Not sure how it happened but apparently this truck flipped onto its side, spilling a load of trash onto the street. Was a slow news day locally so two helicopters were overhead filming. #swarthmore #trash #accident #truck #delco

I inspected all the containers that accumulated water during last week's steady rain. Every single one had a thriving population of mosquito larvae. I wish our town sent out regular reminders to residents to dump stagnant water. Would make a huge difference. #mosquitoes #insects #swarthmore #delco #pennsylvania #rain #water #aedes

We had so much rain yesterday that water was jetting up from the basement floor in fountains at multiple locations. Yea, that's not good. Concrete repairs are on my to-do list. As is checking gutters. #swarthmore #delco #pennsylvania #rain #flooding #weather #basement #cats

I visited my garden yesterday and several wood stakes that I'd pounded into the ground were horizontal and in some cases several feet from their original positions. And two trellises were bent over 10° or so. I initially thought "vandalism" but it turns out the winds from yesterday's storm were clocked at 95-105 mph. Peas and fava beans took a hit from the hail, too. Took an hour to clean up. #weather #delco #swarthmore #garden #wind #allotment #gardening

Every borough, town, and city should have a webpage that discourages residents from subscribing to those frequent (every 2-3 week) insecticide applications from companies like Mosquito Shield, Mosquito Joe, and Mosquito Squad. As an example, here's the blurb from Media, Pennsylvania, the town next to me. #mosquito #mosquitoes #spraying #pollinators #insects #pesticides #government #mediapa #delco #pennsylvania #pyrethroids mediaborough.com/446/Mosquito-

@Jaden3 I live *near* #philly which I would say so many great places to eat *everything* and drink too ..
But I actually live *in* #delco and my section has thousands of rowhouses, dollar stores, strip malls (mostly occupied which is nice) and of course a #wawa on every corner 🤪
When I was little I lived in NYC and thought this was The Countryside when I came to visit my grandparents

My neighbor had a dryer fire and my house was uninhabitable for an hour 💩

I am a special snowflake so I have AQI monitors, air filters running etc on a regular day and boy howdy those things do carry on even when the actual smoke alarms don’t kick up (working as designed)

Friday evening has started early because the 5 minutes between knowing there *was* a fire and actually *locating* the fire was way stressful

Did we call the fire department?😵 Nah…

I am getting to know my neighbors because I’m in my front yard with a cute puppy every day. Last week one of them was offloading a 20 pound turkey (frozen fortunately). In vain did I protest that it was just me and the dog. (It’s bigger than the dog actually.)

This is my job through New Year’s.
Now in the oven, and I was lucky to have a roasting pan that it only overhangs a little.

Everyone gets turkey tetrazzini casseroles. Turkey salad. Turkey egg rolls. Turkey until Easter. #delco

We were out front before sunrise, and it was totally quiet until a car door closed somewhere up the street. Seamus began barking hopefully, and chased back and forth along the fence as two young men walked up the street with packages, having the look of guys who had just driven awhile. ‘Merry Christmas!’ they told us. ‘Good morning, Merry Christmas’ and Seamus watched them until the door up the street opened to welcome them in. And it does feel like Christmas now. #delco
