Stories from local residents and those afar that still keeps their roots close to their heart, about what they love about Queens County and special days out in Queens County, they want to share with everyone.

Welcome to another new feature of Queens County Community

I love to hear stories about what people find interesting to do in Queens County. People live here because they love Queens County. There is so much going on and it is, what you make of it. Once I started to publish events on the Queens County Community Calendar, I saw Queens County as I had never seen it before. Once I started publishing pictures in the Out & about album, I wanted to see more. I have always loved geography and love to know where I am in relation to everything around me. I would love to get out and about more often, as I am sure that most of you would as well. We all have busy lives though and commitments, but we fit in what we can. This page is dedicated to sharing all those experiences with everyone. If you are out and about in Queens and you want to share, let us know about it. If you have a camera or a video cam, what a great way to share your experiences with everyone else. If we cannot be there, reading about it is the next best thing and maybe it will end up on your to do list. So please share your experiences, a walk on the beach, a drive in the country, visiting your favorite spot, having lunch with friends, a special find in Queens, a potluck supper, a sporting event. Let's let everyone know what we love about Queens.

If you would like to add your experience, email queenscommunitycalendar@gmail.com

Pamela & Phoebe's Day Out

I took my camera along today on our visit at Queens Manor. This is my dog, my girl, Phoebe, and she and I have been a St. Johns Ambulance Therapy Dog team for three years. We used to visit at Queens Hospital, then a few month ago switched to the Manor.  
Every Saturday morning, I tell Phoebe, "Let's go to work." She can't wait to get to the car! She loves visiting with the wonderful people at the Manor, residents and staff alike. Every person there welcomes us with smiles, and lots of 
affection. The photo top left, the one of Phoebe and I, is in Thelma Scobey's room. Thelma crochets beautifully and we have a lot to talk about as she grew up in the house I live in. I want to say that Liverpool should be very proud of the Manor, of the people who work there and make it a real home rather than just a nursing home.
All best, 
Pamela Ditchoff and Phoebe
