Started off by going completely out of my way to go to the gravesite of Hall of Fame baseball pitcher Cy Young. That took me about 90 minutes in a different direction. Then it took me about another 60 minutes to actually find where the gravesite is because it is out in the middle of absolutely nowhere Ohio, in a little town called Peoli.
On the backroads to the cemetery I passes probably 3 or 4 horse and buggies, every single one of the Amish peoples on the buggies smiled & waved each time, that was nice to see.
Cy Young, the Hall of Fame pitcher who shockingly is the person the Cy Young Award is named after. 511 career wins, with 3 no-hitters & 1 perfect game.
I am leaving out of the Hazleton Motor Inn tomorrow morning & heading to Jim Thorpe, Pa to visit the gravesite of one of the all time greatest athletes Jim Thorpe. Then it will be on to the Sleepy Hollow area in New York.
