Beautiful country up there, I see Fall has set in, still green here, what kind of fuel mileage are you getting on these trips?

Why cross a bridge when you can drive through the creek?

This is Hynerview State Park. I've posted pictures of this before.

I'm no expert but I'm guessing that is not a regulation shade of green.

Austin Dam. Ruptured in 1911. This brought about regulations for Dam building in PA. 78 people died. Probably more but this was the documented number.

The first fuel stop showed a little over 17 mpg. At that point in the trip our avg speed was probably 40 - 45 mph and not many up hills. After that we did around 52 mph the rest of the trip but I did not check mileage. My gauge doesn't work and it's on the winter fix it list.

Doing some more Fall foliage touring tomorrow and Saturday. Have a friend bringing his A2 to join us and on Saturday there should be a few others. This is from his trip up and he should be here around 5 pm.

More pictures to follow. He's driving 450 miles to get here so we're going to get as much in as possible.

Looks good in my garage, doesn't it? Too bad it can't stay. We're heading out around 8:15. Looks like light rain today, sunshine tomorrow.

Foliage tour went well. First day we had light rain for a couple of hours, temperature was low 40's. Second day was sunny and in the 50's. We did 186 and 174 mile days. Both A2's ran perfect. The CJ5 joined us the 2nd day.
