Pennsylvania April 8, 2011




Pennsylvania is gorgeous. The rolling hills with tons of trees and farms covering the land, beautiful farm houses with huge red barns, and the incredible covered bridges!! I would have loved to just drive around looking at the land.

We stayed in Harrisburg and then drove from Hershey across the countryside to Columbia. We drove through Omish country and saw a man plowing fields with huge work horses pulling a plow. There were tons of quilt shops that I would have loved to go through. It was fun seeing it all.

We spent the afternoon in Columbia at the Watch and Clock Museum. Steve was in heaven. He LOVES watches and clocks. I did't think we would ever get him out of there. It was fun to see and the one clock stood 11 feet high and took 20 years to make. A man showed us all the different things it did when it struck the hour. The boys loved that clock!

As we drove from Pennsylvania to New York it was cold and rainy. When we got almost to New York there was snow by the sides of the road. Christopher was so excited that we had to pull over to the side of the road and he and Riley had a snow ball fight!
