Milford, Pa., the artist's hometown - a bucolic
Colonial-era hamlet along the Delaware River, which has drawn many from the nearby New York metropolitan
area to its beautiful surroundings, quaint charm and Victorian architecture.
Among Milford's most famous residents was Gifford
Pinchot, two-time Pennsylvania governor and father of
American conservation. Two of the buildings
on Pinchot's former estate, Grey Towers - now a National Historic
Landmark - are the subjects of pieces on this page. They

are "Grey Towers," a castle-like structure that was
the Pinchot family's
summer cottage, and "The Bait Box," the small
outbuilding where Pinchot went for solitude and wrote many of
his letters, essays and books.
Other works, like the venerable "Tom Quick Inn,"
a Milford landmark, and the "The Community House," highlight
some of the Pike County seat's charming landmarks.
