York...


...Pennsylvania, first capitol of the United States of America, maybe,
the Articles of Confederation, written here..first used that phrase, to be...
..the claim of being the first.  A busy place with significan history too,
so much to learn, so much to see, it would take a week, for me and you.

National companies are headquarted, or work here, Pfaltzgraff, York Barbell,
York Controls, Harley-Davidson, American Hydro there are too many to tell,
but the best known is now missing, have a guess, hey, who can it be?
York Peppermint Pattie, was sold to Hershey.
Top: A 1906 Pullman, six wheels and all, it was driven to San Francisco, before a road was built.
Middle: The most "famous" of York products, or we could argue.
Bottom: The Shoe House, built in the 1940's to help promote a motel, it was recently sold.
