Thats right. Beaver County. The beav. BC. 724. Our slice of Western, PA.

My friend Bill made this logo up, great stuff. Hes proud to live around here too.

Ill drink to that!

Ive been here all my life. Except for a little time down south. Those poor bastards dont know what they're missing!

I understand though. I used to hate it but I realized a few years ago just how good we have it here.

Its like this...

Its the end of Winter and you think you cant take one more day of the cold and the brown and white nothingness...

BOOM, Spring is in the air. The days get longer, the flowers blossom, the trees turn green. Time for renewal and rejeuvination. Bike rides in Bradys Run Park resume and the Maple Syrup Festival! Along with this yearly rebirth comes rain, mud and pollen and when you just cant take any more indecisive weather and spring allergies...

POW! heres Summer. In the Summer you can bask in the sunshine all day because the weather is always good (although sometimes partly cloudy) and theres dancing at summer music festivals. You can ride your bike (pedal or motor) anytime you please... all day, everyday! And theres delicious Mojitos that hit the spot on long hot summer nights. Then just when the heat, humidity and long balmy days seem like they go on forever...

WHAM! just like that, its September 1st. Fall weather is upon us. It seems like in just 1 day, it cools down and its time to get your jackets out (oooh, i love finding a forgotten $5 bill in a coat pocket!) and comfy warm flannel PJ's. Theres beautiful landscapes full of colorful leaves and the crisp mornings where you can see your breath for the first time in ages and Halloween then Thanksgiving with bonfires and family get togethers. Dont forget wine festivals and fresh apple cider! Then when your not even ready...

POOF! the first snowfall. The ground is covered with white and the trees are heavy and full of crystals...its just so damn pretty. The solitude of a fresh snowfall... its so peaceful, sometimes you can hear your heartbeat out where I live. Theres sled riding, you can make snow angels and winter mountain bike rides with little nips of smooth Canadian whiskey at stops.

I actually like driving in the snow. Its challenging.

Then when your oh so sick of slushy and salty roads, unbelieveable cold and being sick... the cycle starts over again!

No matter what season your enjoying (or geting sick of) you know a new one will be just around the corner. Theres always a new ride, a seasonal beer to enjoy and a fresh outlook on the weather you thought you couldnt stand!

Just think... You get all this in Beaver County.

724. Tougher than God.
