Just got home from the beach to find out that a groundhog buried underneath the slab with our propane tanks on the side of our house. Any recommendations for local exterminators in the area? Bonus points for anyone who does property remediation and can help me get the hole backfilled to prevent any other animals from burrowing there also.
I am looking for someone to help me cut plywood. I don't have the right tools for it. I was wondering if anyone knew of any place nearby that I could take it to. I need small ish cuts so homedepot etc won't work
Is it really that necessary to set off fireworks between the intense thunderstorms? I know it’s the 4th of July but it’s not like there’s anything worth celebrating in this country anyway. So many poor animals and vets just trying to get through the night.
Have friends coming over today and don’t have grill to chef it up 👨🍳. Any restaurants / bars staying open this holiday?
I know there is the event with the food trucks and the weather is brutal, but look to see all the options.
Thanks!
my aunt passed last winter. she lived in a little house off bridge street, not far from the river. loved visiting her there when i was a kid. now its mine and i dont know what to do with it.
the house is old like really old probably 1890s. she kept it maintained but the last few years she couldnt keep up the roof has a few bad spots. the basement is damp. and the whole place smells like old wood and dust.
i live in arizona now. i moved out there for work years ago. i cant just fly back to phoenixville every time something needs fixing. i tried calling a few contractors to get quotes but they said theyd have to come look and i was like i cant be there.
a neighbor offered to check on it for me but i feel bad asking. hes got his own life.
i thought about listing it with a realtor but i dont want to deal with showings and inspections and all that from 2000 miles away.
im tempted but i also feel guilty. my aunt loved that house. she wanted me to have it. but i cant keep it and i cant afford to fix it.
has anyone here sold a house in phoenixville without fixing it up first?
Does anyone know of any trivia nights around town that are a bit more modern?
I’ve tried a few local ones, and while they’ve been fine, a lot of them seem to cater more toward an older crowd. I’m in my 30s, so it’s not like I’m that far off, but I find it a bit less fun when so many questions are from decades ago or feel pretty far outside the last 20 years.
I did a “Blockbuster” movie trivia last night and was surprised how few questions were about even semi-recent movies.
Not looking for anything overly niche or super easy. Just wondering if there are any trivia nights with a better mix of recent movies, music, TV, sports, pop culture, etc.
I’ve tried soko bag, rec room, GAP (a while ago) and bistro. Bistro’s was actually okay last time I went so maybe I’ll have to try that one again
I’m officially moving out of Phoenixville (not going far) and I’m trying to figure out the cheapest way to move. More than likely I’ll need movers because I have two couches and my mattress. All of which we could probably move if we had to, but we have a shit ton of stairs. Besides those items, everything else should be pretty easy. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to hire movers (or another idea) that won’t cost us an arm and a leg? Thanks!
I put my drone up to catch Big Boy from the air. The heat was really sucking my battery dry, so I was in the process of bringing the drone back to swap batteries when the train showed up—which sucked because I was loitering lower and had a nice little flight plan that I ended up having to improvise. Still, pretty cool to see!
Hot late afternoon at Valley Forge station. Got to see the Big Boy train! Hope everyone was safe and enjoyed seeing it as well.
Just saw on The Tea Cups page that a children’s store called Dandelions opened next to them on Bridge street Someone go and tell me all about it please. I’m away this week.
I and a few others heard a loud boom spanning from many different distances miles away from each other other. One of said people reported their house shaking upon the noise of the boom. When I heard the sound, it sounded very different from the usual firework. It was also seemingly too early in the day for a firework. It was too loud to be a gunshot as well. Have any others heard this or know what it could’ve been?
> Phoenixville will hold a viewing party for No. 4014 from 3-5 p.m. on Thursday at the Columbia Grand wedding venue at 4 Bridge St. The locomotive is expected to pass through between 4-4:30 p.m. The train will pass over Dayton Street, Bailey Drive and Route 113 before it crosses the tracks at Bridge Street. The train may also be visible from portions of the Schuylkill River Trail, including along Pawlings Road in Schuylkill Township. The train will pass through the area again on the morning of July 7.
Just saw that Phoenixville posted on Instagram that Inside out and First Friday are cancelled for this weekend. I get that it's hot but I pretty much planned my entire weekend around town this weekend and was ending Saturday night with the fireworks.
If it was any other weekend I wouldn't question it, but being that it is a holiday weekend is extremely disappointing.
Where is the best place to watch the game tonight? Any local events / bars / restaurants best to watch the game? I saw KOP mall is holding an outdoor event but it will probably be too hot in the parking lot
Hi, looking for intermediate to advanced play, not on wood courts. Maybe with leagues and open play, preferably indoors. I see there’s a spot in Audubon..Can anyone recommend an active club or place?
Thank you.
Hello! I am looking for a PCP in our area that is accepting New patients, but has more of an integrated approach. My husband and I both have chronic illness issues, and I am looking for someone who understands GI issues, EDS, POTS, Degenerative disc disease, etc. Thank you!
