First Day complete. It was much more chilly than we anticipated. Only did 375 miles today. Tried to avoid storms from both hurricanes. So, instead of traveling south down I-81, we chose to head west on I-80 before heading south on I-99. Just before we stopped for lunch, it started to lightly rain, so we decided to stop and put on our rain gear. Then we stopped at Otto’s Pub & Brewery for lunch after seeing a brochure of Pennsylvania’s Beer Trail map at a rest stop. The food and IPA were great. After lunch, we saw a bunch of wind turbines heading down I-79. Also went through an awesome tunnel. It must have been close to 1.5 miles long through the Allegany Mountain on the PA Turnpike. Then we arrived at Log Cabin Lodge and Suites in Jones Mills, PA. It’s pretty cool and reasonably priced. There was even a zoo but we were too late and it was closed for the day. Overall, it was a good first day.
