[Fot] Way Home from Glen

[WILLIAM TOBIN]

Hi Marty, you sure you got the right route? It is probably Rt. 86, the old Rt 17/ Southern Tier Expressway, that you're referring to. It goes across the southern part of NY state. It is kind of deserted in spots.
Bath/Hammondsport is a nice area, not far from the Glen. It's a hike to Olean, the next bigger city. Just north of Salamanca is Ellicottville, a neat resort/ski area with nice restaurants and shops. Jamestown is next, birthplace of Lucille Ball. Then I90 and Erie. Nice park at Presque Isle. Joe and Uncle Jack stopped by last spring. Joe picked up dinner and I bought ice cream at the park. Lots of places to stay and eat around Erie.
Next is Ohio, home of those dreadful Buckeyes! But you knew that.
Hope this helps.
See you next week.
Bill
PS, top off your tanks in Ohio or PA, gas is more expensive in NY.

    The wife and I are going to make the trip home to Ohio a leisurely one. Probable leave the track Sunday after things wrap up and spend the night someplace mid Pennsylvania off 87. Any of you PA folks have anywhere neat to suggest? Something nice and quiet not too touristy. You know, someplace the wife can take me out to diner and wine and dine me and show her appreciation for me taking her to the race track for the weekend and letting her hang with all you celebrities.  
     
    Marty
