TBW Daily Diary

Entertained a very charming couple from St. Louis this morning who found us on that TripAdvisor site. They were visiting Central Pennsylvania with a dual purpose—to see the Gettysburg Battlefield and to visit the Hershey chocolate factory. Both missions accomplished . . . Those of you who use the convenience store at North Second and Maclay for an emergency loaf of bread, quart of milk or gallon of gas should be advised the place is now empty and closed. The building will be torn down and replaced by a bigger facility . . . I tried to walk a measured mile this morning, and if I succeeded I can say that it takes me 2030 steps to complete it . . . We received JJ's soccer schedule for the fall season; I hope he likes it better than he did two years ago when he hated the whole experience. 'Twill be interesting to see how this pans out. Either way you are sure to be treated to a picture of him in his uniform . . . Bob sometimes thinks that his investment in a computer was a mistake since he doesn't receive as many e-mails at home as he anticipated. Most still contact him at the store. So if you have a moment this weekend, please send him a "hello." His is the bottom e-mail contact on the left. Thanks . . .
