PA for reading series, 20-100 ppl, medium room

We have a reading series in a bar and have been using a busted old PA with a buzz and it's time for an upgrade. Looking for recommendations. It's a medium sized room, 2 microphones max, anywhere from 20 - 100 people.

Are there any work horse recommendations?

We don't have much of a budget, so would it be better to buy a lower end new piece, or try and get a higher end one used?

Thanks for any/all thoughts on this.

Looking for recommendations for elderly (former) hikers

I live in Greene County and hike often in the northern Catskills and surrounding areas, but next month my elderly parents are visiting and I'm looking for a recommendation. Although they used to be inveterate climbers and backpackers, one of my parents has a little trouble walking these days. They can do 1/2 to 1 mile on flat or gentle slope.

I want to take them out into the mountains -- they'll love it. Ideally I'd want something not crowded, good for a picnic, scenic, and hike able by my folks. I know that's a bit of a unicorn, but I'm happy to drive a ways for the right spot.

Thanks for any suggestions!
