We have been to both Eastern Grand Canyons these last few weeks. The first visit was in PA at the Leonard Harrison State Park. The second visit was in New Yorks Letchworth State Park. Both something to see in there own right but nothing compared to Arizona's Grand Canyon. After the ride to Letchworths park we took a ride around Lake Keuka one of the Finger Lakes. At the southern end near Hammondsport N.Y. is the Glen Curtiss Museum. He was one of the early pioneers of aviation. Before becoming involved in aviation he built bicycles then motorcycles and was dubbed "The worlds fastest man" in 1907, before being beaten by a man in a airplane later. The motorcycle he rode is on display there. All I can say is 136 M.P.H.. He was a braver man than I'll ever be.This was the only museum that I've ever seen that lets you enter the restoration shop. For all you Cushman lovers out there I added the lineup of Cushmans that were there at the museum. We bought this Venture to tour the country and now can do it {between work}. It now gets 46 MPG and purrs like a kitten.
