Looking for Pocono t-shirts? Easter Events!

Pocono Gear
If you’re ever in the need of Pocono gear – shirts, hats, etc. there is a site called pagood.com that offers a variety of both Pocono and PA items.  I was contacted by the site owner a few weeks ago so I figured I’d drop a line…you never know what people are looking for!  If you have an interesting Pocono site, product, etc. let me know and I’ll be sure to post something about it!

We greatly appreciate comments on posts as we love getting feedback – just an FYI though they are thrown into moderation so we manually approve them first to avoid spam messages being posted.  Most of the spam is innocent enough but I’d rather not risk more risque comments being posted so I hope you guys can understand the delay on approval.
