• Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium- Pittsburgh, PA

    I love visiting zoo’s so I had to check the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium while out this way! In the beginning this was looking like a pretty crappy zoo, honestly. It was about 80 degrees out and a good amount of the animals were not even visible, assuming shading themselves (can’t blame them). However, the further we went we were able to see more animals at least lying around in…

  • Tour-Ed Mine and Museum- Tarentum, PA

    As part of our trip to Pittsburgh we decided to check out the Tour-Ed mine and museum  tour! When arriving you will get a briefing in the “classroom” about some facts about coal mining, showing what they used in the older days versus what they use now. You will then head down about 1/2 mile into the mine in the coal car which you will then get out and do…

Maybe you’re here because you’ve researched some and have read about…

  • Orchards Restaurant (Chambersburg, PA)

    On the way home from vacation, as it was getting into evening, and I was becoming very hungry. After looking up a few places quickly, that were around us, my boyfriend suggested Orchards Restaurant. I can say, I was very happy with the selection chosen. When walking into the restaurant, we did feel a little out of place in our jeans and regular tops, since this is a fancier, classier…

  • My Visit to Dutch Wonderland- The Kingdom for Kids

    This past weekend was a family outing with my three nieces, mother, and my boyfriend, and I can say it was a bunch of fun! When you have three little girls, ages 3, 5, and 6, it can become a headache trying to find something that they can all agree on and be happy with. One idea that came to mind to solve that problem….Dutch Wonderland!!! Back in 1963, Earl Clark,…

  • Black Horse Restaurant (Denver, PA)

    Black Horse Restaurant is one I have been wanting to visit for a while, just because it is so close to my home. One thing deterring me, the price, a little on the upscale side, but for the right food, that is no issue. I decided to give it a try thanks to Groupon! When arriving the place was pretty dead, and this was around 5 P.M., however it seemed…
