The river was crystal clear the other day.

Now if only something could be done about that stuff on top.

About to take a great fall?

Bricks replaced presumably by UGI, with a nice mortar job - 
Everything matches perfectly.

This building (the former Subway) at 149 North 3rd is going to be gutted, renovated and turned into a convenience store, according to borough documents.

Some folks need a reminder.

This looks like something Jethro Bodine threw together.

It was on this truck. Hopefully, their oxygen tanks are better designed.

It was keeping on eye on these pigeons, who were hanging together.

This one was a casualty.

Gotta move that exercycle somehow.

******************

Governor Wolf ordered that flags fly at half-staff on Saturday, October 22, in honor of a soldier killed in the Korean War and only recently identified.

Who complied?

Borough Hall
Nope!

Columbia Crossing
Nope!

Columbia Post Office
Nope!

The DAC
Nope!

These were just a few of the buildings around town that were checked.
It's ironic and shameful that the flags weren't lowered to honor a veteran when Columbia claims to honor its veterans.

CVS - Seems to be the opposite of what it's trying to convey.

Keep religion out of politics and off women's bodies.
