Join Anne and I on May 21, 2017 and discover that there is a little bit of Texas in PA.  Wikipedia, with a link to ”the origins of unusual place names”, reported that East Texas was named during the Mexican war (1846-1948) after the state of Texas.  The accepted version of the name claims that laborers clearing a right-of-way for a railroad in the Lehigh Valley congregated in a tavern after work where brawls were frequent.  After one brawl someone said that this is just like Texas.  The name stuck.

This is a nice run through the mountains, forests and valleys that surround the Lehigh valley.  We will even pass a ranch with Texas long horn cattle.  The run will end with lunch at the Texas Road House.

The views are great!  Join us; I think you’ll love it!  Cowboy hats and boots are optional.
