JD Malone, who reports on the Nazareth area for the Express-Times, apparently had a great day at work today according to the blog post he made on the Penn Live blog (read it here).
JD spent the day enjoying the sidewalk sales in the Borough and rating each establishments' hot dogs.
To his credit, JD has virtually immersed himself in Nazareth since taking on the assignment and has provided significant coverage of the community in the Express-Times. He works out of the Us office on Main Street and I personally enjoy stopping in to tease him for having to sit through another School Board meeting on the third Monday of the month when the Nazareth Downtown Association is meeting next door at the Nazareth News Agency.
His report on the sidewalk sales and activity in the Borough today may be light by journalistic standards, but it was much needed. It spoke of people enjoying a day walking, meeting shop owners, seeing one another, and getting some good deals on retail items as well as food.
In a reasonably brief post he highlighted many businesses and presented a fun day in town.
I'm looking forward to the weekend, as I'm sure many others are, and while JD's may have started early, I hope he takes all the festivities in and continues to blog on them from the Block Party to the Craft Show to the entertainment and the Road Rally concluding with the fireworks. It is a wonderful, long weekend and one that always seems to arrive at just the right time.
JD I'll be looking for you tomorrow night and looking forward to your next post.
