Does anyone live in York County, PA?

My mom volunteered for many, many years at the Stewartstown library when it was right on Main Street. My first job was in Coover’s Pharmacy right near the big supermarket next to the bank and across from the funeral home.

Only thing I remember about Stewartstown was playing golf on the nearby Pleasant Valley golf course. If you chose the right day, you could play 45 holes . . . for the price of 18.

I still love to shop at Saubel’s supermarket in Shrewsbury. They have the best meats. And Barton’s orchard outside of Stewartstown is not to be missed for peaches and apples.

Ah, Betsy, you reminded me of some other things:

In SoCenPA, yard/garage sales are almost always on Fridays and Saturdays, not Saturdays and Sundays like down here in MD.

Another thing you’ll find there and not in MD: roadside chicken barbecues, mostly put on by churches. Ohhhh, but those are good.

And for meats, my uncle who used to live in Parkton would trapse across the Mason-Dixon to buy Kunzler meats for our July 4 cookouts. Those were also quite tasty.

The Northern Central Rail Trail / York County Heritage Trail is now complete from downtown York to Hunt Valley. It makes for a nice bike ride, and there are several volksmarches available on it.
