Bristol day here in the Valley: low 80s, perfectly clear, a light breeze. We honored the onset of faux-fall by taking in Das Awkscht Fest and sealing the driveway. Both took about two and a half hours, leaving us time for an evening drive.

We opened the roof and put on Van Morrison and explored the vast woods south and west of South Mountain. In the cool air we discovered the geographical oddity of Huff's Church - three miles from everywhere - and the hills and valleys that lead to Fleetwood and Maiden Creek, where we found a DQ that was the western apex of our trip. On the way back we traced very, very bike-able roads through Kutztown and past Topton and back along Mountain Road into Macungie, where the 'Fest had completely vacated the park. We had dinner on the deck and lounged through what was left of the weekend.
