I did have one more mini vacation up my sleeve and that was to visit our friend MJ before school started. We've been there before, no surprise, but it amazes me all the things we can discover for the first time even after living there and visiting there so many times. Here are a few more finds if you visit the Hershey area:
The Chuck E. Cheese Deal or No Deal game gives you major tickets if you hit it just right. I later learned that two mothers had to be escorted off the premises after getting into a fight at this Chuck E. Cheese. I bet you that it was this game.
We've been to the Hershey Pantry before, but I thought I would just rub it in to those who have been there. And yes, the pancakes are still as big as your head.
The Crayola Factory in Easton, PA is a worth it trip, although, go when school starts for less of a crowd and tether your children to you, I kept losing mine in little nooks and crannies.
Go to the Purple Cow in the alley behind the Crayola Factory. I had the Hungarian Torte and I have been craving it ever since (dark chocolate with fresh raspberries). Turns out there was a Pez museum in the opposite direction that we missed, so we'll have to visit that next time.
Little Buffalo State Park was a splash.
So was picking up Gretchen's peregrine falcon cake for her early celebration with Mary Jo. (Thanks for the lovely cake and party MJ)
Yup. That is a dead carcass that the falcon is eating. It was perfect for Gretchen who is into peregrine falcons.
Lastly, some good old fashioned theme park fun. You don't have to pay for parking, you can pack a cooler, plenty of shade trees, and you can pay per ride. I love that these things still exist. Welcome to Knoebles.

Thanks once again for loving my children Mary Jo. What a dear friend you are.
