Mile 600. 500 left. Comfort Inn in Erie, Pennsylvania. The room here comes with a whirlpool bath built for two, and I have now whirlpooled myself into a prune, not that this is a hardship.
Sign in the lobby for the restaurant next door: EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT IS BIKE NIGHT AT THE QUAKER STEAK AND LUBE.
Tomorrow I will stop in Toledo and spend much quality time at the Mac Daddy Mother Ship of antique malls. Calgon take me away.
