A Very Busy Week

An early morning fire on Monday, the 20th, burned down a garage on the Galovich farm in Susquehanna Township.









This praying mantis sculpture was once part of a extermination company along Route 30 in Somerset County.


This old barn sits along Route 711 north, just outside of Ligonier, PA.

Old steel mill, Johnstown, PA


Twice a year, this area is either filled with bikers or musical enthusiasts, or both, as the case may be. Seen here is the Johnstown train station. In June Thunder in the Valley takes over the area and in September it hosts Johnstown FolkFest.


Tioga Street Market, a mom and pop operation in the boro of Westmont, PA.


Johnstown, PA from ground level.


Monument to Michael Strank, one of the Marines who raised the flag on Iwo Jima, 61 years ago today (23Feb06).




Even as the Olympics go on in Torino, Italy, The Pennsylvania Special Olympics Winter hockey games are held on the campus of Saint Francis University.


Blair County Vs. Berks County


Clinton County Vs. Blair County


This is the true spirit of the Special Olympics.


The Catalyst


This is the catalyst without all the movement. It is part of our gravity fed oil-burner system.

I grew up in Waynesburg, PA, and used to visit my grandparents in West Mont every summer. I was just writing a blog post about some of those memories. They lived around the corner from the Tioga St. Market, and I used to go there every summer morning and get a fudgesicle! The picture brought a big smile to me, thank you! :)
