Pictures
But not from today, cause I forgot to take the camera. The pictures are from the house-hunting trip last summer, but the places are the same.
First, we went to beautiful Victorian Bellefonte, the county seat. The following two pictures are of the Big Spring, the major water supply here.
We put an offer on a house in Bellefonte, and I wish it had worked out (the people selling wanted to sell the house, then live in it until they built another). Here are a couple of shots from the back yard of the house we wanted to buy:

Just beautiful but then I enjoyed Pollyanna. My neck of the woods is too new to have much Victorian architecture.
