Lawton, Penna.

Just a hick town outside of Montrose, I often find myself wandering through to find my way back to New York. PA 706 is slow, but it's fun to wander through those small towns on back roads of Pennsylvania. Gas station is new, in support of the fracking business, although the ball fields complete with burn barrels (NOT JUST FOR GUN CLUBS!), have been there a long time. It's called self-reliance.
