Keep on trucken

With the half-way point behind us, we're now set for the rest of Pennsylvannia. My girlfriend has sadly left Duncannon, but on the bright side, I ran into a couple we met in the Shennendoahs who live near here. I'm staying with them tonight while I rest my knees, and they're taking me to Port Clinton where I'll meet up with T-toe again (she went ahead to see a relative for a day). You'll all be pleased that T-toe and I both passed the half-gallon challenge in Pine Grove Furnace. T-toe had a respectible time, but I took 73 minutes to eat my butter pecan box. They didn't think I could do it, but I pulled through. .We've enjoyed some great weather and my girlfriend really got to see a nice slice of trail life. In Boiling Springs we feasted on the fare of a real grocery store, and that night we stayed at a quirky B&B owned and run by two older individuals still living in the 50s. Did you know that the question "this is a historical house?" has an hour-long answer? At least they were only 70% homophobic. How can you beat that? In all honesty, it was a pleasant stay. Lots of corn and wheat fields lately, and we've eaten all sorts of wild berries with no ill effects. I'm excited to relax my legs and read for a few days, then the last of PA! -Sparky
