The Republicans swept yet another election day in Delaware County. The judges and council members were pretty much run away races. I have learned over the last 15 years of living in Delco that it is by far a Republican area. The Democrats have won very few elections in the time I have lived here. (except for Joe Sestak). The thing is that the longer they stay in control of Delaware County the worse it seems to get. Philadelphia is spreading to the west and the territory is getting worse every day.

I like to plan vacations with my family. We love to travel to Ocean City, MD at least once a summer. The vacation is always anticipated as we plan it over the winter months by touring vacation rentals and choosing the accommodations from the different real estate companies. The first trip we made was the most fun we’ve had on a vacation. We planned a lot of our activities before we arrived because we did our research and found a lot of places that we wanted to visit. They have a nice boardwalk and an amusement/water park that is a great way to spend a day. There is miniature golf on just about every corner and plenty of restaurants to choose from. We are never bored and find ourselves planning things for our next vacation that we did not get a chance to do on our present one. The beaches are absolutely beautiful and very well kept. We can’t wait to return next summer.

The Philadelphia police buried one of their own yesterday. The funeral was attended by thousands and was a real tribute to a fine man. Officer Cassidy devoted his entire life to serving the city of Philadelphia and the city paid their respects to him the best way they knew how. The ceremony was very touching and made me proud to be from this area. The offiicers killer is now on his way back to the city and has already confessed to the shooting. I want the officers family to know that he will never be forgotten and is truly admired for all he did in his life. We will miss you Officer Cassidy. Rest in peace.
