    Today's Pennsylvania most farms have been turned into industrial parks and residential community's, the trains, Steel, and most other Industry are long gone I watched Bethlehem Steel take its last gasp as the retries had there pension stop 😦. Allentown lost all it's landmark department stores eg: Hess, Harrisburg politicians slowly turn the state into NJ with over regulations, I could go on I have lived in several regions of PA from the Lehigh Valley to Laurel Highlands and northern tier it's not anything like this video today I wish it was 😂😂😂

    What a fascinating look into how history saw my home state. The industry isn't what it once was, of course, but the natural beauty and climate really IS excellent!

    Did you know PA was the only colony that refused to supply and create a militia for common defense, even into the Revolutionary War? It was up to Ben Franklin to come up with a creative work around, thanks to the stubbornness of the Quakers.
