This is the unforgiving spot where George Washington's weary troops passed the brutal winter of 1777-78.

Our Scout troop toured the encampment utilizing a Bluetooth speaker and the audio tour. It was a wealth of information over and above what our leaders were able to convey to the scouts. Two of them are history teachers and the audio tour was accurate to a tee it was a wonderful addition to our trip.

This is a great working farm to bring the family. They have fresh milk and milk products along with many other items available in the store. They also have seasonal plants and food for sale. It is fun to visit the animals while you are there. They also have a great Halloween display with hay rides, mazes, etc.

My 2 daughters shared this amazing experience with me to celebrate my birthday. The sunset flight over the countryside was absolutely breathtaking!
The team members crewing our flight were professional, warm, friendly and delightful. The entire process was fascinating to watch. Owner and pilot, Vince’s impeccable expertise and attention to weather conditions and safety was admirable, and conversation was fun and enlightening.
Peaceful and serene to the max!
Tres magnifique! La vie est tellement bonne !
Merci beaucoup, Vince!
4. Upper Schuylkill Valley Park

I took my daughter here for the first time for the "By the light of the Moon" event listed in the Montgomery County calendar of events. This is a little gem in Montgomery County. The event was quite a bit of fun. They have a number of animals and birds, which range from common farm animals to wolves, deer, hawks, owls, amphibians, reptiles, etc. The staff are very knowledgeable about the animals and it is evident that have close bonds with them as well.
This is a great place for the family to visit for a couple hours and would absolutely be great for little kids. The park is just big enough that it will keep the little ones from loosing interest and getting too cranky.
I would recommend visiting the park with the kids as it's close, family friendly and affordable.

Christmas season is a great time to visit Pennypacker Mills. Beautifully decorated along with a whole house filled with the belongings of Samuel Pennypacker and his family. We had a docent who shared her knowledge of the home and the family and she was so informative and interesting, you could just picture them living here. The grounds are beautiful and we will be back to see it again in the spring.

First time at Painting with A Twist. I have heard of similar concepts in Tampa, Florida. The area where we painted was small and tight; not a lot of room to move around. Company brought in wine, bottled water, fruit and cheese. The instructor was extremely friendly and a lot of fun. After painting, there was a bigger room in the back and we took some group photos. It was a one time thing for me.

We went into the store to see what they had to offer and for almost $20, I got about a half pound of candy. I'm not sure if they make the candy there or not but I just thought it was too much. Even the rack of cards were expensive.
8. American Treasure Tour

I cannot really describe this place nor do the photos tell the whole story. This is a working museum of collectibles from circuses and antique animatronics, nickelodeons, antique cars, dolls, player pianos, music boxes - well, you get the idea. These displays showcase the 60-year collecting hobby of someone who remains unidentified. How he did it is beyond me but he has surely traveled all over the USA and has millions of dollars stashed away somewhere. Regardless of what interests you it's probably been collected and placed on display. I was blown away by the number of items that WORK! See and hear the most astonishing collection of working player pianos I have ever seen. Also, the kinds of mechanical music machines to be seen at old sideshows in circuses. check the website (americantreasuretour.com) for times when they are open and for prices. I expressed astonishment at the technical knowledge obviously present to get all these machines working and repaired. The tour guides are pleasant, funny, and knowledgeable. Something for all ages and if your as old as me see how many items you remember as a kid!

Everything about this place is great. They run on time, their website is easy to navigate, the staff is wonderful (shout to Dan for being an awesome guide!) and the rooms are incredibly well designed. My friends and I had a blast in both the Revolution Spies and The Lab rooms. Thanks for giving us a great first and second escape room experience!!

A physical adventure game in which players solve a series of puzzles and riddles using clues, hints and strategy to complete the objectives at hand. Set in a variety of fictional locations, players are given one hour to unveil the secret plot. Escape rooms are great activities for families, friends, students, and even businesses because they rely on team building exercises.

Played 1 of 3 of the 3 rooms they have. Outbreak was a great time, we barely escaped with less than 2 minutes to go. Very challenging, and addictive - I will be back to play the other escape rooms.
