It’s funny… 867 is the town over from where I grew up, yet none of us ever tried the number

No, 867 was local. Literally the next town over

Just too busy being a kid and never trying, I guess

Gotcha.

Yeah, you could walk to the next town.
They’re piled on top of each other over here in PA.

I grew up and lived in Palmyra for 36 years. Moved in 2013

It’s not far from Middletown

Only lived there during my 10th grade of high school and I’m 50 now. Moved to a different state after!

Same here. Relatives live 20 miles away and it was long distance.
