I live right near Pennhurst and have for 37 years. I remember when it was in full operation and the grounds were as beautiful as Valley Forge (and I am not kidding). It makes me sick to see the spray paint, the vandalism and especially the evidence of setting fires. If you can't go into a place and enjoy just looking around and/or taking pictures without leaving a mark, destroying things, trying to burn the place down or taking something, do us all a favor and stay home. You have all but ruined it for people like me and the others who abide by the rules of respect and now make it nearly impossible to walk around the grounds and buidings by bringing on increased security and the re-closing of the gates. I used to be able to drive through there as an alternate route to town, but not anymore. Thanks alot. By the way, as far as this picture is concerned, who put this sign up, anyway? At least learn how to spell the word resuscitator before pointing out where it is.
