Lancaster County PA Realty Check: October 2008

Das Awkshfescht (August Festival) is an annual festival held in Macungie, PA.  As we go into Autumn in Pennsylvania, it's nice to recall some of the pleasant memories of the late summer!

             This is one of the larger antique and classic automobile shows in eastern Pennsylvania.

                                                         Plenty of Corvettes.

                              General Motors area - featuring a 1952 Oldsmobile.

                                             Airplane-nosed 1950 Studebaker.

                                                                Senior autos.

                                      1952(?) Chevy with running lights and sun visor.

The oldest antique automobiles are shown above.  There was also an antique toy show, music by live bands, a craft show, and plenty of good carnival food.  Buses are available to transport visitors from one area to another.

Someone had forged a path through the corn (No, it wasn't the locally famous "Amazing Maize Maze"!)

                                               Marty, Peggy, Mary and Karen...

The ninetieth Ephrata PA Fair is now history.  The weather threatened to rain on several days' worth of events, but in the final analysis, everything turned out all right.

                The younger children were excited to ride on an old fashioned merry-go round!

                     Forget healthy eating!  County and state fair season only comes once a year!

                                             Neon from the rides lights up the night.

Friday night we were treated to a trip down memory lane.  Flamin' Dick and the Hot Rods rocked the town with Rock & Roll hits from the '50s and '60s.
