I had the best weekend I have had in a long time. One big reason is I am finally living full time with the family again in our new place in the Houston area. Some may remember I had to take a job here, with the family home being in Dallas. So I got home every Friday night late, spent Saturday catching up on chores, Sunday morning with the kids, and back on the road Sunday night.
Well this weekend I rode all day Saturday. Not even sure where I was most of the time, but I know damn sure I was on my bike. Sunday we carved pumpkins in the morning, fixed up a play area in the back yard for the kids, and then went Trick-or-Treating on Sunday night.
Man I love my family!!!!

Grand Canyon of PA a couple of weekends ago - Nice day trip - When I get better tires will try the forest roads @ the end of the rim trail.
In the 19th century guys w/ stones the size of basketballs forested this area for mine timbers. - The bicycle trail was the roadbed of the RR

They run an excursion train in the general area of the PA Grand Canyon - Not sure where it starts or ends - Rolling stock looks to be in good shape

Hey Savage, I have been there many times. Way back when I hiked a lot I did all the trails in that area. Absolutely beautiful part of PA. That train starts at Wellsboro Junction, on route 287 just a little north of Wellsboro. I do not know how far north it goes, probably into NY at least. Did you eat in the Wellsboro Diner?

That IS an interesting find. Makes one wonder the story behind it all. Savage we'll have to see if we cant bang out a few miles next season. That grave site wasn't on rt 414 was it?
Yup; East side of 414, 50 - 100 yards North of Hector Falls, about as pretty a spot as can be imagined. - Am I too much of a romantic to think that in 1871, previous to the highway, it was a great place to get laid?
Looking forward to next year - Want to trace the Delaware & the Susquehanna

414 Huh? That is a great road I forgot about till you mentioned it. As for getting laid there I think I will let you two explore that ???!!!???? Hahahaha

Bangin'...getting laid...I'm sensing a theme here. What could one expect at a place called Big Johnson's"?
Catchy. Head to toe raincoats, anyone? JKLMFAO!!!
