Well, we were in PA this month, and wanted to share just a little of our vacation with everyone. We went to see my grandparents, of whom I haven't been to in 15 years...sigh. They have come here, but it was so incredible to go and see where my roots are. SO MANY MADENFORDS!! Who woulda thought (many of them aren't living...but still!!)?? Well, things were probably mostly the same as when I had been there before, but I was taken away with the scenery and ambiance that Porters Township Tower City held. So quaint, so historical, and so like the movies. It was surreal...like a dream I had once that I was re-living now. As a child, I remember the places, but I never paid attention to what was around me as I got there...that was the most amazing part. The "view"...
Well, it was amazing to see my grandparents, and my Aunt. They had it all planned. All the things they wanted us to see....the "Auction," the Amish made furniture store called Hornings, Pottsville...so amazing!!, Hershey, which I had never been to before, the best seafood dinner I have had...maybe EVER!! Thanks Bob...yummmmm!!, and all the scenic driving...I loved that the most I think!! The icing on the cake was when I got to see fireflies!! It was supposed to be too cool for them, but they came out just for me!!
What a wonderful trip...so many memories....!!!
