Looking to get out of town with the family this weekend. Has anyone been to the PA Grand Canyon? If so, is it worth the trip?

Anyone unhappy with their web design? I can redesign it for free

0 Upvotes

If your current web design feels dated, unfinished, or just doesn’t fit the business anymore, I’d be happy to take a look.

Share a link, tell me a little about the business, and let me know what bothers you most about the current design. If you’re starting something new, you can tell me what you have in mind instead.

I’ll start with a few and put together a free web design mockup for each one. I’m especially interested in hearing from small businesses doing something positive for their customers, employees, or community.

PA inspection shop at Luzerne County says I need a whole new windshield for this tiny passenger-side chip - is that actually required?

22 Upvotes

Hey everyone, looking for some advice about a PA safety inspection.

I recently registered my 2020 Hyundai Accent in Luzerne County after buying it from a friend in out of state. I took it to a local inspection shop.

The car passed emissions, but they wouldn't give me the safety inspection sticker because of a small rock chip in the windshield. The chip is pretty tiny (around 1 inch or less) and is on the passenger side, not in the driver's line of sight. I'll attach pictures.

The shop told me the windshield needs to be replaced and quoted me $260 installed. They gave me 90 days to get it taken care of.

What I'm confused about is why the entire windshield needs to be replaced instead of having the chip professionally repaired with resin. From what I've been reading, small chips like this can often be repaired, especially when they're not in the driver's viewing area.

I'm planning to take it to an auto-glass shop for a second opinion. If they say the chip is repairable and professionally repair it, should that normally be enough to pass PA safety inspection?

Also, can a PA inspection station still require me to replace the entire windshield even after a professional repair? If anyone here is a PA inspection mechanic or has dealt with something similar, I'd really appreciate your input.

I'm not trying to give the shop a hard time. I just don't want to replace an entire windshield if a proper $50–100 repair would legally and safely solve the problem.

I know most of the people on here are my age or younger, but I was wondering if anyone had old pictures of what the park used to look like. Particularly the slide. I remember going to that park so often as a kid, but I only have like two pictures

I moved away from the area years ago and visit family once in a while. Went on a Thursday evening. Food court closed. Most stores seemed to be long gone. Eerily quiet. Was here 4-5 years ago and it seemed to somewhat be making a comeback. As a kid in the 90’s, it was always so busy.

Anyone else feeling robbed of pool season in NEPA this summer?

Seems like this summer in particular we only had like maybe 10ish decent days to enjoy what would be considered good pool weather . Long-range weather models basically agree that summer for the most part (temps in the 80s) is gone ..

Took my adult kids camping in Equinunk last weekend, and was able to capture all this in 2 nights.

The white blobs in 2 of the photos are a Falcon 9 rocket that launched from California.
We saw the first one that launched from Florida, but my camera wasn’t near me.

Second to last photo has the Northern Lights and the Milky Way over the Delaware.

5k and 1.5 mile fun walk to help raise money for archbalds legal fund against inasivr data center developers. Please share with other groups who may be interested, thank you! 💛🌻🏃

Next meeting: Wildcat Ridge 9/9/26 at Valley View High School, 5pm! This is the NINTH hearing for this project alone, they seem to be trying to exhaust our funds. There are several other applications with ongoing hearings as well. We potentially have a new 7th data center application coming soon too.

Mom from NEPA looking for a friend! 💛
Looking to meet another mom who’s up for chatting about parenthood, life, the highs and lows—and lots of laughing along the way. Bonus points if you’re into working out too! 🏋️‍♀️

Would love to find someone to grab coffee with, go for a walk/workout, or just talk about life and mom things. Making new friends as an adult can be hard, so I figured I’d put it out there! 😊

Best way for a married couple to meet people our age around Wilkes Barre?

30 Upvotes

Hey all,

My wife(34F) and I(29M) recently relocated to the area from South Carolina and are struggling to find ways/ opportunities to meet people our age. We've been to a couple of events in the area and checked out the trails at ricketts, as well as the tubbs, but making friends is proving to be kinda difficult.

She's from the area originally and definitely loves being back here. While I do think it's beautiful up here -- I'm finding it much harder to have a sense of place up here, and I think finding some kind of community up here would help that a ton.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Not a NEPA resident, but I’ve spent a lot of time visiting since the 70’s up till now. Usually solo motorcycle trips.
Took my adult children camping on the Delaware this weekend to show them how beautiful it is.

Left my camera in the river overnight Friday to get this video.

Saturday night I was able to photograph a space x rocket, the Milky Way and the northern lights. I don’t think I’ll ever have a better weekend as a photographer or a dad.

I’ll make another post to show the photos.
Hope you all enjoy this
