We did not get a chance to stop here, but it definitely looks like the kind of place we would enjoy. Any of my readers ever been?

The next few days will feature more pictures from our recent trip to Lancaster. Seen here is the Choo Choo Barn in Strasburg, which holds a large model railroad. I had not been there since I was a small child, but with Justin still new to the area, a visit was obligatory. I loved seeing…

On this Easter Sunday, I will share a pic from a recent trip to the Ephrata Cloister historic site in Pennsylvania, which was once home to a religious community in the 1700’s.
Restaurant Review #245: Bird-in-Hand Bakery and Cafe (Bird-in-Hand, PA)
I’ve been to the Bird-in-Hand Bakery and Cafe many times over the years. I have seen it evolve from a small bake shop into a mini empire located within a very modern but comfortable building.

There is nothing specific I want to draw your attention to in this picture, just a “character shot” of John and Peter’s (and yes, that is a hockey stick up on the wall). For Justin’s birthday last month, I told him to pick any place he wanted for dinner, and he chose this legendary New…

Making Friends at the Revere Tavern
This is one of those posts where I know exactly what I want to say but have to figure out just how to say it. Sometimes an experience can be that awesome. If I did not give the Revere Tavern a 5-star rating in February, I would have done so on this most recent trip…
Restaurant Review #243: Sa La Thai (Lancaster, PA)
After being so impressed by the variety of culture in Lancaster City on our last trip, we wanted to venture more into what the area has to offer. Originally, Justin and I planned on trying a Trinidadian restaurant, but it was a Monday and they were closed. We continued walking around and ended up in…

Citing more than 300 alcohol-related incidents over the last three years, the Chief Ranger has said this ban will keep Sandy Hook…
