I’m busting Jerry, I’m busting!
This might not resonate with readers outside of the Philly area, but I must share this extraordinary news nonetheless.
This morning I drove down Lancaster Ave. (Rt. 30), from the junction of Rt. 252 in Paoli all the way to Radnor-Chester Rd. in St. Davids, without hitting any red lights. If my calculations are correct, that is 18 lights without stopping! The perfect trip! How preposterous is that?
If you’re not familiar with the area, Lancaster Ave. is the most direct (but hardly the fastest) route from Philadelphia to the western ‘burbs, signifying the famous Main Line. (It is also part of the famous Lincoln Highway.) It’s a four lane (two in each direction) road that goes through many towns and has many lights, simlilar to a Commenwealth Ave. in Boston or Broad St. in Richmond.
…now that’s what I call a Good Friday.
