I absolutely love the George Rose farm, despite my inability to get close enough for a good quality photo :-). Here we see not only the beautiful fieldstone farmhouse and some outbuildings but also the 110TH Pennsylvania monument and the little stone bridge which traverses DeTrobriand Avenue. I’ve always wanted to visit the farm but don’t want to trespass . . . if there’s any (legal) way an average Joe tourist can get close enough for a decent photo without needing express permission, please let me know in the comments!
