Summer Memories

Posted by tom | Jul 19, 2007

Just today my parents passed along the below clipping from a few years back ;-)  Interestingly enough, I was still using a handpowered mower at times until a few years ago, when our family upgraded to an electric/battery-charged mower (although I had plenty of time on a riding mower as I was growing up).

Tom mowing the grass of his Grandmother Grosh's house in Marietta, the summer before first grade.

This summer back home has been filled with memories including living next door to Karen and the boys as they visit from Israel/Palestine, dress-up and games for the kids at the Groshes, and lawn games with the Bryants and the Starrs last night at Elizabethtown BIC to name a few.  And I can't wait for Christmas in July with the Ginders at their cabin in Montoursville.

But speaking at a Mount Joy Twp supervisor's meeting advocating recycling and sharing concern regard speeding trucks along Cloverleaf Rd. did land me in the paper again . . . covered in B4 of today's Intelligencer Journal (Thursday, July 19, 2007).  I didn't find it on-line, here's a scanned copy.  Pray for action to be taken.

Anyone have summer memories they'd like to share?
