Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania

We spent several weeks in Pennsylvania near Jerl’s office. It was weird staying in one spot for so long.

We finally saw some amazing weather! I took full advantage of the sun and spent some mornings reading outside.

Yup, that’s a horse! The place next to the RV park had several horses that they rode every day. Watching the horses was one of my favorite things about this park.

We found a great farm that sold raw milk!

They had several different animals that we could walk around and see. Look how big those dairy cows are!!

They sold milk, eggs, yogurt, cheese,

We also found a great meat market. The raise everything they sell.

You could get pretty much anything pickled.

Our favorite thing there was the bacon!

 We got to spend time with some of our friends and their families at an office get together! It was so great seeing everyone!

Over the past year we’ve learned that different states have their foodie thing. In Alaska it was coffee…there were coffee shops everywhere! In New Mexico it was chilies…they even put them in their desserts. Well, in Pennsylvania it’s pizza! Guys…we ate soooo much pizza!!! And it was all from mom and pop places! I’ll leave it up to Littlest to give you all of the tasty details!

We were only about an hour away from Trenton, NJ so we stopped by the New Jersey State Capitol Building on our way to Philly one morning.

Check out that dome!

We didn’t get to look around the inside of the building. You have to be on a guided tour in order to gain access to any of the State Capitol Building rooms, but there were a couple of super nice security guards that walked us to the dome so I could get a picture of it. That was seriously nice of them.
