Parts of the ice house foundation can still be seen, though the growth around the area is thicker every year. The dam was rebuilt in 2008, and is now a quiet, safe place for everyone. Because it is a part of the Game Commission, orange vests are encouraged during hunting season. My mother's favorite story to tell is of parking the car, opening the door for her black lab, being told that black bear was is season, putting the dog back in the car, and skipping the walk for that day. We visit Brady's lake a few times a month as a family. We bring the dog, wear sturdy shoes, and have a bunch of fun disturbing the bull frogs at the water's edge. This spring we were able to watch the tadpoles turn into polliwogs, and we are able to see the lake at it's fullest. Fun on many levels. Bring bug repellant and sunscreen, carry a bottle of water. Wave to the fishermen, bikers, and joggers as they enjoy their day. Brady's lake is 3 miles off of Route 940, making it one of those rare spots to hike. Easy access, and perfect peace. Enjoy!

The dmv forms can be readily preprinted from the PA State PennDot dmv website online and can be filled prior to visiting the service center to save time. I am very happy with the service I received here and I highly recommend!

The woman at the counter is extremely rude and treats every customer like a nuisance. * Uncalled-for Comments: Most shocking was the interaction with my carrier. After a civil conversation where I agreed to clear the mailbox as requested, he made a completely inappropriate and baseless comment about "getting out of there before he gets sexually harassed." It was bizarre, offensive, and totally unprovoked. I work for the government myself, and I know for a fact that this isn't how you treat the public. There is a complete lack of professional standards here. This town deserves better than this "jerk" attitude from people who are supposed to be providing a service. they need to get it together'

They are knowledgeable and have been able to not only answer my questions but introduce other information that will assist my query. I'm not a habitual but when I need them, they are there. Knowing. User friendly. Explain with clarity and are bottling to just send one off. I have a once a year visit and thus far... so good!

Unbelievable, SSA put the wrong Plan B start date on my Medicare card. On my first call they told…read moreme they would update the date and send me a corrected card in about 10 days. On my second call after 10 days asking about the status, I was told I had to submit an appeal which I did the same day. On my third call a week later to check status I made the request to be called back since the wait was over 120 minutes. Two and a half hours later I got the call, the person answered took some information, put me on hold and my call was then dropped. Fourth call the day after, today. They no longer offer the option to be called back. After waiting on hold for 4 hours and 4 minutes I was told I had to cancel my plan B coverage and re-apply. Yeah, I feel really good about doing that. I would anticipate a whole new set of issues for cancelling and reapplying. No accountability, requests for appointments result in a response that an appointment is not appropriate given how you have to answer their online questions, or an office appointment is not available. Seemingly no ability to make an appointment at an office in a different zip code. It's basically take your chances now on doing what the third person said or go pound sand. I wish politicians and SSA administrators had to go through the same process the public does. Insanity, I wish I could give SSA a negative rating. If private companies operated this way they would be out of business in no time what so ever.

I got there at 10:45 and noticed that they open at 12;00 so I figured that they must open before 12:00 and sure enough a women and younger man appeared and opened the door, I jumped at of my truck and introduced them as the Elevator Inspector and the women said I would have to wait until 1200. At that point I said the elevator is in the vestibule so I did not have to go inside. again she said no you have to wait, at that point the younger man looked at me as if to say sorry" she's the boss" I therefore I think she needs some additional training to better understand outside of her box and should have said by all means inspect our Elevator.

The Asa Packer Mansion listed as a National Historic Landmark was the home of philanthropist, railroad magnate, and founder of Lehigh University, Asa Packer, from Oct. 16, 1861, to Oct. 29, 1912. Located in Jim Thorpe, this building is recognized by a red-ribbed tin roof and a central cupola proudly atop Packer Hill with the commanding stunning views of the surrounding Pocono Mountains, where my partner, his aunt and I came for a tour today. Tickets were easily available and reasonably priced for the 1pm tour, which covered the entirety of the first and second floors. Our tour guide was a young lady (she mentioned she is a senior in high school) who obviously loves her job and is personally interested in the history of the mansion and family. From the furniture, woodwork, and stained glass to the artwork, she spoke about the history or significance. The mansion is not a restoration where pictures and video are prohibited inside. An amazing walk back in time, for which we can recommend this place.

Our tour guide was very passionate about the subject and brought the story of the home to life. We learned so much about Asa Packer and his family as well as his contributions to the town itself. I highly recommend visiting the mansion. It's very affordable and you won't regret it. The setting is very scenic as it's set atop a gorgeous hill overlooking the region. Bonus points if you have the opportunity to visit during the fall season. You'll be surrounded by the most beautiful foliage. But very important to note, accessing the museum means walking up the hill and some stairs. It's a short walk but could be taxing for some. Very much worth your efforts though!
