Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
There sure are lots of covered bridges in Pennsylvania. And lots of awesome vistas to check out the fall foilage.
When I get a chance, I will give some suggestions.
Sounds like a great trip you are about to embark on.
Curious if anyone has any suggestions of restaurants, taverns, general stores, picnic areas, well you get the point...places to eat or get supplies amongst the PA forests.
Obviously I know a few...just looking for others thoughts on local places to spend my food money.

Getting a bit more interested in planning a trip here. Looking to see if any members are familiar with the area.
Just want to try a different area of PA and do some scouting.
