Going to Gettysburg?

The following is a brief editorial by ALO director Roger L. Misso.

I had the great pleasure of visiting one of my friends over the weekend in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. If you haven't been to Gettysburg lately--GO!! Its beauty and scenery transcend its solemn history, and certainly beats sitting around in today's cities or modern suburbia.

And, if you're in Gettysburg, go visit The Lion Potter, located at 855 Taneytown Road. A husband and wife (and indeed, family) potter team hand crafts thousands of absolutely beautiful (and useful) pieces. During the summer and fall months, The Lion Potter sells some of the best produce in all of Pennsylvania--from a myriad variety of tomatoes to knock-your-socks-off peaches.

And, to top it all off, both David and Junko Young (the team) are some of the most amazing individuals you will meet. Both well-versed and well-traveled, a stop at The Lion Potter will expose you to more than just pottery--their business and demeanor represent all that is good with not only America, but our shared world.

So if you're in Gettysburg and you're hungry, or in need of some of the best pottery you will ever find, or you just want to meet some outstanding people, visit The Lion Potter at 855 Taneytown Road! You'll be glad that you did!
