Wow – word gets around quick! Now something I did on a stupid whim is immortalized on someone's blog!

And now we know...if someone ever says "you can't get there from here" we can prove them wrong. And if someone ever asks how long it takes to get from here to there, we can pretty generically say "8 hours"

Thanks, Tony!

Lancaster County, Pennsylvania can provide lots of fun.

Blue Ball to Intercourse is only 9.5 miles:

Going from Blue Ball to Paradise will take you through Intercourse:

To the portuguese readers:

Podemos ir também de "partida" (em Portugal) para "chegada" (no Reino Unido).

Yes, I live in Lancaster, and only here can we tell someone that they have to go through bird in hand and then blue ball to get to intercourse and paradise without cracking a smile.....

That said... it's not true :)
