Vacation Bottleneck area
AOL was featuring this on their Welcome screen. We have about 4 areas that are trouble areas highlighted on this CNN map. That's out of the entire country! They mention Lancaster, PA (about 35 minutes from me) , the Delaware/Maryland shore, the Jersey shore and the Poconos. I can get to most of these areas in around 3 hours or less. So you can see what a pain it is to travel for us. I have to say I love the Delaware/Maryland shore area and Lancaster. When you go to places a lot, you learn the back roads, etc.
Speaking of traveling, even venturing down to Philadelphia is a trip and a half. We were thinking about going to the Live 8 concert, but with all the masses of people it's a turn-off. I am sure people will be sleeping around the concert area (if this is allowed). It's all they talk about on the news. I had forgotten the tickets to the Live Aid concert back in 1985 were $50 each. It was in the old JFK stadium and it was hot! I was pregnant (not with Sean, had a miscarriage), so we taped it all. It doesn't seem like it was 20 years ago.

This, plus the concert downtown tomorrow, is why I don't plan on leaving the house this weekend LOL! I can see some local fireworks from outside my apartment building. Maybe if I'm really lucky, the guy upstairs will get drunk again and set off stuff on the sidewalk. That's always entertaining (/sarcasm).
