Day 4




Left Danville, PA--and those lovely, warm beds--and headed to Zion. During the day, we biked through two state parks, a long stretch of rolling hills in Amish country and at least one mountain.











We discovered that the Amish give the best road advice and directions, particularly when it comes to distances and road conditions. Let it be known that you can still get two scoops of delicious ice cream in this country for only one dollar.






We arrived in Mingoville, where Donna Reese hooked us up with a sweet spot in the city park. Thanks, Donna! You're awesome, even if you still think we're crazy. After a bit of freshening up, we rode down to Michael's Tavern at the Y in Zion for dinner. Because they live on the edge of Happy Valley (Penn State territory), the patrons and owners were not very excited about Lisa's Iowa Hawkeye jacket (which she purposefully wore with pride). They were, however, very impressed with her capulana pants.
