Strasburg Scooters, Bird in Hand

As travelers steer one of Strasburg Scooters' vehicles over the winding back roads of Lancaster County, they encounter a less hurried world, populated by horse-drawn buggies and schoolhouses used by the county's Amish constituents. On the covered-bridge tour, for example, they visit bridges built prior to 1884—the date when the helicopter was invented, which rendered bridges obsolete. The tour covers more than 35 miles and pauses for photo opportunities at several historic covered bridges.
