I had a few days off from work and decided to go for a drive on some of my favorite roads along with trying a new one. I started in the Lehigh Valley and ended up in some small town in rural NY state with a post office that was smaller than a 1 car garage.

On nice days when I have nothing planned (fairly infrequent these days), I like to drive up Route 611. I've made it to about the Delaware Water Gap before turning back. I like that road...

just seeing this picture makes me want to go fast! Damn, Florida is so flat!

During the drive I wenr form about 400' abve sea level to 2500' above sea level. In some places I changed elevation by 700' in a couple miles.

611 and 32 are fun roads, but I usually end up getting stuck behind some grandmother doing 20 under the speed limit or a large truck taking its time and crawling along.

I'm out in the Pocono's for ski season, everytime I wish I was driving the Mustang! (of course on clear roads)


Saw this out there, probably a kit but still made my head almost fall off at first glance

This is a cool looking shot! My favorite out of the bunch.

Thanks! Its one of my favorite views on that road. You come around a bend while coming down the mountain and it opens up into farmland. I drowve through there then turned around to go back and take that picture. I was lucky enough to get that shot on the first try.
