TBW Daily Diary

Finally, a little sunshine . . . Melissa Herman of Bethesda, Md., in town to visit with friends in the Governor's Office and came by to greet Bob and me. Older readers will remember Melissa (a Millersburg native) as the weather girl on WHP-TV some years ago (I won't say how many, gentleman that I am). She also had an evening talk show on WHP that focused on arts and culture and I was fortunate to be a guest several times. We were always well prepared before airtime, but somehow we could never stick to our agenda. What fun. WHP was really a meaningful asset to Harrisburg back then. The staff, particularly Ron Drake, held our hand through the Agnes crisis, and there was a lot of coverage (for which read "promotion") of the arts back then. Melissa still doing Bargello needlework when she can find supplies . . . "No Parking" signs went up in the 200 block of Briggs Street this afternoon. If you are parked there, better go take a look . . . Not into politics on this blog, but there are several Harrisburg sites that have been burning up the net with an investigation of the mayoral candidates, particularly the Loveship non-profit of Linda Thompson. Eric's blog (link on the left) will lead you to some of the commentary . . .
