Day 34 -- Reading



Today, I ran 5.3 miles, taking me past the exit for Reading. I was surprised to find a Japanese pagoda in Reading, Pennsylvania. I was even more surprised to find out that it wasn't built by a Japanese. It was built in 1908 by Reading quarry owner William Abbot Witman, Sr., apparently because he liked the look. The story of the Pennsylvania Pagoda is on RoadsideAmerica.com.
