    The Lycoming Creek Anglers’ Derby0 b6m1w

    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

  • Summer Fragrance0 5g4d4p

    Personal fragrance comes in many forms and, for my money, is the final touch on any outfit. While I’m a firm believer in having a signature scent, I also think the change of season lends itself to switching out your go-to perfume for a fresh musk to match your warmer-weather looks. Think about it: does

    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

    It’s That Crappie Time of the Year0 5v6y

    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

    Before I get to my Memorial Day thoughts, I have a quick business item to cover. Recently, I’ve been asked where the Webb Weekly is moving to.

    This weekend, we will be observing Memorial Day. It is the weekend that generally ushers in the summer with picnics and other festivities, but many have forgotten Memorial Day’s true meaning.

  • Millionaire Mountain0 91vg

    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

  • The Power of Protein0 w141z

    There are no miracles or shortcuts when it comes to healthy eating. Fad diets, supplements, meal replacers, superfoods, and metabolism boosters all come and go. At the end of the day, regardless of your fitness, wellness, or beauty goals, nothing can replace cooking for yourself with whole ingredients for the recommended daily doses of vitamins

    Missing the Target0 265s

    I was doing some target shooting the other day, and missing the target is not something we want to have happen.

    I enjoy listening to Lycoming County Director of Voter Services, Forrest Lehman, every time he speaks in public.

  • Cubs or White Sox? Catholic or Christian?0 1y2md

    As I watched, listened, and then researched the events unfolding before my very eyes, the one emotion I felt the most was hope.
