Nice. I passed thru your neck of the woods earlier this week.
I've followed your trek a bit. That's beautiful country in North Central PA

Anyone go for a ride today?
I was out for a ride today on one of my twisty hilly routes. Went from double-yellow road to no lines no shoulders holler road. I was enjoying my ride when up ahead of me coming right towards me in the middle of the road is a guy riding an ATV, looking straight to his left. I lay on the horn and scoot to the right. He orients himself and scoots to his left -- even more directly towards me! Lucky for me there wasn't a steep dropoff to my right, because off the pavement I went. I was able to keep upright and going forward, and within a few lengths was able to steer back onto the road.
You'd think "keep your eyes on the road" wouldn't be such a novel idea.
Anyhoo, the ride was able to clear my mind of the muck that guy tossed into it by not looking where he was driving.
Ride on!

Charmayne and I decided to run out to Chillicothe to have lunch today at the Old Canal Smokehouse restaurant - http://www.oldcanalsmokehouse.com/. They have a fantastic smoked potato salad and their brisket is very good.
Afterwards, we ran south on Ohio Hwy 772 and took some other interesting side roads that were so rough at times I thought my eye teeth would fall out. Turning north on Hwy 41 and later OH-123, we ended the day with 242 miles.

During one of our last water stops, we discovered she is a bonafide killer of something. We aren't positive but we think a bird might have run into her bike (see the blood on her headlight) and hit her square in the shoulder. We discussed how much her shoulder hurt even with her gear on and it really makes me wonder how people can handle not wearing anything and still be hit by all of the bugs and such.

A small windshield would help too. They don't have to be taller than 12" above the light.
I went for a ride to Delaware County Municipal Airport in Delaware county Ohio. I went for a ride in a 1928 Ford Tri-Motor airplane, "The Tin Goose" It was awesome. It's a very noisy airplane, a lot of mechanical music going there. The wood work done in the cabin was beautiful... It was a nice 375 mile ride with a little bit of rain on my way home. It sure was nice being able to go for a Sunday ride, Motorcycle and Airplane. ☺
