LUNA PARK: Bradford Township resident Rocco Camus called about Luna Park, which was formerly in Bradford.

He doesn’t remember the park himself, but he recalls hearing about it from adults, such as a neighbor of his, when he was growing up.

He said Luna Park had a big recreation area and was near Hilton Street on the Tunungwant Creek.

We don’t know that there’s many readers left who will remember the park, but we were hoping someone has information about it or maybe even an old picture they would pass along to us. Does anyone know why it was called Luna Park?

NOT OVER YET: Well, we know it feels like autumn now that it’s Labor Day weekend and school’s back in session, but technically there’s still three weeks of summer left.

Here’s suggestions for ways to enjoy the last bits of warm weather in Bradford. They’re the type of things we found plenty of time for as kids, and we know many of you will be celebrating a long weekend:

•Go on a picnic. And we don’t mean a meticulously organized family or neighbor get-together with a grill and lawn chair and coolers and more people than you can expect to have a conversation with in one afternoon. We mean, grab a blanket, a basket with a couple sandwiches in it and a buddy or two and park yourselves under a tree. You know, a picnic.

    •Our sister still makes a point when she visits home to look underneath rocks in the yard to see what is living underneath. We know it’s kind of gross and maybe a little juvenile, but there are very interesting things residing just under our feet. Besides, if the creepy critters are starting to get bigger, it might be good to know. Just in case.

•Climb a tree. It might just give you a bit of a higher perspective.

•Make a pitcher of lemonade or margaritas or another summer drink, set up on your porch with some buddies and just visit. Bring a deck of cards. Don’t look at the clock. When it gets dark, light some candles and stay out to enjoy the night air.

•Blow bubbles. Even if you don’t have kids, this is the kind of thing that can harken you back to your childhood. 

We’ll leave you with this:
