Whenever I'm in town I make a point of stopping at the Kada Gallery. Growing up in Erie I never…read morerealized that there were art galleries. Those were fantastical places that only existed in larger cities like New York or L.A., and we're manned by pretentious hipsters in unrelieved black. This place is nothing like that. Although in a fairly high end local commercial area, the place almost has the feeling of walking into a home. While the main room is what you might expect to see when thinking of an "art gallery" the rest of the place is an eclectic plethora. The oxymoron "ordered chaos" comes to mind. Many of the walls are hung salon style, and nearly every surface is covered in some type of art. They have a wide array of pieces. Most of it seems to be in the traditional style but there are some modern and a few funky surrealist pieces. One of my favorite artists featured there is a woman by the name of Mindy Duncan. If visiting you must check out her work or Brad Lethaby's figurative pieces. The place is quite a bit larger inside than it appears from the street, going much deeper into the building. Aside from the art museum I believe it is the largest place to view original artwork in the city of Erie. Although sizable, it has such a personal feel to it. When you walk in you are almost always greeted by the owner, who is more than happy to help you select framing or tell you about every artist and painting within the place, should you choose to ask. Most of the framing work is done by her husband in the gallery's lower level. All and all it truly is a wonderful place that is worth a look if you have a passion for art. It's in a merchant center where every one of the businesses are locally owned, and as such many of the shops around it are unique as well. My only criticism is that it can get a little warm in there during certain months of the year, but it's still a great place to unwind and spend a lazy summer afternoon.

I was visiting Erie with the intent of taking a couple of leisurely bike rides around Presque Isle…read more On our first ride, my bicycle seat developed an annoying rattle/squeak. It's not bad enough that it was annoying, but I have sensory issues on top of it. This had been a recurring problem that other bike shops attempted to fix. I thought they had done so, but only temporarily it would seem. I called the owner of AR Adams on upper Peach Street around dinner time that evening; he invited me to come in so he could take a look at it. He spent the next hour and a half doggedly investigating every mechanical aspect of the seat. Nothing seemed to help, so I said I would buy a new one since I just couldn't take that squeak! He installed the new seat, and then took the bike for another spin around the parking lot. When he got back, he told me he thought he could still hear something! I took the new seat for a ride myself and yes; the squeak was still there although not as loud. At that time, we decided to try to replace the post that the seat attaches to. After he did that, my bicycle was transformed into a quiet machine! He refused to sell me the new seat, since that wasn't the problem. I was so grateful for his patience and fortitude in helping me solve my problem and not gauging me on price. Thanks so much!!!
