Vehicle Accident, Class 1
Cruisin' in Columbia
Mother Nature gave us perfect weather for the 8th annual Cruisin’ car show on Saturday. Entrants were still registering as of late morning, bringing the total to 455, as compared to 413 last year. Organizer Barry Doutrich led the way in presenting awards and honoring local veterans.
Proceeds will benefit the Columbia Food Bank, The Columbia Borough Police Department K-9 Unit, and Hospice of Lancaster.

What’s wrong with these pictures?
Nothing really, if you consider these folks are
“wading” and not “swimming.”

What I Saw – Friday, June 8, 2012
At River Park . . .
Someone’s going to be missing these.
(They were still there as of 6 p.m. today.)
Why use one space when you can take three?
After all, no one else is using them.
Maybe the driver didn’t see this sign.
Or this one.
Nothing like going out through the “in” lane.
Vehicle(s) into Building at THE
This morning, I received this photo, which has apparently been making the cellphone rounds. It shows the aftermath of a vehicle (or vehicles) that crashed into the store adjoining the Turkey Hill Experience today.
(Photographer unknown at this point)
Fanfare for the Common Man
This is one of several patriotic fanfares written during World War II.
I remember reading an interview with Aaron Copland in which he noted that other composers were writing fanfares to honor generals and admirals, but he wrote this for the ordinary soldiers, since they were the ones doing the actual fighting.
What I Saw – Saturday, June 2, 2012 – Sign, Sign, Everywhere a Sign
On Saturday, I took a walk around town, armed only with a smartphone and a cheap point & shoot.
(To see larger pics . . . well, you know what to do.)

Uh . . . ?
Punctuation please!
And while you’re at it, correct the spelling.
