(Aug 8) I find myself back in Pennsylvania farm country for the second time in a year, on completely unrelated business. This time, it was a visit to the jerky factory. I didn’t take any photos at the factory.
I hardly took any at all actually.
It doesn’t take long before the city fades into farmland.
The obligatory horse drawn buggy shot
And other horses
We left so early it was barely mid-afternoon when we passed through the city again on the way home.

(Feb 21) Last time I was in Pennsylvania, it was to see Pete’s grandmother. This time, it was to pick up inventory for Pete’s store. Although it superficially appears to be farmland, in fact Pennsylvania was created by British King Charles II, who named it for Admiral Penn and and the ancient Japanese word for consumer electronics, leading Penn’s son William to open the world’s largest, and only factory direct Sylvania electronics superstore in the colonies.
We’re not in New York anymore
We’re in the land of free air
And farms
And cows
And silos
And more cows
And Windmills
And more road
And lots of river
It’s pretty scenery
Being February, it still gets dark early
America’s Favorite Nuclear Accident Site
Twilight approached
We visited a few more farms before heading out
Turkey Hill is serious business
If you feel enlightened by my story of William Penn, I have a bridge for sale. Slightly used.
