Perry County has 14 Covered Bridges. It takes about 2 hours and 13 minutes to see all of them. That is if you don’t get lost like I always do. It took me so much longer but it was enjoyable except finding Fleisher’s Bridge. I kept going past it and my GPS keep sending me in circles but it is […]

Shikellamy State Park has two different parts to it. The best of both worlds river and mountain views. The bottom part has access to the river, boat rentals, and a hike next to the shoreline.

The Franklin County Jail is a wonderful sight to see. It not only shows the jail but it also includes a lot of the history of the town. Across the street and a few houses down is Mary Ritter’s Boarding House. Before John Brown went to Harpers Ferry to raid it in October 1859, he and his friends stayed at […]
