to a Friendsgiving party at someone’s home or apartment. Watching this brought me back to a few years when I attended my first Friendsgiving party in 2021. My “sister” had planned an event the SaturdayContinue reading “Looking Back at Friendsgiving”

Five Years and Writing!

A milestone is defined as a significant event in your life. Often a milestone marks the start of a new chapter. For example, the day I graduated from high school was a milestone in my life. The day I received my Distinguished Toastmaster plaque was a milestone in my life. Some of the synonyms thatContinue reading “Five Years and Writing!”

The Monday Sports and Weather Page

The Steelers win and the Chiefs lose, making for a great weekend of football. Light-Up Night in downtown Pittsburgh will have a festive feel to it. If you’re going down there Saturday night, bundle up. It’s uncertain how much snow we’ll see later this week, but my trip to Somerset en route to Hershey couldContinue reading “The Monday Sports and Weather Page”
