The Atomic Amish today at The World on Wheels. We visit Amish country in Lancaster and come away with a healthy glow after visiting Three Mile Island. It's all in today's report: http://tinyurl.com/y6jxw5g

Darryl, we buy all our flammable liquids in New York City.

Yeah, I thought Utah was bad until I got to PA.  Luckily, most places we've been to in PA have been close enough so we could make a run to the border for some more liberalized sales.

Yup, that's the olde Quaker heritage. It was worse when I was a kid. My family used to go to Pennsylvania on Sundays, and you could not buy beer in that state on the sabbath, so my father would bring a beer from NY, stick it in the stream by the restaurant where we ate, and then BYOB into the restaurant.

Maybe I should have been more clear. I don't write about it, just a passing comment below, but when we were there, if you wanted to buy beer, you had to go to a distributor who only sold by the case or find a specially licensed bar that could sell (expensive) six packs, or drink in a bar. I guess I'm just venting a little frustration there. Here's some more information on them: Pennsylvania Liquor Laws

Hey, Darryl, is the part about the alcohol laws in a different blog post, or did I just miss it when I read this?

We're heading to the City of Brotherly Love today at The World on Wheels and will be focusing a week on the state with more Byzantine alcohol laws than Utah. Let's start with a trip to Philly: http://tinyurl.com/y7cguwd

On today's Fields of Dreams at The World on Wheels...the most interesting ballpark in baseball. "I don't always go to Pittsburgh but when I do, I go to PNC Park." http://tinyurl.com/2g2xn8n

It's a good thing they're in the City of Brotherly Love because they are the losingest team in baseball. This week's Field of Dreams update at The World on Wheels focuses on Citizens Bank Ballpark in Philadelphia, home of the Phillies: http://tinyurl.com/26c3w99

At The World on Wheels, it's George Washington, Pirates, and Frank Lloyd Wright as our road trip rolls into Steel City, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: http://tinyurl.com/22ufw7q
