Learning a lot

Growing up in Western Pennsylvania, I was sadly ignorant of the history east of the mountains.  Doing research, I have come in contact with quite a few characters that need to be more famous, Conrad Weiser, among them.  I had heard of the Ephrata Cloister, but knew little more.  There is a lot more to Colonial America then was/is covered in the books.  I learn more of the Tulpehocken Valley.  Of Mordecai Lincoln.  Of Shikellamy.

Closing Hunt




 Down near Pope's Creek.  The sun came out later, but a muddy raw day nonetheless.  A season comes to an end.

Would that I am as spry, agile, and sharp at 85.
