Sabrina,

that looks very interesting since We plan to visit in PA because we are looking into moving to PA or NH or whereever else.. but I need to learn places first and need to find a better health insurance before move because it is important for my son Sean to have one for his treatment and his future if it happen to be remission..

Interesting about that area.. I remember going to Lanchaster long time ago when I was around 15 years old, We went to NY for Niagra fall and Canada, then to Hershey Pa, then stop in Lanchaster on way home. We had so much fun when we were little :) I am glad My Dad took us there..

In my livingroom, it is all Americana with country themes.. I will have to take pictures of it soon. I makes anything is wooded and I would painted them with country red, blue and white. It is pretty..
