Lewistown, PA - April 13, 2007


Downtown Lewistown
Lewistown, where I was working, and State College, where I stayed at the hotel, are part of the Pennsylvania Valleys of the Susquehanna region. According to a local web site, "The stretches of farmland in central Pennsylvania begin in the foothills of the Endless Mountains and roll gently southward to meet the Southern Alleghenies. A region of covered bridges, rail trails, and riverboat cruises, the Valleys of the Susquehanna is for romance and adventure." http://www.explorepahistory.com/regions_susquehanna.php
Lewistown is near Lancaster county - Amish country - but it was too early in the season for the Amish markets to open. Maybe I'll get back to this area in the summer. It's a region of small towns, farmlands, and incredible United States history.
