4.13.07: York Walking Tour
Weather: Partly sunny, mid-60s
The Coleman Center is our project sponsor
Our new home is the old Bank of York. We were told that the walls are so thick that we wouldn’t be able to hear the rumble of the trains roll by. Not so. About every four hours, a freight train howls, dings and barges through this humble crossroads. During our first night, was difficult to tell our location in relation to the tracks from the sound alone. When we woke the next day, we saw that they are spitting distance from our front door.

We took a self-guided walking tour of downtown York to distribute our calling card to local businesses.
