ALONG A RURAL ROAD!

         ALONG A RURAL ROAD!

  Years back a popular radio commentator
used to begin his daily broadcast with the
words "It's a beautiful day in Pennsylvania."
    Well Sunday proved to be one of those
beautiful days. Perfect for a top down ride
in our Miata along some of the roads less
traveled. You just never know what you're
going to see along those back country roads.
It's not uncommon to see a deer or two along
side the roadway. Perhaps even an eagle or
a hawk. But nothing could have prepared us
for the sight we saw along that rural mountaintop
road in Sullivan County! It was a telephone
booth! A standing monument to communication
of days gone by! Now telephone booths are not
extinct. But you're more likely to find onr near
an old country gas station or, perhaps, a rural
post office. This one was pretty much in the
middle of nowhere! Not a house or cottage
that we could see for a good 5 or more miles!
I'm thinking the phone company simply forgot
it! Or, maybe, Big Foot has need to make a call
now and then! Wonder where he keeps all those
quarters? Keep your eyes open out there! Hope
you're well and that all your NEWS is good!
