Cumberland County is a pretty nice place, we get over to Pine Grove Furnace to swim every summer.

My wife from Lancaster still makes fun of the way I say some things after being together almost 14 years lol

And yeah the hill thing really amuses me. It's really fun driving a manual transmission out there.

In my town in Lancaster county, the poverty rate is 5%, and the town I used to live in is 17%. Salaries are also significantly higher where I live now, the area is growing, and downtown is busy. Where I'm from, the population is shrinking pretty quickly, and lots of downtowns are filled with mostly empty shops. So comparatively, it's much greener in some ways. But I still like it out there.

But you are correct. It is still Pennsylvania.

I love to visit too, but likewise I have my own family and home and I'm pretty happy where I'm at. And yeah, people pick up where I'm from sometimes based on my vernacular.

Smiley cookies were one of my favorites. We also have friends in Glen Campbell that we visit a couple of times a year, not sure how close that was to you.
