Stauffer's Mansion was built in 1870 by John Frederick Sener, grandfather to Elizabeth Ludgate who in July 1975 willed her 16-acre estate to be deemed a public community park. Her will also asked for the formation of a 3-member trust that would help control financing and development of the park. This led to what all of us know now to be Stauffer park complete with a softball field, tennis and basketball courts, formal gardens, a children's play area, and parking for visitors when the Mansion became home to the Recreation and Parks department in January of 1976. The Mansion itself features high vaulted ceilings, large rooms perfect for meetings, an oak paneled den(now used as an office) and beautiful stained glass windows. After the board moved into the property, alterations took place ... 11/03/2008

Phillies Won! I had to IM my son in Denver, Co, and of course he was watching.  I'm sure he's off to celebrate now!  After that rain delay the other day, we were pretty disappointed.  But it didn't hold us down!   Less than 50 words ~ I don't care ~ just had to shout it out! Phillies Won! 10/29/2008

Charter Homes is still busily working on developing the Gammache property in Manheim Township along Route 23.  According to the Lancaster Newspaper article, Charter has changed their plans at least 3 times since 2003, and has just applied for two rezoning petitions for portions of the 45-acre property at the recent Manheim Township comissioner's meeting.   It will be interesting to see what they come up with next.  Could it be another "Independence"?  It will be interesting to see if Manheim Township has the same reaction as Hempfield did with Charter Homes TND plans for "Independence". The 45-acre tract was bequeathed to Lancaster Catholic High School, and has held the attention of the township for several years now.  Looking back, Charter Home's original plan of 125 condos, semi detac... 10/28/2008

Food that soothes.... I love Greek food.  Granted, I am a Greek girl and was raised on this delicious gastronomic cuisine of my forefathers (and foremothers to give  credit where credit is due).  I remember as a young girl thinking that the lasagne at my italian girlfriend's house tastes okay, but it didn't beat the creamy bechamel sauce and cinammony meat mixture of my mother's Pastichio.  Now that was flavor! In June '07, while in Greece with my husband and younger son for three weeks   (before my 'accidental tourist' trip back for another several weeks in August were I lived like a true native)   we had our fill of the delicious local cuisine.  We made it a point to eat where the locals eat, and to pass on the touristy places.  We ate at the "tavernas" where you order lamb chops by t... 10/27/2008

What does our quaint county of Lancaster Pennsylvania have in common with such cities as Austin, Oklahoma City, Honolulu, Portland, Ore, Tulsa, Virginia Beach, Seattle, Baltimore and Boston? We've been rated one of the Top 10 Places to Ride out the Recession according to a recent Forbes Magazine report!  According to the follow up story in the Lancaster Newspaper: "Sure, the local housing market didn't soar as high as it did in some places during the boom a couple years ago.But that means the economy here won't plunge as low as it will in some places when the recession hits, if it hasn't hit already, says a leading business publication.A sturdy housing market is one reason Forbes magazine believes Lancaster County is the 10th best place "to ride out the recession.""Lancaster shows that ... 10/20/2008
