Enjoying & Exploring | part one: Hershey, PA


In every place I've lived we've always explored and known our area. It's fun to travel and vacation, but the majority of life is spent near home. Growing up in New Hampshire we took in so much of the beauty there. We loved regular visits to Boston, Maine and spots all over the beautiful granite state. When we were in DC for a year it was the same. We took in that area and loved every bit of it. Just simple days - together as a family, grabbing something to eat, spending most of the day in the car and seeing somewhere new - enjoying what was near to us. Not trying to get all cliche here - but it's so easy to forget the beauty, fun, history and places to explore just outside our doorsteps. We're in a great area to do this together! We're compiling a list of all the must see restaurants, historic sites and fun places we want to see in the Phialdelphia/Delaware/Lancaster/Lehigh Valley etc. areas. (if anyone has any suggestions/must-sees please send them our way!) 


To start off our list we spent Memorial day driving up to Hershey, Pa to lunch and tour Troegs Brewing Company - somewhere we've been talking about visiting for awhile. After which we took a quick stop at Chocolate World to get some dessert. I'd been to Hershey once before but didn't remember how much of a pretty little town it is. And to note, actually smells like chocolate. We had a very enjoyable afternoon at the brewery and did not regret our stop after for the most excellent reeses peanut butter cup sundae i've had. Here's some pictures from our afternoon. :)
