Pre-ordered this beauty 6 months ago...well worth it.

Not as bad as I thought it would be. Rockport, being in between glen onoko and white haven and the furthest out, tends to be less crowded. I like Rockport because you get two, very easily accessible waterfalls and a nice, long cascading fall into the river from the parking area. Not as scenic from a mountains perspective as glen onoko but scenic from a water perspective. No where near the zoo that is hickory run.

Nice hike though Lehigh Gorge - Rockport today

On Sunday I'd say it was 50/50. On Monday 65 / 35 maybe? On Sunday a fight broke out in the pool. The police were called.

Only matter of time before they break ground...especially with the new management at the helm.

Hit up the P town pool the last 2 days and I've never seen it busier. Sunday was nuts. I couldn't even get my diving board flip on. I miss last year when it was members only.

Not to bump the covid thread as I'm so happy that it's been quiet but I thought it was worth mentioning that numbers are continuing to drop. PA report 162 today.

Always.

Most of the time a year max. The phone I have now is my second this year because they released the newer version after 6 months (instead of a year) and having the older version wasn't sitting well with me.

Yep. You're getting 95% of the experience with a midrange device while saving 800 bucks or so plus 30 to 40 monthly. I used to be the person that needed the latest and greatest but the mid range has gotten so good recently.

LG officially pulled out of the cell phone game about a month ago. LG does extremely well but the mobile phone division was losing money like crazy.

This is how most of the world does it. They buy a phone (unlocked) then toss a sim card in for whichever carrier they're using. Here the majority are still financing their phones through a carrier. This is why we have a Samsung / Apple duopoly and this is also why phone makers get away with charging $1200 for a flagship device in 2021. Most people aren't paying $1200 up front. They're paying that while tied to a 2 to 3 year contract with a carrier. Personally I like the freedom to choose the carrier that I want (including MVNOs) and switching phones when I want. I have a buddy who absolutely hates Verizon but can't leave because he's locked into the contract for the next 2 years. He'd have to drop a few grand to pay off his family's devices to get out of it now...or wait the full term. That sucks imo

Hiked a portion of Ricketts Glen today. From Onondaga to Ozone falls (my son really liked it).

Nice early morning hike.

Worlds end canyon Vista

I've pretty much stopped wearing a mask. Since Friday I've been to multiple restaurants, stores, hotels etc. Feels good to be almost back to normal. My younger kids aren't vaccinated so they're wearing them still.

Not home internet related but realized that MVNOs, as opposed to major carriers like ATT and Verizon for wireless are a no brainer if you buy unlocked phones. I'm rolling with an MVNO on the ATT network, 4 phones, mobile Hotspot, wifi calling, more data than we need for less than a hundy. I'll never purchase, lease, finance an ridiculously overpriced phone with a network again (its not a car). Buying unlocked gives you so many more options.

That's groovy saltman. Cool stuff.

and these geniuses are going to manage Blue.... "The database shows that one lift at Camelback failed a routine inspection in November 2020 and another lift failed inspections in October and December 2019. Because the database identifies lifts by number and not the name used by the resort, it is unclear whether either lift that failed inspections is the one involved in the fall."

Technically yes. Since he is the GOAT. A turncoat GOAT but the GOAT none the less.

Skyrush is a GOAT Coaster

That only works at ski areas that actually get snow. Although they could pull a whitetail and leave everything ungroomed on Mondays

Looks similar to the color I'm doing. I pulled off the old posts, bought new and staining before attaching.
