Pennsylvania

I thought I would post something in Pennsylvania, but I either did not have time or the connection was not working. So now I am in Ohio but I will summarize the Pennsylvania information.

After leaving Hagerstown, MD after midnight last night, I headed about 29 miles on 70 W to stop at the rest area at Pennsylvania 70 W mile marker 171.  It is located near the MD/PA border.  I had 176 range remaining with odometer at 19,886 and 68 degrees at 1am.  I awoke in the morning with the temp at 64 degrees and left for Somerset, PA at 7:53am. My route would be a casual toll free drive on back roads and include a visit with a farmer named Bill and a stop to pay respects at the Flight 93 National Memorial.  (I will add this detailed info to this post later this week)

I arrived in Somerset, PA at 12:40pm with odometer at 19,987 with 74 range remaining and temp at 74 degrees. There I met Benny, who is in the navy and lives in the Washington, DC area (though he is from Texas). He was charging his scarlet Tesla and we both chatted with a professional photographer from Georgia about Tesla. I left at 1:15pm with 180 range to go to Cranberry, PA via a toll free route (remember that Eastward tolls in PA were very high, so I vowed to avoid them Westward!).

I arrived in Cranberry, PA at 4:11pm with odometer at 20,076, range at 103, and temp of 77 degrees. While there it began raining lightly.  I reset my Tesla touchscreen (since I could not get access to the blog) but the charging was done by the time I had finished looking up the route to  Macedonia, Ohio on googlemaps.  So, I departed on another toll free route at 4:55pm with 194 range.  Here I come Ohio!  Frugal Tesla

    1. Ahoy to you, Benny! It was great to meet you in Somersert, PA. Thank you for your service to our country in the Navy. Frugal Tesla

  1. So you didn’t have a visit with your relatives in Pennsylvania again? Did you find the missing item?

    1. No, I did not visit them but did speak with them on the phone. They were busy preparing for an upcoming trip to Montreal. And,no. The item is still missing. Frugal Tesla
