Along the Lincoln Highway

Rather than take the dreaded Pennsylvania Turnpike into Ohio, we decided to stay on Route 30 when we stopped in Breezewood. I'm glad we did!

In addition to MUCH less traffic and construction, Route 30 -- also known as the Lincoln Highway -- is a scenic drive through the Alleghney Mountains and the Laurel Highlands. We needed several days, rather than several hours on a Friday afternoon, to do the drive justice.

We had enough time, however, to pull off at several sites along the way.

Our first stop was at The Old Log Church in Schellsburg. Built in 1806, the church is surrounded by a Revolutionary War-era cemetary.

As we wandered among the headstones, we snapped a few shots, including one of Shawn indulging his inner preacher!
