2 hours today in "Herclerode", ... & ... the "land of the turtles"
In the early 1730's, German immigrants settled in the area of this park.
On early maps the area was called Herclerode, after the first landowner, The Herclerode house still stands.
a Mr. Meier married Mr. Herclerode's daughter, Catherine, and bought the home and plantation.
The home is located near the Tulpehocken Creek and the town was later known as Tulpehocken Town.
Tulpehocken is a Lenape Indian word which means "land of the turtles". Mr. Meier laid out the streets for his town in 1768.
I met up with nsdq there today, to give him a Rotary Phone & do a little Hunting.

This park is Surprisingly Clean, not allot of Signals.
I did stay in the shade though as much as possible

a Couple cool Hot Wheels made my Happy
and a '43 Merc made my day
