yea well if we get down there there are alot of places Id like to check out nubeer one is John Kehoes hibernian house, talk about history, even though it has miller light neon signs and blue vynal siding on it, thats cool b/c kehoes reletives (who STILL operate it) diddnt turn it into a yuppie-esque tourist trap. Compile a list and we can check them out ona future middle field tour.

The Hibernian House is a cool bar.....especially during the St. Patty's Day parade......

We locals refer to it as Wayne's.........
(Kehoe's great grandson, Joe Wayne owns it)

The Wooden Keg Tavern (built 1866) in St. Clair is another bar that was hangout of the Molly Maguires. The bar is upstairs but in the basement they have the tunnel room.....

Yea Friday is good for me Northern Field sound good? Lets pick a central spot we can start at, say at like 7pm that way we can meet there, get some food, and have enough time to hit some other places. I live in Wilkes Barre, anyone from the my area can ride up w/me in my truck if you want since I dont drink. Send me an email at cudaman76@yahoo.com. Im not sure where you guys are I assume up in Scranton, or Mid Valley, so what ever is most convenient for the majority as a central location is cool, then we can decide where to go from there, Sound good?

Good times, no not in one night, but over the course of different trips, then we can do a middle and southern field tour if it all works out. See you all there.
