I'm glad someone else is too. I know Pennsy does, but he is generally a bit more west. Maybe we should organize a lunch or dinner.

South Mountain Reservoir Park Allentown-Lots of foot, ATV, and dirt bike traffic there yesterday. I got a few second looks but no screaming, or fleeing in terror. Even had a long conversation with a guy about places to fish.

Boy, you seem to be a regular at that Giant on Emmaus Avenue. I worked there for 5 years as the cart pushing guy on evenings. I open carry there all the time now when I go food shopping, though admittedly I do it at odd times (usually between midnight and 4am).

If you arrange a lunch or gathering, let me know and I'll try to be there. I live on South 4th Street, so probably not too far away from you.

Yep, it's right at the end of our street. I live straight up the mountain from there. We grocery shop, bank, use the pharmacy, and rent videos there. Frequently we're there at odd hours too, often after often in the midnight to 4am range, though since November I haven't been staying up as late. I used to be mainly night shift, but now am mostly 3-11.

After we get through the Lebanon thing I'll see about arranging one up here. BTW, Do you fish?

I forgot to add Wal Mart in Trexler again. Pex's thread reminded me.

Can't say that I fish, but I do have friends that are probably your neighbors, they live pretty much directly up the mountain from the back exit of Giant (the stoplight intersection), in a cul de sac. One of them carries too, though it's usually concealed since he usually wears suits. In any case, just let me know whenever you get around to arranging something.

Out of curiousity, what local range(s) do you go to? Are you a member of Unami?

When you say the stop light intersection do you mean the one by the Turkey Hill, or the one at 31st St, by the bank? Either way I'm close to them.

I used to go to the game lands range out RT 100 north of 78, but the rules were annoying. I joined Ontellaunee, and have been going there. I'm thinking of joining Topton, it seems to be closer, but it hasn't fit into the budget yet.

I've never heard of Unami, but I would appreciate any info on it. I'm always looking for closer or better ranges.

Yeah I meant the stop light at Turkey Hill.

Unami is about two miles away from you in Emmaus, you make a left off Emmaus Avenue onto 2nd Street, drive a few blocks, and you're there, it's on the left hand side.

I would be up for an OC lunch. I made it all the way in to Woodcraft on Lehigh St. on Friday, as well as the Humane Society and then over to MacArthur Rd. If we go up to Whitehall, there is always the Old Country Buffet!
