Mother's Day is upon us!

Have you thought about your ideal treat for the MOM in your life? Try some of the following activities.:

Mother's Day Brunches & Lunches at area restaurants

Brunch or Tea aboard the Skipjack Martha Lewis

The Mother's Day Cruise aboard the Lantern Queen is sold out... BUT..

     you could reserve a spot on the Chocolate Cruise, May 16th

A Tea Party for Mother's Day at the HdG Maritime Museum

.... or maybe something really unusual like a

Weekend at the Susquehanna Music & Arts Festival!

... or a Trip down Memory Lane w/the Nifty Fifties!(see photo below)

And remember, time spent with MOM is probably most appreciated if you're an older child. While you enjoy a meal or entertainment, don't forget to take the time to tell her how much you love and appreciate her.

These 3 goslings belong to a pair of geese that actually had 10 little ones running around in my yard. Now THERE'S a lady who needs a special treat on Mother's Day!  <smile>
