I just happened to get lost in the middle of Pennsylvania ...
I couldn't help put stop in this town that was built on opposing hills of a valley .
Nice people, quite atmosphere...It was all very relaxing .
Now that y've painted the place that friendly way, it is the only way I can see it . . looks like they are mighty proud of that church in the middle there, too.

@Ronnie 2¢: Actually there were churches scattered all over the valley, just after I took that shot from up on a ridge the clock struck noon. And then something happened I hadn't heard in years... Church bells, real ones ! First from on church then slowly it became almost like a chorus as the others chimed in. I have to admit, it caught me off guard . The music from each church was just slightly different from the previous ones that were added but similar enough to sound as though they were playing together.
It's like the music was fluid and slowly filling the valley below me. I actually got goose bumps for a moment haha .
It reminded me of my home town when I was growing up all those years ago before they fitted them with electronic sound systems that pumped out the same fake gongs everyday there after.
The photo certainly doesn't do the town justice but I plan to go back with camera in hand to spend the day shooting soon now that spring has sprung .
Thanks for the comment !
