  1. Its good to continually warn folks because they do not think about it. No matter how many times it is stressed, someone still lights a fire, and it ends up getting away from them.
  2. I love going out to the end of the bridge where there are glass plates you can step on and look through. The view all around is gorgeous! Especially when the leaves are changing. There is also a gift shop and a visitor center where the history of the bridge is laid out for you. Sometimes there is a food truck in the parking lot. There are also trails underneath you can hike on. Great place for all ages and lots of parking!
  3. Kinzua Bridge in Mount Jewett is a historice place. Excellent place to visit.
  4. Must be. I don't remember that light ever being out so long. Not gonna go that way until that is fixed! Went up there today and it was a bit tricky. Such a busy intersection.
  5. I'm so sorry for your loss. When my father died, someone set up a credit card account in his name and tried to change his address. It was someone in Florida. Thieves who read obits and try to steal identity do it every day. It was very disheartening to have to go through that while grieving. That's why it is so important to notify social security and all other agencies ASAP as well as closing accounts, so that you don't lose anything. It's also a good idea not to publish the birthdate or address in the obit. Sad to say, that can be obtained on the dark web, though. But we don't want to make it easy for them. My heart goes out to you. May God help you in these hard days.
  6. I don't agree with her at all. The thing is, if an adult insists they need a sex change, I don't agree with it, but I'm not going to stand in their way. However, children are too young to make this decision. They think they are this and that, or want this and that, and don't look down the road long range. The brain doesn't stop developing until the age of 25, so I have read. So what does that tell you? People and circumstances change over the years. When I was a kid, I hated my name. My parents didn't let me change it. I'm glad they didn't. I love it now. Same with kids in a lot of instances. They may feel one way about something as a youth, especially due to outiside influences, or due to "what the fad is" at the time. Years later, they may very well see it a different way.
  7. Sorry you went through all that, but good to hear about the great response time. I was in town years back, when my teenage child was at home. My kiddo mistakenly called 911 by hitting the emergency button then called me horrified to tell me that as I was on my way home. When I got there, there was a police car in my driveway. I told them what happened, but they insisted they needed to see my child to make sure all was well. So I had them come in the house. It was a quick response time then as well. Good to know they would be there if I really needed them.
  8. This is just my 2 cents, but its hard to access the situation when it is in a state of ongoing construction. My thought would be to wait until the whole thing is done and everything is tied together, then form your opinion. This work was not started lightly, and I'm sure it was a long process in the works before ground was ever broken. I'm sure a lot of thought and planning went into this. I'm sure the folks planning it feel that the end result will be spectacular. We should all just wait until its done, then we can all decide for ourselves.
  9. I personally don't drink bottled water unless I am in a situation where there is no choice. It's hard on your system, due to the microscopic pieces of plastic in it from the manufacturing process. Some folks don't have a choice and I realize that. This was told to me by someone who goes to a diet doctor and has to drink a lot of water. A family member also saw some info that supports this.
  10. I'm not a fan, but I pray he recovers and feels better soon. Depression is a horrible thing for anyone to deal with. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
  11. As I said before, he should never have run for office, and should have taken time to recover. As far as his wife taking over, can she really do so? I hope not. She didn't run for office and was not voted for.

    I like what Governor DeSantis stands for, but I'm sorry to say you can have Florida! It's nice to visit, but too hot and humid for me. I like the change of season and weather. I still feel safer here in PA out in the hill country. Too many hurricanes, fires, and flooding in the southern states.

    Be still my heart!
  14. I'm gonna say wow, just wow. I'd like to say some other things. But the Lord is holding my tongue.
  15. Its a shame at all that we even should be having this legislation. Aborting children so late in the pregnancy where they are actually born alive is something that shouldn't even be happening.
  16. Was very sad to see. After watching the new Elvis movie, it lends understanding into these folks' lives. Looks like a fairy tale on the outside, but a lot of pain and suffering inside. Also addiction. I wouldn't want fame or fortune at all. It seems to be a curse for most folks. I hope she is now at peace and with her daddy and the Lord.
  17. I was certainly not making fun. I just feel that Fetterman needs more time to recover. I'm sorry that you were mistreated because of your condition. That is awful and plain wrong.
  18. I wasn't impressed with him either. Yes, they should have had someone better.
  19. It's really sad. The poor guy has trouble gathering his thoughts. I don't think he should be in office right now, but recovering. I think the Dems just wanted to put anyone in there rather than lose to a Republican.
  20. The thing about schools accommodating this type of "furry" thing is simply ridiculous. The kids are human beings and that is it. They are there to get an education and that is it. End of story. And parents who let their kids do this sort of thing are messed up and really need to straighten up and straighten their kids up. Back years ago, we didn't have this crap going on. People actually worked for a living and didn't sit around with too much time on their hands on social media getting the wrong ideas. They were out busting butt to support themselves and taught their kids the same! If my kids would have tried this "furry" thing, they would have been set straight real quick. That's the last we would have heard about it!
  21. I'm Republican, but really peed off right now because they can't seem to get their act together!
  22. Not sure what to think on the Paxlovid. Had covid, got paxlovid on the 3rd day, took it and symptoms went away, but came back when paxlovid course was done. Symptoms were mild and hung around a few more days, then I was ok, although I tested positive until about the 14th day.
  23. She is one special little lady! I love the last pic where she is giving Santa her undivided attention and also the one before it with that huge smile where she is holding the Abominable Snowman! Thanks for sharing! We all need a little sunshine!
  24. I'll go with the 3rd statement. I think it has definitely helped and works sometimes. For instance, we didn't have as many colds and flu in 2020 because we masked. I don't think it works all the time. Depends on the type of mask, and how the wearer has it positioned. People have a right to choose. If I feel a concern, I put one on. If I don't, I don't. I still stand by my thoughts on the doctor offices and hospitals. They are in the health business, so if they require it, I feel I should comply.
