THE EXPLORATION OF small towns in the Pocono Mountains may be as simple as riding in a car with two sisters-in-law in a big circuitous route leading from mountain to mountain and up one hilly street and down another.


It may involve pestering the sis-in-law who is driving the car, "Stop! I'd like to ask that guy on the sidewalk there what they do in this town for fun!"




If the driver stubbornly refuses (on numerous occasions) to bring the car to a stop and allow one to get out of the car with one's burst of curiosity, nor even so much as slows for an inquiry through an open window, Reader Dear, it could very well result in a severely restricted exploration of very small towns in the Pocono Mountains!*
