This weeks benches are from Valley Forge Historical Park. Choose your bench then sit back and enjoy the view. The people in the bottom picture chose to sit near Major General Friedrich Wilhelm Baron von Steuben's statue. The bench in the top photo was very simple, but all mine.If you like to see other photos of benches please see Rune's blog for more of "Bench of the week."

What a lovely view from your bench, I expect to see deer at any moment.
They must have needed a large piece of granite to fit Major General Friedrich Wilhelm Baron von Steuben's name on it!
Sunny :)
That is quite a view from that bench! I think you found a gem! Very nicely composed photograph...
Yes I totally agree, a lovely view!
A beautiful and peaceful place!
God bless you

I simply love the first picture; Exactly my kind of bench!
I posted one that could make you smile, on my usual bench blog(benchesonmyway.blogspot.com/)
i just want to sit down and enjoy the view:-)
tell me something: you going to make the reflection weekend? if yes when is starting?
Robert:-)
I can imagine what you could think about there with such beautiful scenery. Well done :)
I like the combination of the two. Perfect for sitting and contemplating history.
great picture..
I love that park...and it's so big! Von Steuben was very important to winning the Revolutionary War.
Nice shots!
Anywhere would do — even a mat in the middle of the field! Beautiful!
A great place to sit awhile to contemplate, or with a pad and pen to write. I can envision all sorts of new stories. A truly wonderful place.
What a great catch! Loved the single bench in the first photo because of the great view it provided while sitting in comfort. Then you show the benches at the historical marker and I loved those too! Glad you are on the look out for benches too. . . I find new ones almost every day or several every week and love collecting them on my blog as well as visiting my friend, malyss in France and her bench blog. She loves benches as much as I do!
Would love to take a few minutes to embrace the nature's beauty and be thankful of Mother Earth.
I like the view from "your" bench, it leads my thoughts away to the horizon...
Thanks for the visit!
I thought that was Valley Forge. It's been years, but your photos brought it all back.
James: That is a greta view,
Any kind of trouble vanishes and seems to be able to find happiness if I can sit on this bench.
A bench of the happiness.
Thank you.
Liked it :)
With the top picture, my dominant thought is to wonder what is behind you.

Simple & beautiful, lovely shot. Thanks.
You're very talented. You manage to give the pictures an air of mystery and life.
That is one of my favorite spots, sitting with the Baron!
Your photos are great! You have a wonderfull blog! It makes me want to take new photos!
that is a very lovely view indeed... I have "my" bench in my favourite park in London where I like to look over the lake..
Love that view!
