Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania

    Here we are at Pennsylvania also known as the Keystone State, because it is the middle of the thirteen colonies. In case you didn’t know, the fifteenth President, James Buchanan, was born there! Also, the Liberty Bell is in Pennsylvania right at this minute! That is one old bell. Did you know that Pennsylvania actually means Penn’s Woods because it was founded by William Penn? Then after that, here is some more history for you. Ben Franklin was born there and supported Pennsylvania in the very first courthouse.  Pennsylvania has some fascinating history, don’t you think?
    Now that we are done with telling you all the history that makes you smart, now it is time for you to go and see their exquisite mountain views and hiking trails. If you want to know what people in Pennsylvania do in nature, well, you have come to the right place. They love to take nature walks, go camping and hiking, and they love to ski.  The outdoor scenery of Pennsylvania is breath-taking!
    This is some things they are known for. We found out that they have a Hershey Park and Ski Resorts! Okay, enough talk about Hershey chocolate, because it is making me jealous. Would you like to know what Pennsylvania does in their spare time? They like to play basketball, four square, soccer, and “by bally,” they play volleyball! That is all for Pennsylvania, because we have all kinds of other states to pen.
