Interstate 91 (I-91) is an Interstate Highway in the New England region of the United States. It provides the primary north–south thoroughfare in the western part of the region. The Interstate generally follows the course of the Connecticut River. Its southern terminus is in New Haven, Connecticut, at Interstate 95. The northern terminus is in the village of Derby Line, Vermont, at the Canadian border. Past the Derby Line–Rock Island Border Crossing, the road continues as Quebec Autoroute 55. I-91 is the longest of three Interstate highways whose entire route is located within the New England states (the other two highways being I-89 and I-93) and is also the only primary (two-digit) Interstate Highway in New England to intersect all five of the other highways that run through the region.

Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania: We are, in no way, a museum exclusively devoted to the Pennsylvania Railroad. We are a museum devoted to telling the rich stories of railroading in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including all its railroads, its support industries and its workers and travelers – past and present.

Washington Memorial Chapel — located on Pennsylvania Route 23 in Valley Forge National Historical Park — is both a national memorial dedicated to General George Washington and an active Episcopal parish in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The church was inspired by a sermon preached by Anglican minister Reverend Dr. W. Herbert Burk, founder and first rector of the parish. The building was designed by architect Milton B. Medary. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 1, 2017, and is undergoing an active restoration campaign. From Wikipedia.

During the 1973 Yom Kippur/Ramadan War both the Soviets and US forces were put on a heighten alert. I decided to skip school and hitch-hiked to Washington Chapel to spend the day praying for peace. I believe(ed) that there is no better place to pray for peace than at the memorial for fallen soldiers.

Canterbury Shaker Village preserves and interprets the legacy of the Shakers, providing a place for learning, reflection, and renewal of the human spirit.

Canterbury Shaker Village actively engages people of all ages, fostering the Shaker values of community, simplicity, and innovation.

The Canterbury Shakers transformed their inheritance into a museum for the benefit of all. Therefore, we have a duty of stewardship. These values are powerful tools for fulfilling that duty.
