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!

Can't give u details Allie, but remember that the NE was in drought much of summer. Recent rains helped but in higher elevations some trees went green to brown. Drive along riverbanks and lakeshores for guarantee color.

Sunday will be beautiful in Bucks County, so we will go for a ride. Where would you go for foliage? After all these years, we have our favorite places, but I am open to suggestions!

Allie, I just confirmed what you wrote below. The part that surprised me was not that PA ranks #5 in tourism, but that Guv Rendell would be able to spend another $5+ million on anything. How much heat will he take for that ?

Governor Rendell has agreed to inject $5,400,000 into the tourism sector. He is doing this because Pennsylvania is the fifth-most visited state in the United States. I did not know that ! But I do know that we get many visitors in the Philadelphia area, where I live, and we will all be happy about this stimulus !

Can't blame you, Darryl. Even the dog turns orange in autumn.

Love the fall color, wish I could be on that side of the country during the next month.

Not nearly as dramatic as the Pennsylvania elk (few things are), but today's walk around a lake in NE PA with my dog made us both pretty happy.

Looking for PA's newest fall attraction? Check out the new Elk Country Visitors Center near Benezette to see the Northeast's largest elk herd in one of the most beautiful fall foliage destinations!

Situated on 245 acres within the heart of Pennsylvania's elk range and within the Elk State Forest, the Elk Country Visitor Center is a premier elk watching and conservation education facility in the Pennsylvania Wilds and the entire Eastern United States.

The Center provides a needed focal point for elk watching tourists coming to the area. State-of-art interpretive and interactive exhibits that inform and educate the public about elk, wildlife conservation and green building design make the facility popular for school field trips and family vacation travelers alike.

Guided and self-guided elk tours are also available throughout the region. Visit

I just read Linda L. Riley's blog on Tripatini about the Battle of Germantown. You must read it! This is an exciting event. When my husband and I attended, they did not have the dog exchange, so now the event is even better!

This is a big weekend for history buffs - the Battle of Germantown is fought again. (we lose -- again) A great annual event even better this year, beer lovers, because it closes with an Oktoberfest at Grumblethorpe. And a cute addition is the dog exchange between Gen. Washington and Gen. Howe.
