Very nice, Bob. I like the unusual form, that has to be an early one. ~Jim

That's terrific. I really like the name "MAUCH CHUNK". Any history on the name?
Mauch Chunk was derived from the term "bear mountain" in the language of the native Lenape people, an apparent reference to a local mountain that resembled a sleeping bear.

Didn't MAUCH CHUNK become JIM THORPE, PA?
