Scranton Daily Photo

This site is dedicated to creating and sharing a visual record that captures the distinctive character of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area and the Pocono Mountains of Northeast Pennsylvania. The neighboring cities of Scranton and Wilkes-Barre are often collectively referred to as EC/DC (as in Electric City/Diamond City). While historically known as the Electric City, Scranton is currently more famous for being home to a small but not insignificant branch of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company.

Bad for Business

Burned Out House

Sonia's Cuban Deli

This burned out and abandoned house, quite the eyesore, is located right next to Sonia's Cuban Deli. I'm sure it didn't help bring in the customers. Every city has its warts.

Lackawanna Riverfest 2011

Today is Lackawanna Riverfest 2011. The annual festival includes canoe and kayak trips that begin in Archbald and Blakely to the north of the city, and end in the middle of Scranton. Unfortunately, the caption on this sign at the finish could refer to today's festival. It was beautiful early in the morning when this photo was taken, but by noon showers and thunderstorms had arrived in Scranton instead of canoers.

The Visitor

This Pennsylvania wood frog paid me a visit last night. This picture was shot through the glass door the frog was climbing.
