Postcard: Rural Pennsylvania

August 9, 2012

This week’s postcard is from my home state, PA! It kind of sums of what I think of when I think of home.

Pennsylvania
A tranquil rural setting with golden fields nestled among rolling hills. This is the Pennsylvania countryside. As was done a century ago, horses still pull machinery up and down the fields of many a Pennsylvanian farm.

Check out the rest of my Postcard Project.

  • It’s lovely and I would love to go there one day! Love the tree covered hills! xxx

      I’m a bit biased, but I definitely recommend visiting! PA has a lot of everything – country, farms, lakes, camping, mountains, but also has two major cities (Pittsburgh and Philadelphia).. lots of history (Gettysburg is a big one and Philly), Hershey Park (roller coasters AND chocolate!) haha!

      And oddly enough, is probably the state most similar to Germany, in my opinion. I think it’s the combination of landscape and the fact that the Amish speak an odd version of German (we call it PA Dutch).. lots of German roots in the area. You’ll have to come back just so you can visit. 😉

  • funny how where your from always is an ideal landscape later in life. i’m surrounded my gorgeous mountains but i find myself missing the midwest 🙂

      Yes! That’s very true for me, because I don’t much like the midwest’s landscape, haha.
