Mt. Pleasant Glass and Ethnic Festival

First of all, I apologize for the delay in posting about my day at the festival on Sunday, but I have been home recuperating from a crazy thing that happened to me a few days ago.

As many of you know, I got poison ivy on my ankles last week when my kids and I were playing kickball.

Well, the poison ivy on my ankle got infected, made my ankle swell up and caused me a lot of unbearable pain, so Sunday morning I went to the ER and got a shot to kick start some antibiotic and some other medicine.

The doctor told me that I was lucky that I came in when I did or it may have been worse than what it was and she couldn't believe that I was able to walk in the parade with my ankle like that, but I told her that the people wanted to see me walking in the parade and that's what they got.

Well, my ankle is feeling better now, but I limped around the festival on Sunday and checked out all the booths and all the food and the Poverty Neck Hillbillies concert and the very awesome fireworks.

My kids and I wore our custom Steelers jerseys with the #13 and Earnesty on them and everyone loved them. We attracted a crowd and the people seemed amazed that I would hang out in the crowd and talk to the people just like I was one of them.

Apparently, my opponent never left the Westmoreland Democrats booth during the entire festival, but it was a festival, so I was out enjoying it with my fellow citizens.

That's one thing about me, I am just like everyone else and I have never acted like I was any better than the people.

That's what we need a State Representative that isn't afraid to hang out and shake hands with the people that they represent and with your vote, I will be that Representative.

We have a debate scheduled for tomorrow with the Herald-Standard, it will be taped and shown on HSTV19. If you do not get HSTV (it's the Uniontown area cable company), please try to find someone that has it and enjoy the show.

Until Next Time...Have A Great Day!!!
