Welcome!

‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾

We’ve created a site that we hope will be helpful and easy to navigate, or at least as easy as any Web site is to navigate. If you’re never seen Pennsylvania Magazine, send for a sample issue today.

What you’ll find here (links open in a new window):

• Links to sites that are associated with articles in the magazine, so you don’t have to fuss with entering Web site addresses from information boxes in the magazine. For example, the November/December 2008 links for ROUNDUP are HERE.

• Listings and links to contributors’ Web sites and blogs. You’ll find that HERE.

• Article samples and current issue articles when possible. For example, here’s Cindy Ross’s article on spending 24 hours with the Allentown Central Fire Station (LINK).

• Cover images of current and past issues with the table of contents for that issue so that you can search and find where we covered a topic that you would like to find. You’ll find November/December 2008 issue’s contents/cover image HERE.

• Use the SEARCH at the top of the page to look for things that interest you.
  

WHAT YOU’LL BE ABLE TO FIND ON THIS SITE in the NEAR future (links open in a new window):

We’d like to have posts from readers and contributors about the best restaurants, places to stay, things to do, and other highlights. We’ll invite contributors to add more information about article topics that we weren’t able to fit into the limited space of the magazine. If you’d like to send something (tip, idea, etc.), send an email to editor@pa-mag.com and we’ll set you up with a USERNAME and PASSWORD to access the site.
