Guest Bernadette DeMoro Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 We were “lost” in the same area about three years ago in an extended camping trip. I got on Highway 12 and thought I was never going to find the end of it. Bernadette I believe where you were "lost" is now part of or very near to Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. I have never been there, sounds like a good road trip for me. I will wait until fall, though, as it is now nearing 100? in the shade here in my little town.

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I-84 Utah - splits off I-15 north of Ogden up by, uh, Elwood, Garland.

Guest Jennifer Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hi all! Pat and I are leaving for Atlanta and will be gone for a week. We know that the current system of member approval and short moderation of new members works well, since we have been spam free for some time now! But it requires our attention, and we will be away for a week without Internet access. So, during that time we have changed the status of the list to automatic member joining, and any new members who join this week will not be moderated. I hope not, but there could be spam this week. We will deal with any offenders when we return. If we can find access before, we will try our best to address it sooner. Time to hit the road, Jennifer Bremer American Road Yahoo Group Moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darlene Petralia Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks Matt, I'll have to look perhaps the US 11 may be a good idea, however, as much as I love the Skyline, hauling a long trailer around those curves and especially the downside of the mountains, is white knuckle time for hubby. We are newbies with the trailer, and need to err on the side of caution right now. Nothing good north of Harrisburg? There are some mildly hair raising points on I-81 south of Binghamton in PA. I'll have to get the exact routes, but we have found a couple of lovely ways around the Princeton NJ/Eastern PA area. Meandering up to 287 North. When I find them, I'll put them up for anyone interested. Other beautiful drives include along the Hudson River on the East side, old farms, horse farms, etc. And of interest, but not so lovely are the "mental institutions" that have been closed for a long time. Abandoned, they conjure up all sorts of thoughts, and imaginings. I do remember my mother saying if we didn't behave we would "drive her to Poughkeepsie".

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hi Darlene, Oh girl, I love your understatement about the "beautiful drives include along the Hudson River on the East side, old farms, horse farms, etc". LOL Those "old farms" are estates of the rich and famous - There is a rich history wrapped around the men and women who settled along the Hudson River. Statesmen and politicians called the Valley home, including Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose estate at Hyde Park was both his refuge and his final resting place. Several estates in the Mid-Hudson region are connected with various branches of the Livingston family, whose members included war heroes, political figures, and one of the five authors of the Declaration of Independence (who, incidentally, swore in George Washington as the first president of the United States). The Mills and Vanderbilt families were at the center of New York society life at the turn of the last century, their estates redolent with the opulence of the American Renaissance. The Hudson Valley's lush landscapes drew artists to its beauty, inspiring the Hudson River School of Painting. Some of the finest known examples of this artistic movement are on display in Olana, home of Frederick Church. Check this web site: http://www.hudsonriver.com/estates.htm Route 9 from New York north to Castleton-on-Hudson is rich in history going back to the Revolutionary War. Here also, about 10 miles north of Hyde Park, you will find the Old Rhinebeck Airdrome - check out their web site: http://www.oldrhinebeck.org/default.htm Watch a re-enactment of an WWI dog fight, take a ride in a 1929 Standard Bi-plane. While not strickly on this ride, West Point, home of the U S Military Academy, on the west side off 9W is realtively easy to get to - coming north take 202/6 out of Peekskill along the western edge of the New York State Military Reservation and cross the bridge to 9W. I think that's the Bear Mountain Bridge. Go north on 9W for a little over 5 miles to West Point. It's easy to go either north to I-90 and back to U S 9 - or just turn around and go back across the Bear Mountain Bridge. Wherever you go in this region, do NOT expect to make it a day trip. There is so much history and so many things to see here - Oh, I almost forgot Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow. If you linger overnight, beware, you may see the headless horseman!!!!!!

Guest Darlene Petralia Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 What a great response! Yes, it was a bit of an understatement I suppose. In light of time constraints. Olana has been on our "list of things to do" for a long time. Frederic Church is one of my favorite Hudson River artists. Being new at this, I am not sure about what roads qualify as interesting - any off the beaten path, or just cross country roads like Rt 20 and Rt 66 etc. We live in the midst of a ton of history here also: Saratoga Battlefield and Monument, Schuylerville (original Saratoga), Saratoga Flat Track, Lake Champlain - birthplace of the US Navy, Fort Ticonderoga (Last of the Mohicans), Cooperstown, Grant's Cottage, Adirondack Great Camps and many more.

Guest Stephanie Hedgepath Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I will be in the Canton, Ohio starting tomorrow. Are there any scenic areas within easy driving distance that anyone knows about? Any really good antique shops (I'm mostly into traditional/country antiques). Stephanie Stephanie S.

Guest CRuth Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Darlene, Treasures from Olana, some of the Church paintings, is at the Fenimore Art Museum in Cooperstown now - I believe this is the last few weeks of the exhibit but I'm not sure - I saw them in June - spectacular! Also, their Native American Collection, the Thaw Collection, is outstanding. Really a beautiful and exquisite art museum just south of US 20 and Cooperstown is a gem of a small town.

Guest Jim Ross Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Ron, The site of the 1909 Dosie Creek Bridge is on the original, unpaved alignment between Stroud and Davenport. If you have "Oklahoma Route 66," see the map on page 93. Otherwise, traveling eastbound from Davenport, about a mile out of town you will cross Dry Creek. At the top of the next hill the paving curves sharply left; the old dirt road continues straight. Dosie Creek is about a mile down this road. About a mile east of the bridge site is a T-intersection with the Ozark Trail obelisk. From there, several turns on section line roads take you into Stroud. Speaking of the Ozark Trail and their 1918 convention in Miami, one of my most prized road-related artifacts is an authentic lapel pin from the 1916 Ozark Trails convention in Oklahoma City. As we learned from the John's post, the Trails has a fascinating history. I'm not sure if the obelisk at Langston, OK is still there. Guess I should check that out since I'm only about 30 miles from there. Jim R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt Smallwood Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Yeah, you're right Darlene, Skyline wasn't built to easily navigate with large vehicles and/or trailers. That happens when you build a highway on the ridge line of the Shenandoahs. As a matter of fact, commercial trucks can't travel on it at all with the exception of delivery vehicles for the lodges and gas stations, I suppose. I remember braking quite a bit with a small sedan. And unforunately, I haven't been to that part of New York state or PA...only been as far north as Allentown in the Pa mountains. Fortunately, Alex Burr has. Give it up, Alex....lol. He and I are also members of the US 40 Yahoo group....

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Ah, yes, Allentown - been thru there. Sometimes going to, or from, Memphis, I'll take 209 between Milford and Marshalls Creed, PA, then cut off 80 onto 33 to Route 22. Now theres a stretch that will curl your toes - the Easton/Bethlehem/Allantown corridor on 22!!!! Wall to wall traffic going way, way to fast, even tho it's multi-lane!!!!! You don't DRIVE that corridor - you survive!!! Happy traveling.

Guest Denny Gibson Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 The Lincoln Highway ( http://www.lincolnhighwayoh.com ) goes through Canton and the section east of there is quite nice. Near Minerva you can even drive several miles of brick. A couple of official byways, CanalWay & Amish Country, are near by ( http://www.byways.org ). To the south, the historic Zoar settlement is one of several historic sites in the area. The next issue of AR, currently pictured on the group's home page, has an article on the Amish Country Byway, I have some pictures of Zoar and its surroundings at http://www.dennygibson.com/DayTrips/Trip5index.htm, and of the LH around Canton at http://www.dennygibson.com/ohlh0405/day01/index.htm . I can't help you on the antiques. I may be one but I don't know much about shopping for them:-) Denny Gibson Cincinnati, OH www.DennyGibson.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Stephanie Hedgepath [mailto:jimanie@welshcorgi.com] > Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 9:06 AM > To: AMERICAN_ROAD@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [AMERICAN_ROAD] Scenic Areas Near Canton > > I will be in the Canton, Ohio starting tomorrow.

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I forgot to mention - came thru that 22 corridor back in 1988 after my Hudson car club national in York. They were doing construction. 'tis a real thrill to be going thru those concrete road barriers on either side with 18 wheelers in front of you and in back - and everybody is going between 70 and 75. This was around 6am before the work started. If anybody had so much as sneezed there would have been fur, feathers and busted car/truck parts all over the place.

Guest R. Droz Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Suggestion - pick another moderator for the week? Spammers are on constant duty, looking for easy prey. I run US Highways Yahoo group, and have two 'backup' moderators, folks I trust, and a couple more in mind if I lose them. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ushwys/ -- ___________________________________________________________ Happy Motoring! _._._._.____~__ Robert V.

Guest Jim Ross Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Greetings All, To respond to a couple of questions raised about Vol. 1, No. 2: Denny: Yes, the Ohio Scenic Byways insert is universal. Ohio people are special. I thought everyone knew that. ;-) Bliss: Rocinante - I can't answer your question about the V-6. I will refer this to Mr. Brusca and we'll try to publish the question and the response as a letter in #3 or #4. Joe: If you had to read "Don Quixote" in Spanish, I think I speak for many in saying, Better you than me! We greatly appreciate all the feedback. Please send us letters for our Write of Way department. Raise any on-topic issue that you like. All the praise is great, but we would like to see some other comments or hear about your vision for American Road. Send your mail to me at: jross@mockturtlepress.com. Thanks! Jim R.
