With the temperatures floating around the 50s and 60s with no rain, the last week has been my kind of fall weather. Will it last?? I doubt it.
If I would have waited for another 5 minutes, 2 more horses would have walked into the frame. I might have been a mile or so west of Cresson, PA on Old Route 22 when I stoppped to shoot this picture.
A trio of Norfolk Southern D9-40CW's pull a line of cars down the mainline passing through Cresson. I think I've found a new place from which to shoot trains from.
It's been several years since I stopped to shoot the Basilica of St. Michael the Archangel in Loretto, PA.
Dear Santa:
I've been a good boy almost all year, for a change, so if you could see fit to visit this year, here is a picture of the only thing I would like you to bring me.
November 3rd was election day in Pennsylvania and I covered the race for judge in Cambria County. Unfortunately, the candidate that I covered didn't win.
State Representative Gary Haluska of the 74th District visits with candidate for Cambria County Judge Gary Jubas of Nicktown, PA at his election night party to await election results at the Ebensburg Country Club.
Assistant District Attorney Gary Jubas, candidate for Cambria County Judge, as he was interviewed by WJAC-TV Channel 6 News out of Johnstown, PA.
Returning home after a road trip with my daughter to a job fair in Monroeville, PA, we stopped at the Jimmy Stewart Airport in Indiana, PA to see my friend Todd, who of course was not in his office. However, I did find this 1946 Aeronca 7AC sitting on the tarmac. It looks like it has a new wing cover.

Blacklick Valley senior halfback Ted Worthington goes around the outside for a gain of 4.
Brenden Julock breaks through the Glendale defensive line for a nice gain.
I really like this picture because it makes it look like I was part of the game when I shot it. It is one of nine frames that capture what turned out to be a solo tackle of Dylan Stiles by Glendale's #20, Luke Westover.
Blacklick Valley's first of three unanswered touchdowns in the first half.
As these guys were heading towards me, I started to think about hiding behind the cheerleaders for protection.
The first of the Veterans' Day activities that I covered were at my own home Post 506 in Carrolltown, PA.
The rifle squad is composed of members from several local VFW and American Legion Posts who arrange to participate in each other's Veterans Day ceremonies. The squad travels to various memorials during the course of the day.
After leaving the services in Carrolltown, I went to Patton to participate in the services at the Veterans Memorial located in the community park. This is one of the better attended services in the area.

notice front and center of the glendale band - a conveniently extended digit makes for a great high school prank.
