For those of you always working for the weekend.
Occasionally I forget that this is a Pennsylvania-centric blog. I usually catch myself when something like 8 posts in a row aren’t celebrating the Keystone State in any way. Now, in my own defense, when I created this very Pennsylvania-centric blog, I purported to not only feature my home state, but easy trips to take
Let’s face it, our winters have sucked lately. As a fan of snow, and snow activities, I’m finding this whole global warming thing to be a massive inconvenience, as it’s really cutting into my cross-country skiing time. Anyhow, this last week we’ve finally been blessed with a solid snowstorm that’s managed to stick around for
You know what’s a great word to describe our wonderful Keystone State? Underrated. You never see Pennsylvania topping any “best of” or “must see” lists, but it’s never at the bottom either. We have great regional food, great food scenes, amazing beer, phenomenal hiking, a great central locale, and two of the most livable (ie:
I’ve figured out the best strategy for gift buying: purchase a gift card for an activity that you’d like to do, and then gift it to whomever is entitled gifts for whatever occasion, promising them that you’ll be there at their side when they want to redeem it. Foolproof. This is both a short look
Every once in a while I really overestimate how good of shape I’m in. Now to give myself credit, I probably am in the best shape I’ve been in for a long time-that being said, I’ve learned that I am not well equipped to snowshoe up a mountain in over 3 feet of snow. I
I associate New Jersey with many things. Some are good: Sea Isle City, The Jersey Shore (I mean this with all sincerity: seasons 1 & 2 were priceless trash pleasure-it sucked once they realized they were famous), and my boy Bruce. Some aren’t as good: the smell of garbage, people whose life is The Jersey Shore, and girls who
I spent this past weekend in NYC (or more accurately, Jersey City, with one night out in NYC) which didn’t give me a lot to write about (which is completely fine). I mean, I had a great time (and might possibly still be hungover-4am last calls are not your friend at age 28) but it was much more
September is almost always a lull for me. It’s the first month back to work which always leaves me exhausted, so exhausted that instead of getting out of work on Friday and rushing headfirst into the weekend I sometimes find myself in bed and completely zonked out by 8 or 9. I’m also usually pretty broke by
With the impending official arrival of summer, I wanted to write a post about all the great kayaking and camping trips Pennsylvania has to offer. I went to reference the post I “wrote” about my trip kayaking down the Delaware last year and found that the post, while started, had never came to fruition. Looking back, it makes sense, as
Summer is right around the corner and it’s time to start planning your beach getaway. While you may want to take a whole week and go to a quintessential beach locale like Cape Cod or the Outer Banks, it’s always good to have an easy and local beach trip in your arsenal. My suggestion is
