After Philly we drove to Easton, PA. For those of you not in the "know", that is where Crayola crayons are made. Years ago, when Ben graduated from the U of U we went on a road trip and went to Easton. They have a fun "museum" of sorts, where you get to use a lot of different Crayola products, learn a little of the history and watch a crayon and marker making demonstration. Henry was only 9 months old at the time and we told ourselves that we would come back someday, when he was older. "Someday" came...9 years later.

Poor William, this is how he spent most of his spring break. He was so good though.

Meet the red crayon
This is "Big Blue." Samuel read about him in school and was so excited when I told him that we were going to Crayola. He would have been so disappointed if he hadn't been able to see "Big Blue." Sadie
was annoyed and wouldn't get in the picture.
After we left Crayola I turned on the GPS and clicked on "custom POI's." Ben downloaded "Offbeat attractions." We went and found some metal dinosaurs and the Just Born (think Peeps) factory. The factory isn't open to tours, so we just stopped and took a picture.
