We're on the Road Again... Southwest to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Eric & I start our trip south
to Pennsylvania in the rain.







This often traveled route looks and feels very different today.

The mountains in the Schoharie

Valley are cloaked in fog.

Interstate 88 looks like it is

threading its way through

an eerie landscape.

I expect to see a Yeti or a troop

of Hobbits & Gandalf, the

 Wizard, making their way

down the mountainside.

The fog lifts & green fields

appear....

"The Franken-Tree" towers

above the mountains.

Because this cell tower is so tall there's no need to disguise it.  Everyone knows what it is.

The westbound detour

through Binghamton

is still effect.

The Interstate 88 and Interstate 81 Interchange in this city is a multi-year project.

We continue south onto

Interstate 81.

Eric & I cross into 

Pennsylvania.

Sweeteners Plus....

...manufactures liquid

& solid sweeteners.

Eric & I leave the highway

for a stop at Flying J.

Burning Bush Petroleum....

... makes me a bit

nervous.

 

Eric & I fill our propane

tank at $2.29 per gallon.

It's a good price.

And, we top off the diesel

tank in our motorhome.

Wilkes-Barre spreads

out below us.

Interstate 83 South/US 322 East

brings us into Harrisburg.

Eric & I are spending the

night at Walmart in

Harrisburg.

Two years ago, I visited Weis Markets and Aldi in 2012, the last time we stayed in Harrisburg.
