Spend enough time in the pines and you’ll swear you heard or saw him.

My favorite depiction of himlots of talented people in the pines

It's some township's water tower. I haven't been able to figure out whose yet.

Yep- Franklin played dirty with his printing press

I did- climbing wasn’t the issue , going down with camera gear was- at one point my lens became disconnected from the body and it smashed down two flights. Fortunately no damage !

Im partial to pecan myself…

blueberry pie hill is another cool place to check out with a clearer view of the city if you’re so inclined

PPA is limited to center city by state law, if memory serves

Edit: i am a wrong

It happens in Chicago as well.

Let PPA just drive down every five minutes with a plate scanner and mail people tickets. Maybe it's because they're essentially a state agency existing entirely for their own benefit but they're nothing if not motivated.

Been a solid decade since I picked anyone up at the airport but every time I tried to use the cellphone lot I ended up lost in Eastwick on the way back to the terminals. I assume with Google navigation it's better now but still a pain.

Well, only South Jersey :) people often forget North Jersey has mountains, and a beautiful chunk of the Appalachian Trail

Have you tried coaxing the cat down with food this sometimes works.

Right but like… We rarely get hung up at the lot anymore. I assume you drive or know the airport well? Think about it.. They’ve changed something with the algorithms or whatever in this post pandemic era.. Its not like drivers are sittin in a lot with a hundred others and skipping rides till they get the NY, DC, Harrisburg, etc distance trips..

It might not be cheaper to fly into Philly and take an Uber the rest of the way to those destinations like before.. But the airport seems to have changed how they operate in conjunction with the ride share companies’ algorithms and passengers’ demands… Theres a marked difference between driving Uber now and driving Uber before the pandemic is basically what I’m getting at… with regards to Philly Airport pickups

You can schedule an appt to climb.

I just think of the Kelce speech. Bet he would have had a banger this time, too.

Let ‘em. More spots in the lot.

Did you make it to the top? Climbing that tower was the most terrifying thing I've ever tried to do. I only made it a few flights before I got totally disoriented and had to climb back down on my butt. My friend only made it one more flight than I. Cool as fuck place though.

I see Johnny Doc made his choice. Hail to the new mayor

The main Uber lot is on Island Ave, across from what used to be the Overseas Terminal. 4700 Island Ave, next to the Double Tree hotel. There is a an additional lot close to the pickup area for Comfort class and Lux vehicles, sharing the lot with limos and other Black car vehicles, next to the cab staging lot past the gatehouse.

I see at at JFK and EWR all the time, particularly EWR as I take people there often. It's not just a PHL thing.

Shouldn't find too many Uber's waiting on the shoulder. There's a lot for them very close to the pickup area, next to the lot for taxis and limos, past the gatehouse that causes the backup there. Safer, closer and there is a bathroom.

You don't have to "loop around". The road empties out onto the approach road for the terminals. Provided there's no traffic it takes seconds. Only problem is there often it traffic from non commercial vehicles getting caught in the line for taxis, Ubers and limos that bears to the right.

There very much is a danger. One of these days there's going to be a bad accident as someone gets hit pulling away from that shoulder, or even trying to slow down to park on it. Cars coming off the highway doing 40-50mph and someone is braking hard to pull into a spot on the shoulder. It's infuriating.
