As we have traveled through the Harrisburg PA area many times we’ve commented that we needed to visit one of these days. Hershey is a legendary chocolate company, a community, and an amusement park. Our personal interest was in the origins of the chocolates that sweetened our childhoods so we visited The Hershey Story Museum to learn how Milton Hershey developed a formula not just for an affordable chocolate for mass consumption but succeeded in selling it to the nation. We shared the experience with an amazing number of other visitors on this Sunday of Labor Day weekend.

OUR VERY

LATEST

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
