A walk in the green (state)

Last week-end I went to visit Samantha's family in Dillsburg, Pennsylvania. It was Samantha's birthday and my gift was the coolest t-shirt, because one thing we both really enjoy is coffee :). The geeky t-shirt idea was given to me by this guy who was wearing a black t-shirt that said "No, I will not fix your computer". I really need one of those. My sister was always wondering how come I can't fix a computer, even though I'm a computer scientists. I guess that's a mystery for anybody who's not a comp sci. You have to be a CS graduate to understand :)

Anyway, I must say I was very impressed with just how beautiful the state is. I almost felt like I was traveling in Romania, in Transylvania or in one of its beautiful parts. It was awesome to see so much green, hills with rocks and forests. I really missed that. And again, it was confirmed to me (by contrast) that New Jersey is the garden-of-power-plants state :)

Samantha's parents have this huge awesome house with a very large back yard and a pool. It's like the dream house. All the houses in that town are on grass and surrounded by trees and there's forests all over the place. Plus, there are no sales taxes for clothes! Of course, we went shopping for clothes, and it was so weird to pay the same amount as for grocery on a considerable amount of clothes. In conclusion, I just love Pennsylvania :). It really is one of the prettiest states (it's the prettiest among the three states that I've seen so far: NJ, NY and itself).
