Pennsylvania

One of America's most historic states, it ranges from the urban flair (and grit) of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh to the bucolic beauties of the Poconos, Dutch Country, and Bucks County. And for history, don't you dare miss Philly and Gettysburg!

Teddy Roosevelt (or maybe his doppelganger) visits his pal Gifford Pinchot, founder of the U.S. Forestry Service, tomorrow, April 25th, from 4:30-7 p.m., at Pinchot's idiosyncratic chateau, Grey Towers, in Milford, PA. They'll talk, but they will not drink; T.R. knew that Pinchot, despite his many virtues, was a teetotaler. http://bit.ly/b6Vgw7

Amish farms, nuclear disaster sites, and an accessible steam train ride through the countryside. It's all in part 2 of our Pennsylvania Trip Report on The World on Wheels. http://tinyurl.com/y6jxw5g

Free admission to national parks Saturday through April 25th. All told, there are 392 national parks; Pennsylvania has 29 of 'em. http://bit.ly/pSKZC

Quiz: Wednesday is opening day--and the 100th birthday--of the 27-hole A.W. Tillinghast course on the Delaware River at Shawnee, Pennsylvania. Beautiful layout, what with most of it being on an island right in the river (and within Delaware Water Gap National Park, no less). It's also one of only two Tillinghast courses in the U.S. open to the public, so... Where's the other one? http://bit.ly/8ZYxZj

The curator has now been camping out for 13 days in the snow using only Civil War-era gear. Have any of you been following this? And does he do a press conference when it's over, or does he go home and collapse in the bathtub? http://bit.ly/bXlduW

Just one question about the curator of the National Civil War Museum, in Harrisburg:
Will he survive?

EagleFest this weekend. FYI, the Eagle Institute doesn't guarantee in writing that you'll see eagles on E.I.'s tours, but I do. Big Bird loves the New York - Pennsylvania banks of the Upper Delaware River, and E.I.'s guides are (you should pardon the expression) eagle-eyed. http://www.eagleinstitute.org/

Pennsylvania tip: National Gallery of Art musicians come to Milford (Pike County) to offer a holiday concert Saturday, Dec. 19, at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church. Since Milford is near that nexus of New Jersey and Port Jervis, New York, the concert is for that whole tri-state region. http://pikecountypress.com/wordpress/2009/11/25/classical-christmas...

Pittsburgh: From grime to glam

PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- Just 10 years ago, you couldn't mention the words "posh" and "Pittsburgh" in the same sentence without a collective laugh. Not anymore. Keep reading...
