\"\"<\/a>Here’s the history of the recently opened historical museum in southern York County’s Glen Rock, according to borough historian John Huffnagel: ‘During the Sesquicentennial, Harold Fritz brought a plow made in Glen Rock in the 1880s into Sesquicentennial Headquarters for display. After the celebration was over, Fritz said he “would donate the plow if we had a room to display it.” ‘ That lit the fire to officially organize a museum committee.’ So the 150th anniversary<\/a> of the borough in 2010 spawned the idea that formed the Glen Rock Historic Preservation Society’s museum.

Neat stuff from all over …<\/p>\n

Those old York Safe & Lock\/AMF\/Harley-Davidson<\/a> buildings in Springettsbury Township?<\/p>\n

Many of no more, as that site is being prepared for development:<\/p>\n

This update, courtesy of the York Daily Record\/Sunday News:<\/p>\n

“All that’s left of the largest building that once stood on Harley-Davidson’s<\/a> West Campus is a concrete pad, said spokesman Michael DiMauro.<\/p>\n

“By the end of January, all demolition will be complete on the company’s site, and the western portion will be handed over to the York County Industrial Development Authority, he said.<\/p>\n

“The authority purchased the land from Harley for $500,000 after the company announced it would consolidate operations.<\/p>\n

“Most of the buildings on the West Campus will be knocked down, except for the former tour center, which houses usable office space.”<\/p>\n

And concerning tour centers, a special, paid tour is being offered at the Harley-Davidson<\/a> plant on the East Campus of that large site.<\/p>\n

Images of JoePa:<\/strong> The photograph of Joe Paterno that made up the front page of the York Daily Record\/Sunday News in covering his death is available for sale.<\/a> A poster of a JoePa<\/a> as a young and veteran coach is also available. And images of JoePa<\/a> that YDR photographer Jason Plotkin collected over the years are also available.<\/p>\n

\u00a0York on TV:<\/strong> The Haines Shoe House<\/a> is featured on MTV’s ‘Extreme Cribs<\/a>,’ a show specializing in, well, showy shelters. Viewers familiar with the outside of the the Shoe House but who have never seen its interior will learn something.<\/p>\n

Blog post of the day:<\/strong> The stone wall that provided the Confederates with such good cover at Marye’s Heights<\/a> in Fredericksburg, Va., is profiled in Scott Mingus’ recent Cannonball post.<\/p>\n

Forum of the day:<\/strong> Well, the weather is fine, but people still have snow photos from the recent fall. Only York’s Joan Concilio<\/a> is collecting some over at her blog.<\/p>\n
