2nd Day, Meyersdale to Ohiopyle

This coffee house / diner was really good. We needed to fuel up again.

All smiles and getting ready for our day.

Debi loved this Drug Store. She said we have to come back here after the ride for some Christmas presents. Oh my!

We are starting out and here is a caboose of the Western Maryland RR that gave most of the land and railway access to the trail along this route.

Coming out of our first tunnel. It was rainy off and on throughout the day.

Cheese crackers never tasted so good when you are riding many miles per day. Oh my! :)

The Pinkerton Tunnel had no lights and was kind of spooky, but at least you could see "the light at the end of the tunnel".

So many bridges that were so cool. It put you out over the Casselman River on several occasions.

Stopped for lunch in Confluence at Mitch's which was actually a gas station with a somewhat upscale restaurant attached to it. So good.

So many great scenes of the river along side us.

We finally made it to Ohiopyle. There really wasn't much to do here except for the falls and two restaurants. It seemed like the season had passed.

We made a stop at another bridge over the Casselman River.

What a gorgeous river. We stopped right on the bridge to enjoy the scenery.

The Youghiogheny River was right next to Ohiopyle and was the highlight of the city.

Here are the falls at the Youghiogheny River. They were quite loud, and there several outlooks over the river.

Today's ride: 42 miles (68 km)
Total: 74 miles (119 km)
