If you want to get away from the crowds for a little while, you might cruise by one of the finest small colleges in America - Dickinson College in Carlisle. It goes back to Revolutionary War days. The Army War College is in Carlisle as well, but with the terrorism issues, it's probably not as accessible to visitors as it once was.
