Carport to Garage Conversion - Contractor Recs Requested
by L.Fusco, Owner 01 Nov '19

01 Nov '19

Howdy, neighbors! We have a failing carport behind the house and would like to convert it to an expanded, enclosed garage. We've had numerous contractors poop out and never even send a quote! We've already done the zoning legwork!! Please, we are desperate. Send info on reputable contractors who will show up to assess the project, provide a quote, and do the work. There's also a fencing component of the project so we can enclose the yard, so if you have any great contractors in the space, we'd love to hear about them. -- L.Fusco, Owner she/her/hers Elevate Resume Services fusco(a)elevateresume.com 717.968.4862

Found Shoe
by Frank Czuri 31 Oct '19

31 Oct '19

We found an opened box with one gray woman's shoe in it from Barnes. Obviously the package was stolen and opened and was left on our sidewalk at 6534. The mailing label is incomplete as it was torn when opened but I can make out it was addresses to a DelGuzzi on Jackson Street. Any help getting this to the rightful owner is appreciated.

Article regarding Pa Constitutional Amendment on Election Day
by Dora Magovern 31 Oct '19

31 Oct '19

Hi all, Below please find an article explaining Marsy’s Law/the pa amendment that will be on the ballot on November 5. I had no idea this would be on the ballot. The article does a nice job of explaining the possible long term and widespread impact of this bill. Please know that I work with kids who have experienced abuse and trauma so I am aware of and fully support some of these changes. This article also addresses how this law could be interpreted to place more legal barriers in pre-trial discovery for the accused. Victim’s rights are important and so are those of the accused. https://www.wesa.fm/post/marsys-law-explained Kind regards, -- Dora P.

Thanksgiving potluck
by Sherry Goldman 31 Oct '19

31 Oct '19

Hi, neighbors, We would like to reach out to those of you who may have nowhere to go this Thanksgiving. Perhaps you have no family here or cannot get home this year. I like to include anyone who has nowhere else to go as Marty and I have been there many times. We are hosting a Thanksgiving potluck on Thursday November 28, 2019 at 6:00 pm. The potluck will have a mixture of interesting non-traditional as well as traditional Thanksgiving food. So we'd like to coordinate what everyone is bringing so that all bases are covered. We’ll make a turkey breast. Our philosophy about Thanksgiving: It's a time to be thankful for all of your blessings, including all of the people in your life. We'll eat as soon as everyone arrives (after taking a few minutes to share what we are thankful for) and then perhaps we'll play some games after dinner with those who wish to stay. If you are interested, please RSVP (yes or maybe) so we will know how many to expect. If you are unsure, please RSVP maybe and tell us your final decision later. Thanks! We are looking forward to sharing this time with some new people. Sherry (and Marty) 412-215-9631

I have 3 metal bicycle tire irons to give away. Have’t used them in 25 years so it’s safe to say I don’t need them anymore. They are in great shape.
