Come and enjoy the beautiful Laurel Highlands in their Fall color; visit Fort Ligonier (http://fortligonier.org/) where George Washington was once stationed;  eat lunch at a Victorian mansion in historic Ligonier.

We will tour the Fort and visit the galleries and exhibits in the museum (Cost: Adults $8.00, children 5 and under Free). We will then go to lunch at the Ligonier Tavern (http://www.ligoniertavern.com/) which serves soups, salads, sandwiches and regular entrees.
