The Home of Hershey - Hershey, Pennsylvania


I'm quit sure when Milton Hershey was experimenting with chocolate, trying to get just the right combination for the now-famous Hershey bars, he never envisioned the advertising mecca that would result. I had a great time with my grandson at the Hersey compound. We road the trolley train around town and stopped to let aboard none other than Santa Claus himself. Old Santa gave each child a special tree ornament and the whole train full of people sang Christmas carols. We saw the street lights, shaped like Hershey kisses (wrapped and unwrapped!), the Hershey boys home & school, and of course, a multitude of "gift shops." The weather was superb for a late November day. The combination of grandson, fresh air, sunshine and chocolate was awesome.
