You're quite welcome. Let me know what areas you'd like to see photographed next. I have links to roughly 75% of my tours posted on an announcement at the top of the Northeastern Pennsylvania sub-forum (click on the blue "Photo Tours" link there to see the list), and the others I haven't been able to merge into that list because I don't feel like nagging a moderator to do such minor "housekeeping" type of work.

I haven't had many (if any) specific requests for when I continue my tours in Spring 2008, but I have had just the general "I wanna see tours!!!" types of comments. LOL! Definitely on my to-do list is a return trip to Williamsport to capture the parts of the city I missed. I'd also like to do Hazleton. Be sure to check out the photos posted by Mathjak, Summering, Greentown, DeLorean, and a few others as well, as it's easier to get a "feel" for an area through photographs as opposed to just reading about them.

Let me know what you'd like to see next. Happy New Year!

For the ultimate experience, you need to stay at La Petit Au Berge, a bed and breakfast right on the square in Wellsboro.

SWB,
A belated thank you for the wonderful pics! Wellsboro looks much as I remember it tho it's been about 10 years since my last visit. Great Blueberry pie at the Wellsboro Diner!

Thanks for the pictures. I was directed to your post by my Dad who received it from one of his friends. He's not able to download major items on his system so forwarded it. We are Wellsboro natives although I can only claim 10 months of living there because my folks relocated to SC. My maternal Grandpa worked at the County Courthouse pictured in your thread. I have so many fond remembrances of my birthplace and often long for the quiet times there. You just missed the turn to Gram's house but the trip up West Avenue appears the same today as it did all those years ago!

Scranton...great photos. It's always interesting for me to see visitors' take on the things I see everyday. The chunk between towanda and the troy area is my daily commute (right down to being stuck behind a cement/milk/log truck on 6) and you practically got my roof in one of the pics. wellsboro is my fav town in the region, but I look forward to your photo tour of troy. Awesome old houses and unique history. check out the farm museum while you are there for more perspective on the region. The best time to visit troy would be in late april for the maple festival or the last week of july for the troy fair. you may also be interested in canton, which is just 10 miles south of troy (good food at doc's irish inn - food options in troy are weak at the moment). the other endless mountains area that I think would match your interests is Laporte-Eagles Mere, and Forksville. However, those are strictly summer visits. lol.

Love the pictures of Wellsboro I lived there from 1956 to 1967 and graduated from Wellboro Charleston High I have many fond memories from my time there and still have friends there from my high school days. As I looked at the pictures the memories came flooding back and after 40 years and living in several states I still feel like Wellsboro is my home town.

Thank You for the memories.

I plan to head back soon to do another photo tour of both Troy and Wyalusing; two small country hamlets that had very impressive downtown architecture. I would have stopped to do them yesterday as well, but my memory card on my digital camera was filling up.

Great pics of a great little town. Have you seen the covered bridge in Luthers Mills, between Troy & Towanda? It's about a mile off Rt. 6, but well worth the trouble.

Hi , I just got this from a relative that lives in Wellsboro, I was born there in 48 but have lived here in Florida most of my life , I have not been back in 30 yrs , thanks for the memories ,I recognize quite a few places in pictures of Wellsboro , most of my family lived in the rural areas on route 6 ,Catlin Hollow & Tioga. It is making me want to move back . My sisters ,myself & our mother plan to make a trip back soon to visit , I agree it is a wonderful town and beautiful country , it is even more beautiful in the fall when the trees turn color, the mountians and the Pa. Grand Canyon are wonderful too , they make great pictures .
Good job ! Wish I was there right now.
