I used to drive down now and again. I bought many, many cars from there. The museum section was wonderful!

It was terrible about Everett's accident.
I agree that the accident was horrible, but the recovery by Everett is remarkable! The last time I saw him at Hershey almost 2 years ago, he is able to maneuver on his new legs almost as if he was born with them! I'd hate to see whaI i would be like on them if it had been me that suffered the massive injuires!

It's amazing how people can cope with adversity like that. My supervisor at work lost a leg to cancer, and unless you knew about it you would never know. He runs around work with his prosthetic as if it was a natural thing.

But I do also agree with Everett. His ability to cope with everything after his accident was just amazing. I knew him too, and have been to his place in New Jersey a few times. I have picked up some amazing stuff and have some great photos of the Museum.

I got so many of my Lesney Superfasts from there...it was so convenient, too. Just about an hour or so down 295, to 42, which turned into 55, to the Malaga exit. Those were the days.
