Local trivia

Standard

I was just looking at the State College page on Wikipedia to see where we may go on Saturday. I definitely want to see the downtown area. Anyway, we can’t miss ‘The Berkey Creamery’
the college’s famous ice cream parlor where the likes of President Bill Clinton and Martha Stewart have enjoyed a scoop of ice cream. They don’t allow you to have two scoops of different flavors-a rule-they let Clinton have two when he was President, but not when he left office. The trivia part is that Ben and Jerry, yes those guys, took a correspondence course from Penn State on what else-ice cream making. Think that was a wise decision!
Dr. Oz, from Oprah’s Show and now to have his own show in the fall, went to Tower Hill School in Wilmington, DE near where we were on Saturday (see the photo of the tower). He also went to the University of PA. Sean was looking up info about him and ran across these facts.
I don’t have a ton to pack. I didn’t sleep well-again-3rd night this week-it’s lady related. What a pain when you have stuff to do for a trip. I’m sure I’ll be fine.

    Just got caught up with your last few posts I had missed. First of all, congratulations to Sean on finishing his college course…you have every right to be so proud of him!! No doubt he loves his new cell phone as well:-) Have fun at the graduation and hopefully you’ll get a chance to visit the places you found!! xoxo
