That flea market has ben closed for over 10 years now. It used to be a cotton mill in the early 1900's through the 1970's.

Oh damn I think I know where that is, a bit of a drive for me though, maybe a bored day I will drive over there./

I use to go around there.

If you go straight down 20 through Sneville and pass all that shit it eventualy turns into 81 wich throws you into Porterdale.

[quickdodge®]

^^^ You first have to turn left onto 81 and then it goes to Porterdale. If you turn right, it goes into McDonough. But you're basically right. Later, QD.

Porterdale is real happenin. I live 5 minutes from it or less.

[CHADbee]

i used to work in porterdale. the speed/crackhead hood. thats a fucked up town, if u wanna call it that. if i was u i would'nt be out there taking pictures of ur car they'd most likely arrest u and impond ur car. po po be trippin out there.

Right. I was thinking if you went all the way down 20 through Conyers and out the other side. I wasn't even thinking about hitting up 20/78/81 in Loganville. Later, QD.
