This post brought to you by PA Tourism. All opinions are 100% mine. I love living in Northwestern Pennsylvania! Of course, I like to complain about the cold winters and the hot summers but for the most part this area is one of the greatest ones to live in. Along with many natural and historic […]

Living in Pennsylvania, we see some interesting homemade contraptions. Hubby snapped a photo of this lovely piece of work while picking up lumber from Lowe’s today.
