I think Indian Caverns is closed now but you used to be able to visit it and Lincoln Caverns on the same trip since they are not far from each other.

What a sweet way to die! Too soon?

I finally finished reading Acceptance. It didn't really answer any questions and only raised new ones. I don't think it really contributed much to the overall story.

Due to global warming the Atlantic Ocean now reaches Harrisburg.

GitHub has codespaces for machine learning.

The appropriate response to this article should be, how do I set up my own cyber school? Joking aside, I do a lot of online tutorials and I have a few certificates for completing courses. It would be nice if some of this counted for college credit.

Great! This means I can go on that killing spree I've been planning. Just joking!

Trains are an interesting example of early technology and investment hype. I did not realize this until I read a history of financial bubbles. People used to be really excited about trains so they built way more rail lines than could be justified. There was some serious over-investment. It was comparable to Silicon Valley mania today.

I have never rented an apartment. But I think $400 is average in Williamsport. I only pay $108 a month on my mortgage.

At least they are saving a lot of money since they don't need to buy gas.

I drove it last fall, but I just went from Lock Haven to Renovo and back. I also went to Hyner View State Park on that trip.

Yes, north Lycoming County is very mountainous and the highway cuts through the mountains. Route 120 from Lock Haven to Renovo is known as the Bucktail Scenic Byway and winds along the mountains.

The Ledges Hotel in Hawley has a balcony overlooking a waterfall. It is fairly expensive though. I just checked and it seems like you get a low rate in winter.

I go there at least twice a year. Once in summer and once in the fall for the foliage. It can be very crowded during the peak of fall foliage. There will often be some mist in the gorge in the mornings.

The only restaurant I've eaten at in Sullivan County is The Sweet Shop in Eagles Mere. I should try Crestmont Inn some time.

I am aware that most people are crazy. People are so irrational now that a leading intellectual had to write a book defending rationality. He was vilified for that.

Skynet is going to keep us safe!

My brother lives out in the mountains and loses power every now and then. For Christmas, I bought him a Jackery Explorer Power Station. These portable batteries won't power a refrigerator or a furnace, but they will allow you to charge your devices and power a laptop and cable modem for several hours.

It does look a little spooky.

You are being pedantic. ;) But I approved your comment. Not sure why it was flagged.

Only an hour's drive for me.

I've been there a few times on bus trips. Oddly enough, they never offered bus trips to New Hope.

Faith and begorrah! That's grand!

I never hike in winter. You have to wear orange to avoid being shot by hunters. The forests of bare trees is just depressing.

If you are in the State College area, you might want to visit Bellefonte which has some interesting Victorian architecture (unless you visited that city as a child). State College has changed a lot over the years. It now has many more apartment blocks and condos. I think there is still some major construction projects going on. The Arboretum would be new to you, but it might be closed for the winter. This year I drove out to the Bellefonte area often, but mostly to go shopping at the Barnes & Noble book store which is near the Nittany Mall. The Nittany Mall is pretty dead now.

Bus them to Williamsport so I can practice my Spanish. Jamás aprenderemos español si no lo practicamos.
