Anyone else see the Joker downtown today?

I was driving up East Pittsburgh St. And saw someone in a full suit with Joker make up on. Just thought it was a hilarious sighting on election day.

Did anybody else see a green light fall out of the sky around 9:20 tonight?

I was driving west on Route 30 tonight, passed by the Arnold Palmer Airport in Latrobe at about 9:20 when I saw a ball of green light sort of materialize from the sky and fall straight downwards. Looked like it would have been right above Greensburg. Just wondering if anyone else saw it or knows what it was.

Home location help

We are considering moving to Greensburg for a job for my husband. We are older -54yrs old. No kids but will have neices and nephews who are preteens visit for extended stays. We currently live in Reading Pa.
Not sure if we will buy or rent. I am open to suggestions on both for referrals. (Depends on how quickly our house sells here) Just looking for places to avoid for major crime areas. I would love to be able to allow the kids to be outside again without massive panic. Thanks for any assistance or information.

Anyone here familiar with Latrobe?

Latrobe doesn't have their own sub, so I figured I'd ask here. I'm looking to buy a house within a reasonable distance to my job in Ligonier. I grew up in Johnstown but the house hunt there is not going well, so I'm starting to look out in the Latrobe area.

Basically I want to know if there are any areas I should avoid when looking, since a realtor can't legally tell me an area is a "bad" one.

Rentals

Hey everyone :)

Does anyone know of any rentals (home/duplex/etc) in the latrobe Greensburg area? We need to move immediately but I really don't want to pull my son from baggaley so pleasant unity area would be perfect. I know it's a long shot but if anyone has heard of anything under 900 a month please let me know:) (We have a medium older dog and a cat in case)

What is Greensburg like now compared to 10 years ago?

Millennial living abroad. I haven't been to the USA in decade. I never lived in Greensburg but worked there for years. Any major differences you can think of? Buying a home somewhere in Westmoreland or Allegheny county.

mom groups?

does anyone know of any groups or places where moms of babies meet up for social reasons? i go to the library for baby groups but they’re obviously pretty focused on entertaining/teaching the babies and less focused on socialization for parents/kids.

i’m relatively new to the area and am a SAHM for at least the next few months and really need to create a social life for myself and my daughter before i go nuts. if any other moms (or women/thems who don’t mind babies!) in their 20s/30s needs a friend who likes indie music, art, fashion…pls hmu. i’m dying out here.

"Experience" idea for adult birthday

My sister is turning 36 in November and has asked for an " experience" for her gift. This could include some sort of course where you learn a fun skill. She lives in Greensburg and I live in Pittsburgh, so anything in that general area is on the table. Any ideas?

(Greensburg) Independence health system.

This is the number one reason I do not go to this hospital I currently live in Greensburg and I will gladly spend more money on gas to drive to a Pittsburgh hospital. I'm from Pittsburgh moved to Greensburg been to this hospital and never went back. The staff and medical team is very unprofessional rude and if there doing this to the elderly they'll do it to anyone. I was sent there from an ambulance the EMT asked the nurse to get me liquid IV because I was dehydrated and my blood pressure was very high I sat there for 3 hours with nothing or nobody coming in the room I just had a bad vibe and my vibes definitely was NOT WRONG! THIS IS ASHAME!

Thoughts on the First Presbyterian Church of Greensburg?

Hello, folks. My wife and I are planning to attend services at the First Presbyterian Church in Greensburg for the first time this weekend. My wife was raised in the Presbyterian tradition, but this will be new for me. Can anyone tell me a little about this local congregation: history, traditions, etc.? Thank you in advance.

Mountain bike trails off the Five Star trail?

Does anyone know of mountain bike trails off the Five Star trail? I often see cyclists on the trail who are geared up for rougher terrain than crushed limestone.

I've heard rumors of trail access by the train tunnel. When you are approaching Lynch field there is a trail just to the right before you go under the tunnel I followed it once but just ended up on the train tracks and didn't see any place to go. Given how active that rail is it seemed like a bad idea to go randomly exploring.
