Allentown, is the largest of the three Pennsylvania cities that make up the Lehigh Valley. Formerly an industrial hub, Allentown is probably most well known as the subject of the eponymous Billy Joel song. The long history of Allentown has left it with an impressive architectural heritage that includes buildings such as the neo-Roman Art Museum, which contains a reconstructed room designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. The city is also home to the Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom amusement park.

This small art museum is a gem with a diverse permanent collection and, currently, several galleries devoted to Who Shot Sports, It’s an all encompassing exhibit of sports photography with early examples from the 19th century and the vast majority from the past 50 or 60 years. Think of a sport, any sport amateur, Olympic or professional, and chances are that there is at least one photograph of it in the exhibit. Horse racing, football, baseball, tennis, gymnastics, etc. plus photos of spectators. See it while you can!

We visited on first Friday of October. Since Covid is keeping visitors away, it wasn't crowded. We were given a tour by Rich Greene. This gentleman had a passion for cars and their history. We learned so much about the first Ford vehicles and Hudsons. We also visited across the street at RB Collections where they restore classic cars. Al R. also provided us with information regarding the work they do restoring vehicles. It was fantastic. If you plan on visiting make sure it's on Wednesday and Friday when Mr. Greene is there. You won't regret it. The museum was great also.

My parents introduced me to the fish hatchery as a little tyke and they continued this tradition by taking my kids there, I love this place. I used to drive my bike there from Emmaus as a teenager to get away from life. If you want to find some solace and/or listen to children's happiness, spend an hour at the fish hatchery. Go to the little house on the east end to pickup some fish food and enjoy the little museum they have, go for a stroll along the Little Lehigh River and the Lehigh Parkway, just sit and enjoy some tranquility. This is the epitome of an "off the beaten path" get away. If you have kids, it's a must.

We attended the Christmas show with another couple. The food was surprisingly good for a dinner theater. The play was also way above expectations. They have a permanent staff of multitalented actors and musicians who arranged familiar songs into medleys and composed a few songs as well. The songs were well paced so as to never be too long and they were well sung and entertaining. We’ll be back again.

We enjoyed our very first American League hockey game between the Lehigh Valley Phantoms and Hershey Bears. Lively atmosphere, clean facility and do much to see and do. Terrific atmosphere and activities & contests throughout the game. Only complaint was the “smoke show” prior to puck drop. Not necessary. But that’s a minor concern. Great value and lots of fun.

Lots of delicious choices - fresh meats, veggies, fruit, nuts, fish, coffees, ice cream, candies, pastries - it’s all here! Some stands have ready to eat prepared meals to eat on site or take out. There’s even a natural doggie treat store! Open Thurs, Fri, and Sat only. Definitely worth the trip! Find your favorite. I suggest Heffelfinger’s coffees and Stolzfus meats. But seriously, soooo many great shops to try! Take your shopping bags!

The Colony Meadery turns honey into delicious alcoholic beverages. With 15-20 meads available at any given time, The Colony has a wide array of flavors and styles, from dry to sweet. Located in an old Mack Truck factory with a brewery and distillery, The Colony Meadery is a great place to learn about a beverage that is both ancient and brand new.
The Colony Meadery is a nice local spot to try some of their award winning meads. I would call it artistry in a bottle. The meads are all exceptional and you can tell that much thought is put in each and every bottle. There is a brewery and a distillery all at the same fun location. You can walk around and mingle at the different places. Fun time and great people.

In June of 2001, I lost my son Joseph shortly after birth. Lehigh Valley hospital had a program where at their expense you have the option of sprinkling your babies ashes there. If you ever notice, back by the one gazebo towards the stream is a plaque in the ground stating here lies my child. Some may feel uncomfortable with my decision, but for me there is no other place i would like to pay my respects to my son Joseph because he lies with beautiful roses, baby birds flying. Very comforting to me to visit him there. The only thing that is missing are the harps playing angel music. So next time you visit or visit for the 1st time know they are angels guiding over of of you. ????????❤
