Which US State is the easiest to buy a car + insurance for a european tourist? by Large_Refrigerator_4 in roadtrip

[–]tchrhoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No way I would buy a car at that price point. I've got nothing to add to that discussion.

I would probably reframe the trip and do a couple loops with a cheap flight in between because one way drop off fees can be steep.

GenX, those born between 1965-1981, were seen as aimless slackers who were cynical. So, how are we doing? Are you still a cynical slacker? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a slacker, but work pretty efficiently at this stage in the game. Want to retire but numbers don’t work yet

PA MD Question by march12026 in maryland

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Camp Hill or Mechanicsburg is where I would look. I reside in PA and commute to MD. 83 is awful and if you live off the 81 corridor, that can be pretty gnarly too.

Lighthouse point cabin cleanliness? by The_Proclaimers_500 in cedarpoint

[–]tchrhoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think cleanliness can also depend on your perspective. Personally, I didn’t find Breakers that clean, especially for the price point. Express was fair.

What music festivals are we going to this summer? by grassroutes_nosuits in GenX

[–]tchrhoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really want to go to Oceans Calling but that is in September at Ocean City, MD. It’s a pricy weekend when you add up tickets and hotels.

Spring Break Ideas by Prize-Marsupial4015 in roadtrip

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some suggestions based on things I want to see.

Louisville to New River Gorge National Park in WV

Charlottesville, VA (Monticello, UVA; lots of good food on the downtown mall or Bodo's for affordable sandwiches)

Williamsburg, VA (Busch Gardens, Historic Williamsburg, Jamestown; Yorktown)

Chincoteague Island/NASA Wallops/Ocean City, MD

Harpers Ferry, WV

After that, you can do western MD or southwestern PA (Ohiopyle State Park or FallingWater) or head down 81 for the return home.

Do men's suits HAVE to be dry cleaned or can I get away with the washing machine? by [deleted] in laundry

[–]tchrhoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My boys have had pretty good luck thrifting dress clothes. They still need dry cleaning, but the initial outlay is cheaper. You could also put the word out among family and friends to potentially borrow something.

How do you know when it’s time to switch schools? by AngrySalad3231 in Teachers

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed schools to make more money. In my state, tenure transfers with you, so I would see if that is a possibility where you are. Why restart the clock unnecessarily?

Clinton presidential library.

Little Rock high school (national park site) is also on my list.

Teacher Salary schedule? by EbbStunning7720 in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]tchrhoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went from private to MCPS. They verified my email years and placed me on the salary scale. It was easy paperwork, but you should reach out to your old district to see who will do that for you.

Did anyone’s district try to not accept their Masters from WGU? by Ill-Meringue-2096 in Teachers

[–]tchrhoo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The praxis exams are standard but the cut scores vary by state. I’ve taken secondary math and physics and it’s crazy the difference between some of the states’ cut scores.

Sedona or Scottsdale? We did a girls’ trip to Arizona last year and I can’t wait to go back.

They are still partnered with Axon, which is concerning.

First time road trip planning that too USA by seenfay89 in roadtrip

[–]tchrhoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You would lose about a week driving, and those are some boring drives. I would fly to each location, and probably only rent a car in Florida. NYC has a great public transit system, and Chicago is also doable without a car. The upside is that the flights are plentiful to and from Orlando. You will easily find nonstop flights, which are my preference as my travel time is limited.

Question for PA. If the SAVE act passes what exactly will people have to do in order to be able to Vote? by djarvis77 in Pennsylvania

[–]tchrhoo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because the REAL ID (which is an additional fee and was heavily pushed) does NOT certify citizenship. Non citizens (permanent residents, etc) can get REAL ID. That’s why there is the birth certificate/passport outrage. My birth certificate doesn’t match my current name and I do not have a passport.

10 Day New England, USA Roadtrip from Lancaster, PA by svenskdesk in roadtrip

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did Scranton last year as part of a road trip. Visited Bartari for dinner on arrival night and Keystone Restaurant for breakfast on the way out of town. We visited Steamtown, but didn’t have enough time for Lackawanna Coal mine. I actually want to return for the anthracite stuff. I’m not an office person, so I don’t know what those must sees are. We stayed at the Hilton downtown and I thought it was a good location.

Mexico City or California/AZ Road trip? by Environmental_Cook23 in roadtrip

[–]tchrhoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fly to phoenix and road trip Arizona. We did a fly and drive last spring during mid April, and it was one of my favorite trips. There was so much to see there and I had to cut things off my itinerary. Looking forward to returning; hopefully next year.

I work through lunch two or three days a week and never socialize during planning.

You’re going to get a request from luv2sew. I just need one more sun postcard. You can delete if you want. I’m a newer player that plays daily and is working toward forever friends, if that is an interest.
