Day 10

Day 10 I spent most of the day riding in pouring rain and hail in the Catskills. It rained like a bovine urinating on a plane of igneous material most of the day.

I said goodbye to Pete this mornig and headed to Boston. There were no signs to inform me of where things were so I took and off ramp and spent 45 minutes riding around the Boston Ghetto (dumpster to you Eric). Every time I stopped to take a picture a cop would pull up and point to the "No parking or standing" sign so I took some on the fly.
Then I headed west. I tried to find my way to I-70 via I-84 but in the storm I got lost. Finally I was on a Freeway that was headed toward lighter colored sky so I stayed on it and ended up on I-80, which is just fine with me.
Along the way in the storm I kept seeing signs along the freeway with yellow flashing lights. The signs said "Urgent travel information when lights are flashing. Tune to 1640 AM". They should have a reader board for people without a radio. When I got to my hotel I found the Urgent Message was a danger of Flash Floods on the Interstate.
I traveled 544 miles today and stoped at 9:30 when it was too dark to see deer on the shoulder. I am presently in Clearfield Pennsylvania, 120 miles from Ohio..and still having the time of my life.
