Day 11: Salamanca, NY to Titusville, PA

We started fairly early once again and headed towards PA. The directions from google mpas were weak so we kinda had to put in some work on our own. We were pretty successful and got off to a decent start. Some hills, but we certainly had seen worse. We rolled mightily towards our next border.

We were also having an oddly humorous day and gave each other nicknames. I am Sluga and Greg is Navajo. We're also going with Peaches and Cream, especially if we start lives of crime. Weird stuff on the roads.

We ate lunch at the boomerang cafe. It was alright. Located in Busti, New York. From their we had a dissappointing border crossing- no welcome to pennsylvania sign. It's lame feeling unwelcome. Tough chirp.

Around 5 things went downhill. I got a flat that we had to fix on the side of the road- lame! Then we lost reception so google maps kinda hung us out to dry. Our fortunes improved when we got dinner at pasquales in downtown titusville pa. The woman working behind the counter gave us some delicious strawberry shortcake and ended up buying us dinner. Incredible, we're so lucky. Hit them up if you're ever in northwestern pa. We ended up getting to the oil creek campground after dark. We got a muddy site but oh well. Sleep was nice.

Love
Jason
