Pennsylvania delivers factory tours, giant everyday objects, and a town that’s been on fire for 60+ years. Some of these we’ve visited, others are still on our list. When we’ve been somewhere, the link takes you to our photo page with details and snark. Otherwise, you’ll head to their official site (assuming one exists—sometimes that’s half the adventure).
