Title: Yet ANOTHER wicked weekend in PA.
Post by: pizzleboy on October 20, 2003, 08:55:39 AM
This time, we decided to stay in Emporium instead of Renovo.

we tore down 120 to Renovo and spent Saturtay burning up 144 north and south from Renovo.  But DAMN! it was cold.  only about 45.  So I had my tights, jeans, polar fleece pants and wind pants on, with balaclaza, skigloves and 3 shirts under mi lined jacket!!

Then we went back to Emporium and had a fabulous dinner at the Pizza Palace.  We also bough 4 cases of yeungling beer to smuggle back home  :mrgreen: .

On Sunday, we woke up, tore down 120 and burned up 144 again.  This time we took some amazing pics of us tearing through the twisties.  I'll try to post them ASAP.  Then we drove home.

I really hope that you folks in the PA area appreciate what an amazing road 144 actually is.

Well, TTFN

Renovo is about 30 miles north west of Williamsport.  Emporium is about 50 miles north/west of Renovo on 120.  

120 is not too bad either, fast with nice scenery.

There is also another road:  4001 side road, but we've never found it, cause it's not on any map.

MS Streets and Trips 2002 strikes again!  Check out this screen shot showing side road 4001: http://www.bbburma.net/Maps/Renovo_PA_Road4001.jpg

It looks like if you've ever been to Kettle Creek State Park, you've taken 4001.

Hard to believe there are 4000 other side roads in PA besides this #4001.
