We must be informed (and ready to vote this parrott guy OUT!)

Part of Maryland. There is still kkk out there.

and that's where I'm registered, Hagerstown! Quite multi-racial. Haven't noticed any kkk, but will check, next time I visit. (Have an apartment there, but prolly leave it when I can get my act together.)

Here's the town park, 2 blocks from my apartment, on a recent visit:

I have to drive the length of Western Maryland every time I make a trip home to Ohio and I always appeal to any goddesses out there (just to hedge my bets) that my car won't break down in that part of Maryland. The fundie nation is strong out there. It's a shame because the countryside there is what I would consider some of the most beautiful in the country.

Yes, is quite nice, and I just drove from DC area to Dayton for a funeral. Didn't do much 'scenic' on the way out, 70 thru Cumberland to Morgantown, WV, etc., but did do scenic on the way home, rte 50, discussed in Ohio group.

I do hope to be there in next few weeks, to get some REAL strawberries at farm market I've found, in Boonsboro.

I'm not there too often now, as I rent a cottage in southern MD on the Patuxent, but my Ha'town apartment has a view of park area, and is in Ha'town's 'historic' section.

AND we did get John Delaney as our Rep, got rid of that old creep, what's his name.

The skeleton of that huge thing has been rusting for at least 15 years or so.

And believe it or not there's a movement for Western Maryland to become its own state!

And compassionate conservatism means slightly more empathetic but the assholishness they display cancels out the empathy they pretend to display.
