Jim's on South Street closes at ten on Sundays.
Ninth and Passyunk is south of Washington, not north.
Never seen two cops standing guard side-by-side in a Wawa's before.
U. S. 29 is empty at 3AM Monday.

That temple in Edison has a very bright dome.

O-musubi place on 45th just east of Grand Central! Yay for new restaurant finds!
$18.50 to get from Grand Central to New Haven? I only paid $20 to get from Silver Spring to New York!
What are Virginia Railway Express railcars doing up here in New Haven?
My parents' hometown needs more sidewalks.
