Need To Catch Up

Maintaining a blog and there are not many days that I don't post something it is hard to keep up with every thing that is going on in the area that everyone wants to hear about.  There are many of you that phone me,  text me, e-mail me and then there are the people when they run into me in life everyday will say did you know  this or that.  I want to thank each and everyone of you for what ever participation you have that helps me with the information passed  each day.  I just can't be everywhere  and with Legion PA announcing  taking up time during the summer I see Legion ball but other things I don't so I am grateful anytime you put me on a trail to let the world know what is going on in this area.  Let's see if we can catch up on a few things.
