I've thought about hopping across the river. But in reality, figure it takes me 15 minutes to get from Torresdale to Palmyra, then $2 (soon to be $3) to get across the Tacony bridge. In the end, I've spent about the same amount of money. If I'm going to buy wine in PA though, I'm gonna buy semi-decent wine. I cannot justify paying $3.50 for a bottle of Boone's...ridiculous.

Although booze is plentiful back home in Missouri (grocery stores, gas stations, etc.), to my knowledge, there are several counties in SW Missouri (the Bible Belt) that are actually dry, as there are apparently in parts of Arkansas. Talk about driving 12 miles on your tractor to town to get a drink.
