East Coast Trip - days 2 & 3

7/30 found us in Intercourse, PA where we spent the night @Best Western (not good, very musty smelling & strong odor from horse & buggys passing by). Checked out the town & some of the shops.......okay, if you like lots of people shopping and most shops carry close to the same items. Carl decided to go play golf at Honeybrook up the road aways - got to play with a father/daughter/son threesome, thoroughly enjoying himself. I stayed at the motel and finished reading the second book I brought on the trip. Ended up going out Rte 30 to the Texas Road House ordering a very good ribsteak dinner.

7/31: appeared to be a sunny day by the time we got up moving for breakfast. Decided to spend the day around Harrisburg after eating at our favorite breakfast place "Cracker Barrel". Wanted to visit the state capital and the National Civil War Museum. Starting to rain, then really rained so good thing we wanted to see the museum. Great museum showing both sides of the Civil War, well worth the 2+ hours we spent reading & watching their displays. Spending the next couple of nights in Exton, PA at Holiday Inn Express. Will check out Valley Forge tomorrow and whatever else catches our fancy...may go check out Hersey, PA as well.
