pottstown events: So Long September...
- 09/30/11 01:02 AM
I am so happy to say bon voyage to the month of September. It has brought more rain, mosquitoes, wet basements and leaky roofs than I can tell you!

It's too bad we couldn't work out some sort of "survivor pipeline" to help each other out. Bring on October- with some nice crisp, Fall temperatures and LESS rain!
