I love going to Barnes & Noble. It’s a great feeling to walk up and down the aisles of books, pick up a few that look appealing, settle into a chair, and read for a while. The only problem is that I can’t stay there all day and after I get really interested in a [...]

Last week, Tina and I were out on the streets on New Hope. Bucks Living Magazine is doing a feature on New Hope, and they asked BucksHappening.com to do a Jay Leno-style video piece to complement their article (we will be posting the video soon). After a morning of running around and interviewing people, we [...]

What better way is there to spend a Sunday afternoon than learning about & tasting a variety of local wines? This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of attending Crossing Vineyard’s Wine Tasting for Dummies class. For $30, the owner of Crossing Vineyard spent two hours sharing his best wine tips & stories, his self-proclaimed goal being to “de-snobarize” wine tasting. I [...]

Coffee is my friend; it brings a smile to my face on the worst of mornings & warms me up on chilly nights. When my boyfriend wants to do something nice for me (or more likely work his way out of the dog house), he makes me a good cup of Joe to cheer me up.
This morning was my first [...]

You may have visited Against the Grain, the medieval gallery in New Hope, which has been a staple shop in town for many years. It’s one of those interesting, unique stores that makes New Hope so much fun. If you enjoyed their collection, you will definitely be excited about this weekend, 4/17 – 4/18, when New Hope will [...]

The time to enjoy river sports in Bucks County is almost here! I can’t help but get excited when I see the first few boaters & jet skiers of the season braving the cold river waters. We at Bucks Happening will certainly be exploring water sports over the next few months, but we wanted to take a few minutes [...]

Walking around scenic Bucks County, I often notice the many artists- whether painters capturing the scenic canal in Washington Crossing or photographers strolling around New Hope with their fancy-shmancy cameras (you can’t deny they look really cool). Whether you are an experienced artist or just want to try a new hobby, there are tons of opportunities for you to [...]
