Who knew that Lucy the Elephant was built from pieces of buildings at the Centennial in Philadelphia? Can you think of another roadside attraction made from recycled materials?

In celebration of America’s 250th birthday, we’ve opened a special exhibition in Lucy’s Train Station featuring rare artifacts from 1876 and 1976—two milestone years in American history! 🇺🇸

Every Thursday in July from 11:30 AM–1:30 PM, Lucy’s Collections Manager will be on hand to answer your questions, share the stories behind the artifacts, and reveal fascinating facts about Lucy and her incredible history.

Whether you’re a history buff or a lifelong Lucy fan, this is a special chance to see these fascinating artifacts and discover the stories that bring them to life. ✨🐘

Enjoyed the America250PA special exhibits at Fort Ligonier today.

Some interesting things to ponder.

1) They presented that "Forbes Road" began in Philadelphia and not simply the military trail they blazed in western PA since the supplies had to be transported all the way from the port of Philadelphia? Thoughts?

2) Had walking path marked as "Forbes Road 1758" just west of the fort gate. How close were they to the actual location? Do you think feet, yards or miles away?

3) The two pistols that Lafayette gave Washington are a national treasure worth the price of admission. Do you agree?

Remember that it's 250th anniversary as a nation ALL year long. Don't stop the celebration on July 4th.

Picked up a delicious blueberry lemon scone and iced Chai tea to start the day at Uptown Cafe and Bakery. Highly recommend this new family owned business.

It's just above this original 1928 Lincoln Highway concrete marker that alerts drivers to continue right to stay on Forbes Road. We do not recommend that you try to cross US 30 here to get a close up view of this marker. Traffic is heavy, moving fast and not pedestrian safe. Enjoy these photos to start your day.

Before we leave Bedford County we pulled over at Grand View Point. Another car from Indiana pulled over to admire the view that remains beyond the history of the Ship Hotel.
