Day 11
Again we hit it early today, finishing a second visit to the Falls after lunch and driving south to Buffalo. We toured the Martin House, a Frank Lloyd Wright design from the 1930's that had fallen into disrepair from 30 years of neglect and was in the final stages of its renovation. The house was amazing and Wright's knowledge of architecture and people's perceptions is absolutely staggering. Leaving Buffalo, we drove our first long section of highways from Erie, PA to Concord, OH. The Pennsylvania country east of Erie was very beautiful wine country, a region we were not aware PA had. From Erie through Ohio was nothing special and the highway made the boredom fly by.
Arriving at Tim's (Kirby's uncle), we accidentally went to the wrong door where our youth broke up the monotonous routine of an elderly couple that were very happy to give us directions. We hadn't seen Tim in a few months and making it to his house was much needed and welcomed. We ran some miles on an old train bed where I added on an interval workout and chased a few deer.
Tim graciously treated us to an excellent meal at Outback Steakhouse and our bodies welcomed the new found protein.
