Still deciding what to do on Thanksgiving? Don't want to cook? Some of our area restaurants here in the Poconos offer a Thanksgiving feast, which allows to you sit, relax and not worry about cooking & clean-up! Shawnee Inn, for example, not only is hosting Thanksgiving, but are also offering 2 and 3 night stay packages over the holiday, including hayrides, campfires and tickets to see An O. Henry Christmas at Shawnee Playhouse! They are serving the Thanksgiving meal from 12pm - 4pm, with a delicious buffet menu. For more information, you can visit them at shawneeinn.com.
Drive down Main Street in Stroudsburg this time of year when it's dark, and you get the beautiful sight of all the trees wrapped with white lights. And don't you know, soon enough, the wreaths will be hung on the street lamps and the tree in Courthouse Square will be lit, too! Yes, even though we're having some mild weather, it may not quite feel like the holdiays yet, but they sure are here! Thanksgiving is right around the corner - just a week from tomorrow! Take a ride to Stroudsburg and enjoy the views and excitement of the holidays in the Poconos!!
Good news for those who were on the fence about buying your first home! The first time homebuyer's credit was extended into spring of 2010! It has a few small changes, but it is still an $8000 credit. The credit is extended until April 30, 2010, and as long as you have it under contract by that date, you have until July 1, 2010 to close. Also, the income limits increased, so if you are single, the limit increased to $125,000 and if married, the limit increased to $225,000.

Everyday at 12:30 pm, Barley Creek in Tannersville offers free tours of their working brewery for all ages, and tasting for those 21 and over. It's a great experience in the Pocono Mountains original brew pub. Hang out and enjoy lunch from their menu, like the Firehouse Chili (which is perfect this time of year) British Pub Style Shepherd's Pie, or some Slow Cooked Pot Roast! And if you wait just a little longer, you can hit Camelback Mountain for some skiing or snowboarding!
The Pocono Family YMCA, located on Main Street in Stroudsburg, has opened a new Pilates and Spin Studio! It offers classes to members and non-members and is right across the street from their parking lot on Williams St.
Pilates is a great work out for people of all levels. Seeing and feeling results in your body keeps you coming back for more. There are four pilates reformer machines for classes or one-on-one training. Spin class uses stationary bikes and burns a lot of calories in a short amount of time, giving you an intense workout.
For a class schedule and information, call the YMCA at 570-421-2525.
