Another awesome time out at BriggsFarm in Nescopeck, PA. The Highland Games is another one of those days I plan my schedule around; you can’t miss it…it’s just way too much fun. Aside from the extremely juicy fields and huge ponds of mud we were again gifted with killer weather which does tend to make it a bit more fun for everyone watching the Games.
Get out and enjoy life!
On our way to dinner last night we stopped by the bridge in town to see the Susquehanna River swollen beyond its banks. Most of Berwick sits way up from the river, but across the bridge in Nescopeck it’s a much different story. In 2006 something very similar happened here, but this seems quite a bit more intense. The bridge closing is a big deal…it never happens. Like 5 years ago, throngs of people came out to see the river at near record levels. And seeing the river flowing through Nescopeck making it impossible to get from ‘here’ to ‘there’ without going way out of your way was wild.
Just crazy, that’s about all you can say. Life’s adventures happen all around you…some are big…some are small…noticing them is the part the matters.
Rock on
I found a few shots from the 2006 event…added them at the end of these.
Finally had a chance to make it to a friends charity Dodgeball event this year. Wow, what a crazy time that was. I was blown away by the amount of people, the number of teams and the intensity of the play. It was awesome to watch! Thinking about putting a team together for next year. Win or loose it looks like fun!
Game on!

Posting a quick note about 2 upcoming items. We’re having a movie showing in the studio next Tuesday evening, May 24th, at 6pm. Raeesa Khan’s “Pakistan’s Cave” reviews the country’s need for education reform as told from the first hand accounts of her father and his brother. There will be a Q&A session with Raeesa and her father directly following the showing. Hope you can make it.
And, I’ll be posting the second article in the ‘Movers & Shakers’ (formerly Artist Articles) series at some point tomorrow. Please check back and give that a read if you get a chance. Thanks again…and have a great one!
Rock on…
Just posting a quick note so it’s seen here on the front page. I’m starting a new series of posts called Artist Articles (I might change the name, but that’s it for now)(These are now called Movers & Shakers), that explore some of the people that I find awesome. Inspirational individuals with stories that need to be told. Check out Chris Bishop, the first in an ongoing series of profiles meant to make life more colorful! Thanks for reading…
