(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.

shooting out of a moving vehicle sucks
I hardly took any at all actually.

i see stars
It doesn’t take long before the city fades into farmland.

cliché
The obligatory horse drawn buggy shot

i see the photo taker!
And other horses

das city
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.

It’s pretty scenery

Being February, it still gets dark early

the farmer thought I was a strange city person
We visited a few more farms before heading out

If you feel enlightened by my story of William Penn, I have a bridge for sale. Slightly used.
