He’s like an outwardly sad version of Robin Williams

I never knew about the feathers. Dam I collect single feathers that I find on my property I guess I should chuck them

No and I already called the cops you are so fucked

I grandfather was actually friends with Landon rickett.

Im being nice. A lot of people. A lot of health practitioners. Science minded individuals that I met when getting a health science degree. Not magic the gathering pot smokers that think they have a clue. It’s easier to be fooled than to be convinced you’ve been fooled. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

No, you can't receive tax funds and only accept christians. Our country our rules. If you don't like it live in Afghanistan where religion is more intertwined with government.

Yes. Exception is if there are 2 names in title and one of them cannot be present. In that case, his signature can be notarized ahead of time. But the other person in the title will have to be present with the buyer during the transfer. That was my experience - for Pennsylvania anyway.

Some things to consider:

1. Moon phase. March 25th is a waxing crescent, which should be great, but if you change dates and end up going during a full moon, then there's going to be a big spotlight in the sky all night long. So if you want to see stuff like the Milky Way, look up a moon phase chart and time your trip appropriately. New moons are ideal. IIRC waxing half moon rises late so it's good for evening viewing while waning half moon sets early so it's good for early morning viewing.
2. Dress warm. Even in the summer. It's cold at night, especially when you're sitting still all night. Layers and blankets are your fiends.
3. There's two viewing areas, separated by a road. There's a parking lot on one side of the road with a viewing field and some seats that are protected from the lights of the lot and the street by a berm. That area is open to any visitors. The other side of the street is only for people camping overnight in the park, and it's the side that has bathrooms and shelters to block the light.
4. The people coming for stargazing I've found to be very friendly and welcoming, but I found the locals to be less so. Surrounding areas have giant signs saying, "This is GOD'S Country" and the like. I have been incoherently yelled at in the past just for looking like I'm from the city. Also the surrounding counties - Potter and Tioga, etc, are known for being one of the state's centers of white supremacist activities. So just be warned and be careful.
5. While I've found the cell reception at the park itself to be pretty good, the surrounding area is a giant cell phone dead zone. You'll be struggling to find a single bar. So bring maps, as in the paper variety. Plan for a low-tech weekend in general. And don't whip out your phone at the park at night without a red filter screen protector or something. Red lights only in the park.
6. Have a backup plan in case of bad weather.

Four legs good, two legs bad.

Great choice, especially with some trails on the outskirts of South Williamsport/DuBoistown area. Not too far from most of the best mountain parts of PA. Plus State College is only an hour away for the nicer amenities.

3 different times I bought a car but wasn't able to go at the same time to transfer the title. The other person went to the tag place, did their end, and gave my name as the buyer. When I was available I went and signed my end, paid, and registered the car.

Last time I did that was maybe 10 years ago. In one case it was nearly a month. The car was sitting waiting for me to fix it so I wasn't in a rush.

You'd have to ask your local notaries if they're okay with that. A few around me will do it no problem.

Anything that can be deemed a trophy is a problem, ribs, leg bones, etc no issues.

I'm in the Poconos and stayed at the Hampton in Mansfield, Tioga County and drove over there stopping in Wellsboro on the way.

Not a bad drive considering the distance.

The closest hotels are in Coudersport up rt 44. Millstream or Westgate. There are no chain hotels up there. I'm not sure if Sweden Valley will be open or not. I want to say there was a B&B up there...Frosty Hollow or something like that, it's pretty close along Rt44.

The end of March will still be cold up there so bring your "winter" gear.

Yes. Both buyer and seller need to be present at the notary.

The best place for this to take place is a local Auto Tags And Title Service.

Indiana, PA is super nice!

I say none. I live in Bradford County, PA in the Endless Mountains. Meth labs are common. When we bought our fishing licenses we were given a paper entitled "How to recognize a meth lab"

The limiting factor is cloud cover. If the sky is clear it is Beautiful. If the clouds block the sky you are shit out of luck...

It’s a troll bot

Absolutely worth that drive!! —from someone who also lives in the generally outside Philly area. We camped at Lyman run state park and had to make the reservations pretty far in advance in order to get a weekend close to a new moon. It’s a short drive from cherry springs so we just drove over in the evening when we were ready to stargaze. We’ve considered going back and have looked at some airbnbs, so know there are some in the area too!

Cherry Springs State park is definitely worth the 5 hour drive. I’m south of Pittsburgh (it’s about the same distance) and I’ve taken that trip a few times over the last few years.

It’s a dark park - no white light permitted in certain areas. So TAKE RED LIGHT FLASH LIGHTS !!!

When driving late at night you’ll need to park your car in a lot and walk a short distance into the Star gazing field. Red light Flash Lights !!!

You probably already know that that park is the darkest area along the eastern seaboard. There’s zero light pollution- so you’ll see more stars EVERYWHERE. if you know a few constellations, look for them ; you’ll see double the stars when at that park.

There really aren’t meteor showers during March - but it’s still worth the trip. Hotels aren’t close- but midnight drive in that area can be pleasant / just be careful of deer and snowy road conditions. You’ll literally be in the middle of the largest forest in Pennsylvania- so make sure you’re prepared and your car is in excellent condition.

Sorry - I didn’t really speak to the hotel concern. Because I’ve always camped using a tent. It’s amazing to just roll out of a sleeping bag at 2 am and lean out of your tent and see the most amazing sky. You’ll forget that you’re In Pennsylvania

One guy on YouTube says he’s going to buy a house in Honesdale Wayne County.

Oh sorry must have missed that lol.

I'm talking about op whining about the PA wine and spirits site crashing anytime there's a drop. This isn't just a state site issue, this literally happens to every retailer. Nobody has infrastructure capacity to handle it.
