[Highland Park] cabin rentals at Seven Springs
by marlene bloom 24 Aug '12

24 Aug '12

Hi everyone! I have been going up to the wine festival for years now at Seven Springs. I end up staying at a hotel many miles away every year it seems. I really like it up there and would like to see if anyone might know of a cabin that I could rent for a weekend every now and then for this festival or at other times. I want something reasonable in price because I can not pay the high prices that I have seen some available. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!!

[Highland Park] Window tinting answers
by Constanza Ehrenhaus 24 Aug '12

24 Aug '12

Hi, Thank you very much for the list of window tinting services. There was a question if it is legal. As long as the tinting is less than 70% PA laws allow for tinting. If the cops have stopped you because of this, you do have the law on your side, so be aware that you should not pay a ticket for tinting your windows! Places suggested: Double take Auto. http://www.doubletakeauto.com/ Team Nutz in Fox Chapel marina Ziebart in Wexford Adam Szumetz at 412-607-6519 he comes to your home. I am asking for quotes now, thanks a lot!!! -- Healthier, greener, and cheaper life: Sensibly Green<http://sensiblygreen.wordpress.com/>.
