Wilkes-Barre, PA
Wilkes-Barre was founded in 1769 and formally incorporated in 1806. The city grew rapidly after the discovery of nearby coal reserves and the arrival of hundreds of thousands of immigrants. The city reached the height of its prosperity in the first half of the 20th century when its population reached just over 86,000. Following World War II, the city's economy declined and the Knox Mine disaster accelerated this trend when large portions of the area's coal mines were flooded. Today the city has a population of 41,498, making it the 13th largest city in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza Rally @ 7pm
No Todays Trivia as I can barely keep up with this man posting where the rallies are with a few photos. So, like in times past, lets spend the day in prayer and meditation for Trump and his family, our precious country and the people that are the forum. Has anyone heard from our dear friend WVKayaker? Hes down under and was down under. Lets also give thanks to Jim Robinson for having the insite years ago to start this wonderful site. More than ever, its been a welcome retreat for many of us these past difficult 8 years.
If you haven't become a monthly donor do so, even for $5 per month.
You were hoping for video of Man Versus Food, weren't you?
My Grandson loves to go there for the ice cream and for all of the bands and animals that make noise. :-)
The garden store is wonderful and where get our Christmas trees.
I forgot about the ice cream cones! The animated animals and little bands are great. When you first go in the main door there are so many tempting items during the various holidays!

In the fall, they have GREAT ( locally made) apple cider donut holes. :-)
The front of the store is "DANGEROUS", what with the ice cream, pies, cakes, cookies, popcorn, etc.! :-)
I always tend to buy more than I had planned, when wed go there.
LOL
All this talk led me to looking up air fares to maybe go see my folks this summer! lol
I think the squared off buns are easier to eat. I tend to throw away a lot of a round bun. That is me.
And a lobster roll is just NOT a "real" lobster roll unless it's on a square bun. :-)
Sorry, but “DEEP DISH PIZZA” is a CHICAGO made up thing; it isn’t REAL pizza. There is NOTHING like that in all of Italy!
And yes, I’ve eaten it, but no, I don’t like it much. SORRY.
Wanna brag about something “CHICAGO”? The Science & Industry Museum is FANTASTIC, early architecture is/was glorious, the parks are beautiful, The Mag Mile is MUCH better ( with the exception of losing I.Magnin and Bonwits )than it was in the early ‘70s, and the various yacht clubs, right in the city, are better than the ones in NYC. :-)
Well, thank you for all the nice things you said about Chicago...I was kidding, tho lots people from elsewhere do love the pizza!! Oh, I had no idea the poppy seed hotdog buns were so regional & special. I love them :), but don’t eat them that often—summer thing. Eh hotdogs are a very regional thing. As you know, putting ketchup on a hotdog in Chicago is taboo LOL.
Yes, we have some nice museums, parks are glorious~in spring and summer especially, and I love the architecture...Love the architectural boat tours...learn something new every time.
Daughter had a friend who said the only thing he would do on the Mag mile is run it LOL...Obviously, he does not know the City. Ah, I haven’t thought of Bonwit Teller for years. Memory lane...Best & Co, Bonwits, and sadly, Fields :(
In New England, we have square hot dog rolls ( the ONLY kind that one should use for a lobster roll !), but we also have the rounded ones, here in Ct. too. From N.Y. down, they only have the rounded ones.
The youth know there is a huge void explaining why Marxism doesnt work. He can fill that void in a big way.
Wow the cameras are accidentally showing the crowd.
That corner was known as the children's triangle, brcause mothers and grandmothers used to go from DePina's to Bests to Saks 5tth to buy their kiddos' clothes; Bloomindale's was for children's shoes and "the help"'s uniforms ONLY, when I was a bitty kiddo in NYC.
Bonwits was also a NYC store and it broke my heart when that shop folded too. I bought ALL of my furs at Bonwits, in Chicago, when we lived there. They also has spectacular hat and purse departments.
I. Magnins is California store and Lakin et Cie was on the first floor. They had MAGNIFICENT jewelry ( also great Estate sale jewelry! )and they did wonderful special orders too. I also bought many a hat there and their designer section was really nice!
Yes, Field's going out of business is just awful! :-(
Oh the memories I have re that store too!
Ketchup on a hot dogs, in NYC is blasphemous and a "sin" against the hot dog! LOL
Yes, not only do I miss sidewalks and taxis and my ability to look at Lake Michigan from most of my apartment's windows, but I miss, TERRIBLY, poppyseed hot dog buns and Vienna Polish sausages. :-)
We did live there for 17 years, so I do appreciate a lot about Chicago ( just NOT the *cough* "pizza" ) and do miss what it was like, when I was there and when the kiddos still lived there.
Yes, square ( they really are rectangular ) hot dog buns, slathered with butter and then put on a griddle, filled with lobster salad. It’s a standard summer dish in New England and Maine is known for them. They’re DELICIOUS! :-)
Hey, missed the Wilkes Barre rally so was trying to catch up and saw your posts.
Just wanted to tell you I’m glad you’re on the mend!
I’m guessing we’re close to the same age and I know I don’t get over stuff as quick as I used to. Heck I never used to get sick. Had a years worth of sick leave coming when I retired.
Anyway, take it easy and mind Marlene! ;0)
You guys are talking about pizza and buns during Passover, unfair. Lol.
I had a deep dish pizza that was amazing when I went to Chicago. I believe that pizza is served in heaven. It was soooooo good. One day I want to make it.
I am sorry I missed all the rallies today. I’m sure Trump was amazing. Loved hearing on the radio his discussing Kasich’s sloppy eating.
Hope tomorrow is a wonderful day.
Is that a photoshop? It looks like Ted Cruz kind of.
