1) Drink the weakest cup of "rain forest caramel" coffee you've ever had, while failing to read the Ginsberg poem in your bag
2) Walk up Main Street & pass out from exhaustion on a picnic table in front of a hospital
3) Read the Harper's Index in the cute old small town public library
4) Fall asleep beneath the Harper's Index in the cute old small town public library
5) Eat a fried fish sandwich at the local diner, order a delicious cherry pie, then worry the waitress when you don't finish it.
6) Stumble upon the beautiful Keuka Outlet Trail, walk four miles past two ruins of 19th Century Mills - the first, Milo Mills, has a 30 or 40-ft brick chimney, the second, Seneca Mills, is on a waterfall.
7) Sleep for two hours on a park bench, wake up cold & shivering on the ground.
8) Listen to Episode One of the Anthology of Sacred Music in English on the four mile walk back.
9) Write E-mails & read blogs in the Penn Yan Public Library
10) Make an exquisite tofurkey & German Gouda Sandwich, between two pieces of Wegman's inspired "Marathon Bread", eat this sandwich outside in the rain on a picnic table near the courthouse.
11) Drink a pint of fine Canadian beer at the pub on Main Street while waiting to finally get picked up by the girl who spontaneously stranded you in Penn Yan, NY, for eleven hours.
