After over a month's delay, PennDOT has finally come back to finishing and resurfacing our road and once again they have done a job that they should be proud of...Not!
One day, if we get lucky here in the state of Pennsylvania, the state will hire someone with the qualifications to oversee the quality of work done by the PennDOT road crews and pay the said crews accordingly. PennDOT crews should be paid for the quality of their work, not the quantity.

I initially got a phone call from an Aunt who asked if I'd heard about the appearance of the Virgin Mary in the window of the Old Miner's Hospital Nursing building after the fire on 8Aug07. I went down and took this picture but I've been hesitant about posting it because I wasn't sure of the reaction. I'm posting it now because I've received more phone and email inquiries about it. You be the judge.
