Another great Pennsylvania town.

I had always assumed Selinsgrove was the seat of Snyder Co... and I'm pretty sure that's the only PA county seat I would've gotten wrong...

Never been to Middleburg... but I have been to Beavertown and McClure!

I think they should've kept the name Swinefordstettle instead of the super-bland Middleburg (there's a number of other communities named "Middle-something" in Central PA which creates confusion)
