Longjohn Posted February 4, 2020 Share #5 Posted February 4, 2020 2 hours ago, RalphWaldoMooseworth said: Pennsylvania does too. We almost adopted a 15 year old girl from York, Pa. She had lived all her life in an orphanage but we didn’t find her until she was 15. We went out to visit her one weekend and she came back and spent the next weekend with us. All her life she dreamed of having a forever family. We hit it off well, the only problem was now she had a boyfriend and there were too many miles for us to take her to see him. She decided to stay in York. She cried, we cried. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the burgs are named after cities in Holland too. Harlem & Brooklyn come to mind but I’m sure there are more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to deliver semi loads of paint cans to Newark. Where Petri paint was located was a rough neighborhood. The paint company looked like a prison, chain link fence with razor wire on top of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Jersey is vast acres of green meadows, corn and tomatoes, livestock, dense pine forests. Delaware. Sheesh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
