Is anyone located in Central PA? There are Pittsburgh and Philly groups.
I'm in West-Central PA, in Jennerstown, PA. Anyone from Altoona, Johnstown, State College,etc?
I am from Altoona. I just joined this message board this past weekend. Funny to see someone else post from my area soon soon!

Sorry, when I posted that, for some odd reason, it only showed the first post and I paid attention to the date of the last post, which of course was more recent. I didn't realize this thread had been started so long ago.
not a problem! I'm in Altoona several days a month. It's not a very active thread unfortunately. Where are you in the adoption triad? As you can tell from my posts, I am a birthmom in reunion
I currently live outside of Johnstown in a lil town called Cramer. I'm originally from NY...so I know not much help.
I'm an adoptee and a birthmom-just reunited by phone yesterday with my 15 year old daughter. We are meeting the end of the month when Im in NY.
My husband and I are just starting to research the way we need/want to go. We have been unable to conceive after 3 years and have started to look into our other options to becoming parents. We are leaning towards adoption from foster care.

Hi all! It's been a while since I was on this thread... hello all to live in central PA. What's happening with everyone?
15 year olds can be such fun! I have a friend who actually adopted a young man in his 20s and boasted that she'd avoided the teenage years too! My oldest grandson will be 15 this month (scary thought!) Of course my birth son will be 37 this year (now that's really scary!!!)
It sounds like both you and your husband have long commutes! What do you do? If you've read the thread, you've probably picked up on the fact that I am a pastor. I currently serve two small congregations. I moved to my current call in January of this year. I've complicated my life recently by (1) adopting a puppy (my husband is thrilled!) and (2) breaking my ankle- actually my fibula where it connects to the ankle. Both have slowed me down a bit. My puppy thinks I am a chew toy.
I travel 322 a fair amount since my 15 year old grandson lives in Lewistown. Tell me about your son - what does he like to do?
I currently live in Williamstown (You've probably never heard of it... it's in Upper Dauphin Co. on the edge of Schulkill Co.
Yep, 15 so far has been a ball.... He'll be 16 in August, so my husband and I are already calling him our designated driver :clap: . He is working at the dropzone we work at every weekend, editing videos and packing my parachute for me, so he's enjoying making a little money as well.
What kind of puppy did you adopt? We have 3 dogs, all rescues as well.
I hope your ankle heals fast!!!
I'm an eye doctor, and my husband is recently unemployed. So now he's working with a temp agency for no benefits and 1/3 the pay (what crappy timing!) I'm working 6-7 days a week to pick up the slack. He'll be going to HACC soon to get an Associates Degree.
If you drive 322 a lot, you can spit on our house from there if the wind is blowing the right direction. We're about a mile off the Newport exit.

Hi everyone. I'm an AM of 9 yr old he came to us at 6months from Korea. We celebrated airplane day May 26th. We live in Waynesboro( South Mountain). We are getting our 1st full time foster placement on Thursday. His goal is for an adopted family. Hopefully, it will be us.
Hi, Rkirby and Jbee,
I grew up in Waynesboro and although I'm now in upper Dauphin Co., I know Franklin Co. pretty well.
Peregrinerose, I know what you are going through. My husband was a high school teacher; now he substitutes and makes less than 1/4 what he used to make (if we're lucky). The puppy is a miniature schnauzer. He's 4 months old. He's going to be a good dog when he grows up a little. Right now it's like having a two year old in the house. My ankle is now plated and screwed together so it's going to be a fairly long recovery I think.
