Vacationing in PA
 

The wife and I will be vacationing in early June to celebrate 25 years. {Not too bad of a gal to put up with me that long!} Any how, we are planning on going to Gettysburg, Hershey, Poconos, and a Jeep jamboree in Butler. Sooo for all you PA guys out there, do you have any recommendations of places to go or see? I have been there about 5 years ago with work, but didn't have much time for sight seeing, but it was beautiful country from what I saw. We might be tent camping about every other night at a state park if I can convince her the bears wont get her! Seeing some cubs on our journey would be a bonus! I will quit rambling now, so what do ya say?

Thanks in advance, Dave

Ray Weavers? Has a few Cubs for sale and some to look at. BTW that's a huge understatement.

Lancaster is a nice place to spend a day, plenty of stuff to see and do down that way. I live about 50 minutes from Butler, so you'll be coming right past me on your way there, not much to do in my area except shop for cubs.:biggrin2:

Well you wont have to worry about me buying any of the cubs around you as I wont have a way to get it home since Im in a jeep. Maybe I could have the wife drive it home? Yeah, that's not gonna happen!

While your in Gettysburg, go to the Sunset Ice Cream shop. It's right in the historic area, delicious fresh made ice cream. If your going past State College on your way to Butler, stop in at the Berkey creamery at Penn State. They have the best ice cream (we like ice cream in this house), keaney beany is my favorite and the death by chocolate will put you in chocolate overload.

Nascar will be racing in Pocono June 7. If you've never been to a race, it's not the best track to watch your first race, 2.5 mile track, backstretch is way out there. If your not going, steer clear of the track as traffic will be ridiculous.

Hershey/Lancaster is a nice area, Chocolate World at Hershey Park is free.

I recommend visiting strasburg, they have a great scenic railroad and railroad museum there!

If your around York PA you could probably take a tour of the Harley factory.

I have not done it yet but it's on my bucket list.

You guys are offering a lot of good suggestions, ice cream, chocolate, Nascar, Lancaster. Heck Sam, maybe we could do the Harley tour and you could mark that off your list.

Thanks again

If you like roller coasters they have a place called Dorney Park https://www.dorneypark.com/ that is pretty cool BTDT.

It sounds like Butler was your idea, sounds awesome. Being a Jeeper that's the birthplace, always wanted to go. Please take some pics. I always enjoyed Hershey park and the Poconos, beautiful area but I haven't been in years.
