When the wife was recently in glorious crime free Baltimore she was told to stay within one block of her fine downtown hotel. Oh, and NOT to look certain people in the eye while outside due to racial tension.
I did not follow that advice. I was suffering from a horrible allergy attack and while a relative was in surgery my youngest brother and I decided to find the not too far away Walgreens. Except we could not find it and we walked and walked and walked, clearly the area becoming more and more run down with each step we took. I have no idea how far we walked, but we were not in a good area. The further we went the more deserted buildings with windows boarded up we saw. No one bothered us though. And we did finally find the Walgreens.
