Slept late and had coffee and light continental at the motel. A lot of places around here have pickups and there is so much gas drilling (fracking) going on that we assume field guys are staying at these small (cheap) motels. This place was actually pretty nice.
We had perfect weather today, cool enough to warrant a couple layers but never too cold. We found and followed Rt 6 across Pennsylvania, a really wide state and although the official map said it was "scenic", we saw a lot more scenic stuff getting lost on small side roads. Dave put "closest distance" into his GPS and that sucker shoved us down every goat path it could find. Today's goat paths were nicely paved with no traffic. Where is really wigs out is when you go through a medium sized town and it takes you down side alleys and through backyards if it thinks it is 50 feet shorter. Yesterdays goat paths were closer to real goat paths with rough and dirt roads. Our goal was Millersburg OH where some of our ancestors moved back in the early 1800's but we only got to Canton, a half hour short. Found what even Dave thought were the worst motels we had seen and picked the one that did not have the room door stoved in. Only catch is there is no refund after 5 minutes so you have to check the room out quick! No roaches so we found a salad/bbq place and ate something green for a change. Insanely bad wifi so this may or may not post.
