A Blog about the Chambersburg area of Trenton NJ. The Burg we all loved and miss. If you were from the Burg I hope many of the pictures and lists and comments under them from good folks bring back some nice memories. Villa Park, Franklin Park, South Trenton, and nearby Hamilton also mentioned. Use the search box atop the blog to find schools,churches,streets,stores,bars etc that you remember. Over 4000 posts and 3000 pics. Enjoy:)

Looking at the awnings reminds me of the heat of the city before air conditioning.
Trying to cool the stucco of the hours, I remember going out with a hose after the sun went down enough and just hoping. It felt better doing something. That is just what I said to my wife since I went out and hosed down the AC unit along side the house. It's in the 90's.

Hi Skip.
In the days before air conditioning
a summer storm was the most welcome
thing as it often cooled us off for a short period and made the air cleaner:)
Yes, Mack .. now you made me remember .. "I smell a storm coming".
The .. wonder part of my wonder year was cool stuff. Like sitting snug under the porch awning and watching it pour and right across the street, Nelson's and MacStravick's lawn was bone dry. The storm split the middle of the street.
