The Hershey Story

2017 New England, Pennsylvania, Road Trip

As we have traveled through the Harrisburg PA area many times we’ve commented that we needed to visit one of these days. Hershey is a legendary chocolate company, a community, and an amusement park. Our personal interest was in the origins of the chocolates that sweetened our childhoods so we visited The Hershey Story Museum to learn how Milton Hershey developed a formula not just for an affordable chocolate for mass consumption but succeeded in selling it to the nation. We shared the experience with an amazing number of other visitors on this Sunday of Labor Day weekend.

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
