And the unions didn't get greedy. The companies left because they could move south and not have to pay their people anything. Love how people blame the victims when something bad happens.
Where else can you watch a bag lady wander around dodging traffic? Get stabbed in one of our nicer bars!? Smell the piss in the underpass! Watch half the population rush on the banks the first of the month to cash their welfare checks? Where I ask you America!?
It has been years since I moved from Cumberland...(lets just say Cumberland still had the Queen City Brewery...), and I want to thank you for posting these videos
showing my home town...I miss the old place...I really miss Old German beer...lol
MrNevahl - A brewery would be an excellent idea... Tell the health department and the state TAXING AUTHORITES to stop trying to screw a small brewery up the butt every time they try to locate in Cumberland and we would be good to go. You are so right about german based beer - this community HAD it all until the unions came and got greedy.
Have you walked the historic district, flew into the nearby small plane airport for a fly in breakfast, bought produce and quail eggs downtown during the farmers market, listened and danced to the outside bands on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday? How about canoed at rocky gap and creeks/river along the canal? How about crossed the nearby privately owed toll bridge that cost around a quarter? How about bought quail and other items at Sundays flea markets just outside the city.. dooh!
Sorry joshl1027, I hope that you are okay with just Fort Hill Rocks.. I had to remove the comment because of the content... Let us just say that Overnight "Campers" are not normally allowed in the city limit without special permission.... he he he I DO know who they are but I think it's "nuff said".
When is the last time you went to the local skate board park, hiked and biked the trail, visited any museum here, roller skated in our two roller skating facilities, partied at all of our local clubs, rode the scenic train and caboose, went to any of a dozen parks, swam in our large community pools, walked the arts walks, made bead art in the arts bus, participated in heritage days in many locations through-out the county...

If you are retired (near dead) well, it's perfect considering housing prices.
