President Bush is visiting, of all places, Franklinton, NC, today. I live in Youngsville, NC, which is directly south of Franklinton. I occasionally go up there for some of my shopping, although we generally head south. There’s a Food Lion in either direction, about equidistant, so there’s no advantage going to Wake Forest or Franklinton. When I started our water service I had to go to Franklinton. They’re basically our ‘big brother’ city to the north, but neither Youngsville nor Franklinton are particularly big. Franklinton has 2300 people, and Youngsville – I dunno – possibly 1000 or so residents, so you can see why it’s rather big news that Bush is coming to town today.
