My OC journal

[truecrimson]

You were right in the neighborhood

lol, lunch at OCB, and then we can hop over to Army/Navy and look around. I OC'ed in there yesterday. I was a bit concerned as I had heard a report of someone getting hassled there, but no one said anything. Also visited Giant, Turkey Hill, and Wal Mart again.

Looking back through this thread I realize I spend way too much time and money in wal Mart, Giant and Turkey Hill

[truecrimson]

More of the same. Wal Mart in Trexler, the Turkey Hill on Lehigh and the one on Emmaus, Giant on Emmaus.

Friday we went to Philly and I OC'ed picking my fiancee's parents up from the airport. We dropped off their bags at their place, stopped at Hess on Castor and Aramingo, and then headed to Olive Garden on Rooselvelt Blvd. near Grant St. for dinner. As we were walking in I had to return to the car for something, and as I walked back Monica's father exclaimed "Are you wearing a gun?!" I smiled and said "yep." Monica's dad took it prety well, even read a brochure while we were waiting to be seated. Her mom freaked out initially, but calmed down as the night continued. She still doesn't like it, but didn't give me any hassle.

They did prevail upon me not to carry into the Linc on Saturday, for the Kenney Chesney concert, and I left it in the car(I really need a small BUG, like a Kel Tech or something). We didn't even get a pat down.

Today before leaving we went fishing at Frankford Arsenal, but that is another thread.

ETA: I forgot to add K-Mart, a grocery store, and pretzel shop in the same shopping center, and Rite Aid, all on Aramingo near Castor.

Good job, I'm heading out soon for Whitehall and Catty (again), we'll see if I get hassled again.


Let me know when/where you want to get together for a local lunch meetup or something.

[truecrimson]

Cool, let us know what happens.
After we get through the Lebanon dinner I'll try to plan one in the Lehigh valley, but we might be able to have an impromptu one sooner.

[General Geoff]

No problems whatsoever, and I stopped by the Army Navy store to look at holsters, picked up a bite to eat at the diner on the corner of McGarther Road and Grape Street, and got some great deals on sport coats at the Salvation Army store.

Cool. Maybe 3 or 4 of us can get together sometime. I'm still planning on planning a dinner after we get through the one in Lebanon.
