my river a finalist as the PA River of the Year

Well, no.  Yet again I can't refer to a river as my one and very own.  But I have loved the Schuylkill River for a long time now.  I have written about her, both in a book called Flow and in a recent Inquirer story.  So when I saw Joe Syrnick, Schuylkill Banks CEO, on the news just now at the gym, I had to smile.  He was talking about her.

The Schuylkill, Joe was saying, is a finalist in the 2013 Pennsylvania River of the Year contest. 

You can vote to turn her into a winner.  I hope you do.
