After the
Poker Run From Hell
I had a week to blow before heading to Philly to celebrate a friend's birthday. Wasn't sure where the hell
I was headed. On my in-state PA SS1K I enjoyed riding along the Delaware Water Gap so I decided to mosey
on over and ride the gap up to Port Jervis.
I ate lunch in Port Jervis and headed for Hawk's Nest - a short section of SR-97 just north Port Jervis
along the Delaware Scenic Byway which runs along the Delaware River. The ride up the Delaware is a nice
scenic ride.
While at the hotel in Binghamton I perused the map and decided to head for the Catskills
the next morning. An ol' boy can easily get lost in the Catskills. I want to go back and ride
a lot more of the area, but did find some roads that went to nowhere, some brilliant colors
and a few covered bridges.
On my way to Philly I decided to check out the Statue of Liberty and Gettysburg. Sure are a lot of
deer in Gettysburg.
The next few days involved attaching what's below to a keg of Fosters, several bottles of
varied strains of liquor, a few bottles of wine and, surprisingly enough, no jail time. I reckon
we're getting old.
