Welcome to the website of an old-fashioned print publication.
We started publishing this magazine way back in 1981, and we continue to find topics of interest to our readers, including history, people, places and events that make living here such a wonderful experience.
We also have photo contests, an annual scavenger hunt, location contest in each issue, a calendar of events, and spectacular photography.
We come out with a new edition every two months and mail them to our subscribers and place them at newsstands throughout the state. When you subscribe, you ensure that you’ll receive a copy of each edition.
There’s so much to see and do and know about our Keystone State. We thank those who have already joined us in our endeavor and invite those who haven’t yet to come along for the ride.
It’s always a Beautiful Day in PA!
