> Confirm I-80.
> We'll make enough stops to avoid getting stiff or uncomfortable - stop for a few minutes every two hours or so to shake out our legs or make a bathroom break. Since we're starting so early, we have plenty of time to reach Delaware by tonight.
>You decide to continue following I-80. Soon you pass through Youngstown, and then into Pennsylvania. You feel the weight on your soul lift as you pass into a state that seems to have a decent number of trees. It's still kind of depressing, but it doesn't feel quite like learning about a miscarriage from a friend who was so excited to be a mother just the day before.
>Traffic is fairly heavy, and the state highway patrol is pretty thick out here. Conversely, there are few places to stop save for official rest stops, which are so much less sad than the service centre from last night. The land grows mountainous quickly, as you enter the Appalachians. It's honestly quite pretty. and does good for you soul after the cornfields and miasma of the prior two states. You start to see signs for the Great Alleghany State Forest. Then, later, the Moshannon State Forest.
>You stop at a fairly empty rest stop to use the bathroom and stretch your legs a bit. After finishing the former, you emerge to find Archer leaning against the car, staring at the sky. "Hey," she says, and points upward. "See that hawk up there? It's been following us for the past fifteen minutes, and hasn't flapped its wings once."
