Short, sweet vacation

Because of myriad events in my life this year, an extended far-away vacation was not possible. But a few days away can be just as sweet, don't you think? And so a jaunt to Williamsport was planned, and a pleasant journey it was! And who could resist a "Pottsville Creme" doughnut as we made the trek north:





Almost there!






Our goal -- the historic Peter Herdic Inn, a beautiful restored mansion on Millionaires Row...




A few glimpses of our wonderful inn…





Cool papier-mache carrot created by our artist/innkeeper...

A ghost next door? No, just some covered work project… 



A delightful stop at the Bullfrog Brewery...





 Dinner out...


 




Wonderful mural in town on several buildings...




 

My man… Ringo!


 Don't miss Alabaster coffeeshop!


 


Remember when we still wrote letters??


Anyone remember Grit? Back when it was a newspaper? My parents loved getting it!



Some sites along Millionaires Row...







Sad to say, this business is no longer open...
 





A great trip -- saw lots more than this, but wish we had had more time!!
