September 20, 2021 (day 5)
I followed the Lincoln Highway for much of the day until I went into express mode at Pittsburgh. I spent some time at the Lincoln Highway Experience and even more at the Flight 93 Memorial.

September 19, 2021 (day 4)
I made it to school on time and successfully drove a quartet of Ford Model Ts. By successfully I mean in an open field without hitting anybody. I was then surprised by a closed restaurant and an open museum before ending the day in my own cabin beside the Lincoln Highway.

September 18, 2021 (day 3)
Much of today was spent at the America on Wheels museum with my own personal guide. I finished the day by driving to Hershey and touring The Hershey Story Museum.

September 17, 2021 (day 2)
I had about 400 miles to cover today so I took to the boring expressway after barely 20 miles of interesting National Road/US-40. The day was rescued by a cool restaurant at my destination.

September 16, 2021 (day 1)
Even with a midday start, I had no problem reaching my destination near Zanesville with plenty of light remaining. I even managed to cover a little National Road on the way.

Prelude - September 11, 2021
There has been a Falling Water trip in my Fixed Leads list since sometime before COVID hit although the lead has been anything but fixed for an awfully long time. At first, the problem was that Falling Water tours, like so many other things, just weren't happening. They apparently started up again some time this summer, but by the time I learned that, they were mostly sold out. At some point, I decided to put together a different trip using some of the lodging planned for the Falling Water trip but targeting another Pennsylvania attraction I was interested in. I have organized a trip around the Antique Automobile Club of America Museum in Hershey. Allentown is less than a hundred miles beyond, so I've decided to make my second to the America on Wheels Museum there. Overnights will be at a couple of historic spots combined with a couple of generic chain motels. The "PA Cars" trip name is pretty pitiful but it's the best I've got.
