Blue Cafe
Stopped by the Blue Cafe the other day, new location, just a few doors down the street from the old spot. Now located at 15701 Madison Avenue, bigger space, large windows, different vibe, same great coffee.

Red Caboose
Word on the street is the Red Caboose is closing next month. This was always the place to stop when we were in town. There was a lot of stuff down in that basement. The wall of out of print transportation books was awesome. Found a few gems down there.

Wanda
We caught this rather off-beat, yet cool film the other night. Wanda was filmed primarily in Scranton and Waterbury Connecticut in the fall of 1969. There is a stunning view of the Olyphant Colliery early on in the film, as well as numerous view of downtown Scranton.
