Also there seems to be a shortage greenery in the streets (at least on the ones I visit) So Manchester is high up on my "not to go again" list. |

A friend and I were driving through to California. The tow tuck took us to a garage but it was closed and we had to wait till the next morning to get it looked at. I prayed all night and promised God my first born if he let me get out alive. Lol. I never want to go back there again! |
