Pennsylvania offers a great variety of scenery, and I did not get to see half of it. The Keystone state has rugged terrain and nice, rolling hills. Wandering around the northeastern part of the state, I rolled into Jim Thorpe, named for the athlete after his wife offered to bury him there. Two adjacent towns, neither happy with their present names, agreed to merge and honor this incredible American Indian athlete. The town also calls itself a "little Switzerland" and gets away with it because of the beautiful mountains surrounding it and the old-european architecture throughout the town.
