The area of travel is influenced > by where friends live. > If you are interested in boats, there is a neat tall ship (reconstructed from about 1812) in Erie, PA (1 hour and 15 minutes north of Pennsic). If you're interested, check the sailing schedule ahead of time - I think it is sailing to Ohio for a week or 2 sometime this summer, or, (if you're lucky) there are occasional day sails that the public can go on. Less than 2 hrs. from Erie is Cleveland where the art museum has a fine medieval collection and also home of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. By taking I-80, you could get back to Pennsic probably in 2 and a half hours. (I'm guessing on that one, as it's been years since I took that route.)
Is this your first Pennsic? Be warned - once you get there, you may not want to leave to go anywhere else! Janet (or Lady Leah Janette) _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
