There's no place like home. Founded in 1889 and the home of the Paoli Massacre, the biggest events in Malvern every year are still the Memorial Day Parade and the famed Malvern Fair sponsored by the Fire Company in July. With only one stop light and one bar in town, Malvern is small-town America to the core.
Old Glory flying on folks front porches is a familiar site year round.
Taken from the abandonded lot across the street from my house in the Borough. The house was knocked down after it was discovered the house was built upon a sink hole.
An old spring on Grubb Road in Willistown on the edge of the farm owned by the Campbell's Soup heirs.
Two praying angels represent the importance of religion in a small borough of only 1.2 miles. Within the boundaries are 4 churches.
15% percent of the roughly 3,000 residents are over the age of 65. With everything within walking distance the town is easy for it's older citizens to navigate.
An old swing sits rusting from years of neglect.
White Manor Country Club, located in Willistown is one of 3 golf courses located within only a couple miles of Malvern.
Frozen water in a Christmas cup.
View of the farmland that is located within a five minutes drive of downtown Malvern. This is Willistown, which is filled with rolling hills and animals such as geese, cows, donkeys, llamas and peacocks.
The Paoli Massacre occured in Malvern during the Revolutionary War. This is a view looking east towards First Avenue.
Rocking chair with no one to rock. Abandonded lot in the middle of town is a sore spot among Borough residents.
Someone left this glove on a table and never returned. They let the property, which could have been a beautiful garden, become overgrown.
"Remember Paoli!!" was an early American Revolutionary call used to motivate troops against the British, who ambushed the soldiers sleeping under the command of Gen. Anthony Wayne.
I don't think too many of the items in this bin can be recycled together.
