For one week a year, Williamsport, PA enters the national spotlight through ESPN’s cameras and the Facebook posts of a thousand moms chaperoning their internationally-acclaimed wonder kids around the Little League World Series.  This was not that week.  For the rest of the year, my hometown is a small, sleepy country bumpkin, oblivious to its own hay-sweet beauty.

We spent most of Memorial Day weekend in Williamsport enjoying time with family, cousin sleepovers, creekside dining with a blues band, mellow evenings that sprawled impossibly long in summer laze, ice cream cones, grilled steak salads, farmers markets, and fields of nonchalant daisies.

I hope your Memorial Day held the same blessings of freedom to you!
