Perdue Plant in Maryland

Syc, I know you passed it, but you probably didn't realize at the time. (I've seen your Ocean City trip report on your website, and it's good, I liked an "outsider's" viewpoint).

Anyway, in Salisbury, MD, on Rt. 50, is the Purdue chicken processing plant. A stoplight is right there at the entrance for the "chicken-trucks". Hope that you never get caught at that light on a hot summer day on your way to the beach with no AC in your car. Cause if you windows are open - Yuck... It's the worst smell you'll ever smell. Even the McDonald's across the street has moved, as of last year, because the customers, (mainly beach goers and comers), complained. McD's moved to the other side of Salisbury, just off Rt. 50.

Syc, I loved your take on OC, MD. We vacation there every year since it's close. I can do without the boardwalk sometimes, but I really enjoyed you review.
