YOU CAN'T GET THERE FROM HERE!


   SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23RD., 2017
   YOU CAN'T GET THERE FROM HERE!

   We were driving through White Haven when
my wife suggested it would be a great day to
take a trip to one of our favorite Ice Cream
Shops for a treat.
    Problem was the shop in question is in
Nescopeck about 30 miles or so from White
Haven!
     I began to think about back roads and
connections that could get us there and a
plan quickly evolved. We'd head west
towards the tiny town of Saint John's
then take Route 93 right to our double
dips!
       That's when we discovered the detour
on the road to Saint John's! I don't know
what they were working on but we found
the next 4 possible routes closed to traffic.
        The detour eventually took us into
Conyngham where, guess what? They
were working on the Main Street!
        Fortunately, we thought, the detour
there was just a few blocks long and
took us right to the same Route 93 we
were looking for all along!
         Of course as it happens Route 93
is being paved and looked like a parking
lot! We sat in line for about 20 minutes
until we were allowed to proceed.
        At last an open highway right to
our destination...........which was closed
for the day!
         Took a different route home and,
yes, we found ice cream along the way!
         Hope those new roads last a few
years......and that all your NEWS is
good!
