state bird: traffic cone

welcome to the keystone state :) i just collect and hoard stuff that reminds me of home. Terfs, racists, nazis & the like will be blocked on sight.

Erie to Philly, Washington to Scranton, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Johnstown, Allentown and all three Frogtowns, 124 state parks, every town I forgot to mention, and every other inch besides that. Yes... even Breezewood.

Tagline comes from this. Profile picture comes from this. And the banner is beautiful East Conemaugh, PA, photographed by Mark Hedlund for the Encyclopedia of Forlorn Places, which is a website which doesn't exist anymore.

Asks & submissions are open.

Read below the cut for content warnings, details about my tagging system, and a map of Pennsylvania counties.

Housekeeping posts like this one will usually be tagged #chitchat n'at.

Posts are tagged by type (e.g. photography, architecture, wildlife, and/or traditional art) and location, with tags for the town and county where possible. Try searching for your hometown- if nothing comes up, send me a request. Or, better yet, submit something!

This blog posts and reblogs lots of urban decay, towns and buildings in decline, and moody/eerie landscapes. I'll do my best to tag common triggers with the format #tw [warning here]. If I miss something, or if you'd like me to add warnings on something in particular, let me know.

And now, a map of Pennsylvania.

Went to Ricketts Glen today!

Today was a little gloomy, but here's some photos from one of my favorite places, Knobels. I truly prefer this amusement park over any other. It's free to enter and park. You pretty much only pay for what you want to ride, whether you use tickets or an all day pass. People say they get bored because nothing really changes, however I like that. I could ride my favorite rides hundreds of times or visit the museums and still not be bored. Plus the food is great.

The parks celebrating 100 years!!
