Day 42: From New Waterford, OH to Washington, PA: 61 miles

Another gorgeous morning




WOOO!! Back in the land of interesting! Today was amazing, 62 miles of many rolling hills, climbs, and steep grades, all rewarded by fun descents, twists and turns, and fast speeds. WE also crossed into State #11 today, Pennsylvania. Once again, no state sign but I did manage to take a picture of a sign about .2 miles from when we entered the state because it was the first evidence I found that I was in PA. We rolled through lunch and had McDonalds lunch in Burgettstown.

After that, we continued on and stopped at a bee farm to get come locally made goodies. Tonight, Laura has graciously bought the ladies a hotel for tomorrow night. This will be especially nice for Martha, seeing as she took a tumble a couple days ago and had to go to the hospital to get checked out. She is a bit sore and due to the combination of her muscle relaxer and the fact she hit her head, a bit out of it .I think her spirits are especially low because she has not rode the past two days and I can’t imagine how seeing us ride these landscapes while she is in the van is making her feel. I hope tomorrow she is feeling well rested and ready to rock it.
