Ephrata Cloister - Ephrata, PA
October 25, 2009
Stan and I drove the few hours up to Ephrata, PA and visited the Ephrata Cloister which is a religious historical site. The community was established in 1732 by Johann Conrad Beissel. The last surviving resident of the community, Marie Kachel Bucher, died in 2008 at the age of 98. While during its peak, the Cloister grew to 250 acres, the historical site today is approximately 28 acres, comprised of various buildings. The Ephrata Cloister is a National Historic Landmark. If you want some great food in Ephrata, definitely visit Lily's on Main Street.
P.S. - Today was my second anniversary with the D80. I still love it and I'm still learning it!
