Anyone have any insight into the local farms and which may be officially or unofficially blue dot? So many of, for example, at the Co-op Farmers Market sell the same things and I would like to patronize producers that share my values. https://bluedotfarms.com

We are working on a Jessup / NEPA themed model train layout and have a spot to add an airplane flying over it. Is there a plane you specifically associate with this area? I'm having a hard time thinking of one. Maybe the giant C5 from the airshows? The old MD80s we used to get here? What do you associate with the airport or this area? Thanks!

Hello,

I am moving back to Scranton since I managed to find work in this area (been living in Harrisburg/ Hershey since 2023) and I play Saxophoneb(been playing since 2011) and I was wondering if there are groups I can get in contact with to be able to play with them as a hobby/ pastime to do around the area.

I go to jetz 3 car wash in Carbondale as it’s right by where I work but I was wondering if anyone knows of a better self service car wash throughout all of the Scranton/Wilkes Barre area as they are always out of soap and chemicals in the bays and I’ve had some change eaten occasionally. Any help greatly appreciated

EDIT: Happy ending for all, i was able to get in contact with the owners and they have been returned safely home. Thanks all for the help and concern!

~~Hello, yesterday around 1pm while I was walking around Lake Scranton I saw two dogs in the middle of the lake swim-chasing geese. When I got to the shore, they started swimming toward me and, after some trust building, I got them to approach me enough to check their collars. One is a female golden retriever and the other is a male black retriever mix with some white around the muzzle and on his chest. Neither had tags. A kind jogger ran off and lent me two leashes so I could get them back to my place and off the lake property. I took them to Plains Vet hospital in Wilkesbarre and they aren't chipped.~\~

~~I contacted SPD and only got advice to call Animal control Monday, take them to Griffin pond, or make facebook posts. I've had family/friends make posts as I don't have accounts, and am waiting to hear back from Griffin pond if anyone has reported them lost. No inquiries yet.~\~

~~These are both very affectionate dogs and I would hate to see a family lose them. If anyone has any information on anyone who lost dogs matching these descriptions, please DM me. They're being well cared for in the meantime.~\~

For the electronic music fans are there any local venues or events?
