KSU (kick stand up) at 9:10 AM ET
(Click the photo for a close-up view of Dave's vest) |
So, I begin my adventure! My wife Diane snapped this photo just before I
left. She's the seamstress behind the vest's handiwork and has been great in
supporting this endeavor of mine from the beginning.
What started out as a very overcast and cool morning in Kingston, N.Y.,
eventually led to a hot (90 degrees) afternoon in central Pa. I'm now further
west (Clarion, Pa.), just off of Route 80 - my first stop. I ran through two storms
- the first being a heavy (albeit short) downpour accompanied by bolts of
lightning in the Pocono Mountains - and then a passing rain near Dubois. The
storms cool and clean the air and the smell of negative ions is wonderful.
Traffic was unexpectedly light given that Route 80 is normally laden with
tractor-trailer traffic. Road work was minimal so no significant delays :^). All
in all a good day riding! More tomorrow.... Dave
