5. Ride the Firefly Express in Kutztown (https://www.allentownandauburnrailroad.com)
This sounds like the cutest event ever, and I was instantly jealous that we're going to be away this weekend when I read about it. Take an evening train ride on the Allentown and Auburn Railroad through Kutztown. Watch the fireflies emerge over the countryside. The train ride includes a stop for ice cream too!
