TBW Daily Diary

Eric and Joanne back from Florida where they celebrated their first wedding anniversary . . . The day began briskly and Mark Stevens was here to help. Biz tailed off in the early afternoon and Bob and I fell to remembering all the popular restaurants that Harrisburg was host to back in the '60s and '70s. Do you old folks remember Lombardo's on Seventh Street, Santanna's at Second and Washington, The Maverick on what was then known as the by-pass (is it still called that?), The Hill Cafe at the east end of the Mulberry Street Bridge, and of course Harry's somewhere on Allison Hill which I only visited once but which Bob frequented often. To be honest, we couldn't always come up with the name of these establishments, so we thank our friend Lee Spitalny for refreshing our memories . . .
