We spent a little more time than we had anticipated in Shanksville ... And wouldn't miss a minute.
But we also wouldn't miss meeting the guys in Hollidaysburg. Trooper Chris Patrick had extended the invitation to us before and we were finally able to make this one happen ... No matter how brief.
It was another really hot day during the Memorial Day period that found us in Hollidays. We were still adjusting to the temperature changes, and here they were in suits and ties and uniforms with boxes of shirts and more, so we figured we could take the heat, too.
The entire visit took place right out in front of the courthouse. What a pretty town. There is a quaintness, a feeling of generational family living that harkened back to days long gone. It was the kind of place you thought about raising a young family.
And the people were friendly as well. We'd have to say that overall, this was a stop we would love to try again, and spend more time exploring the local sites.
Thank you Chris, and all, this was a really warm (Okay, hot ... lol) visit. We appreciate your tolerance of our late arrival, and your welcome.
Hope to see you in the future!
