We've been to Facenda Whitaker a few times.
Loved it there, Son liked the lanes, went to ABT's there several times. Were warned it is bad area at night. Was easy enough to find.
I agree, travling down to Phila. is scarey if you get lost.
Heck bad things happen everywhere. Our small town was on news a few times for rare shooting. Years back someone killed a cop at my mom's favorite place to work. Made news.
Matter of knowing where to avoid, and who.
One time went to Comp USA down in city area down past Facenda, was a detour coming home, I didn't follow it, took the major route we were on, which went through town, it was late at night and we is white, that area wasn't. We locked our doors and were scared, we knew we weren't where we belonged.
Nothing against black folks but when you're white and end up in an area that is truly bad, it's scarey as all get out. I wish I were rich enough to do something about those kind of areas.
Have a great Aunt who lived her entire life in Phila. She said, not much different than the country, just put your stuff away at dark and stay inside at night.
If I remember correctly a week or two after we went to Towson, that sniper started in the area.
Heck we got off wrong exit in Maryland, scared this country gal.
Seems we go a week before bad stuff. Hope God keeps watching us and keeps us from harms way.
Went to Lancaster and Lebanon Counties, week before tornadoes hit them. My internet buddy was just teasing me, don't want to follow in my path. (smile)
I didn't go to York today. Wish guys were home. Weather has been weird this year in PA.
