- Scooter and his boys got as close as they could. Got there at about 16:30 because of traffic on I-81. We first stopped on the side of the road (where we took the pictures), but then sought the other side of the trees. There we met a nice lady planting tomatoes in her garden. After doing my best to convince her that we were not selling anything or trying to convert her religious beliefs I showed her a couple pages I printed from the wiki. She kindly sent us on our way with a "have fun."
