road trip: ebensburg, altoona, & hollidaysburg

This is the first long weekend in, well, forever, that we haven't gone away. But we're leaving next weekend for vacation and have so much to do that we opted for a quick little day trip to central PA instead of a weekend away. We stopped in Ebensburg (not much there), Altoona (fairly big for a small town, with a lot of murals), and Hollidaysburg (which is definitely the cutest of the three). It was a longer drive than we thought. And it was hot!

We take our DeLorme Altas & Gazetteer everywhere. It shows a lot of back roads, parks, historical sites, etc. Perfect for little road trips--we have one for PA, WV, and Maine from our trip last year.
