randomness..

Cedar Run Inn... Cont.

My last post mentioned that I took the long way home past the Cedar Run Inn today..



Cedar Run, PA.. lies just beside Pine Creek, a few miles southwest of Wellsboro, PA.



I have a special connection to Cedar Run, having traveled to Cedar Run with my paternal grandparents and had spent many summer weekends at their "cabin". It wasnt until today that I realized that my first camping trips were to Cedar Run.



Later in life I would return to Cedar Run several times a month to assist my maternal grandfather deliver goods for his business. I can remember bouncing along in the back of his delivery van all the way to Cedar Run. We would stop only briefly at every bar, sporting goods store, and small market to deliver packages.. Cedar Run was the last stop.. as far north as the economics of his small business would allow.

I had hoped that the Inn would be open for lunch, knowing that my wife would enjoy it.


Just behind the Inn, I noticed a early mopar coupe, and it was obvious its owner would be nearby..

I quickly realized that this 34 plymouth was a hot rod.. the owner soon mentioned that he too had a 40 ford..

Just inside the barn, under cover and currently in "project status" sat a 40 ford coupe. How ironic that we could be 100's of miles from home, in a place I remember only as a child, on a day when our travel plans werent dictated by time or a map and happen upon the very type of car that has directed my entire adult life..

while our visit was brief.. I'll plan to return to Cedar Run soon!
