I had to hike Pennsylvania’s toughest trail in 2.5 days. All 43 miles tested me. The Black Forest Trail is 43 miles. I had 2.5 days.

Thought I was just hiking Pennsylvania’s hardest trail for @inquirer.com but I was also meditating on the end of my marriage, dating, and how I heal and punish myself. Fun! #divorce #marriage #dating www.inquirer.com/life/outdoor...

Yes, bears can invade your Pennsylvania campsite. Ask me how I know. To stay safe from bears, there are several common-sense guidelines. I did not follow them.

I did not follow #bear protocols on my trip to Ricketts Glen State Park. We paid the price. Click on link to read my @inquirer.com story abouty family’s night of chaos.

Any major dude with a half a heart surely will tell you my friend

Meet the Squonk, Pennsylvania’s depressed, pig-like creature “It’s gone from ‘what’s a Squonk’ to ‘Hey, that’s a Squonk’ to ‘see you at Squonkapalooza.’”

The Squonk is so ugly that it cries itself into a puddle of tears. It's a cryptid for our times, and it's Pennsylvania's very own. Go cheer him up this weekend in Johnstown. My @inquirer.com story

A rural Pa. general store gets a boost as the state helps reopen its only gas pump, following Inquirer report “I was inspired by Kim’s story,” Gov. Shapiro told the crowd outside the store. “She chose to bet on Pennsylvania.”

@governor.pa.gov reads the story, feels inspired by the owner's plight, and vows to help.
