Happy Saturday, Gretna friends!

The Fall issue of Mount Gretna Magazine has been out for two weeks—we hope you’re enjoying it!

This season’s Spot the Gretna Cousin is a fun challenge for all ages. Each issue, we feature twelve photos—eleven from Mount Gretna and one from a “cousin” location that looks like it could be here.

🍂 This issue’s theme: Cottage Signs.
Gretna is full of one-of-a-kind charm, but even unique places have cousins. One of these signs isn’t from here… can you tell which?

🕵️‍♀️ How to Play:
1️⃣ Study the page below.
2️⃣ Guess which photo is our out-of-town cousin.
3️⃣ Submit your answer via the contact form at MountGretnaMagazine.org

The correct answer—and the name of the first person to spot it—will be revealed on our Stories blog in late October. Be sure to subscribe while you’re there so you don’t miss the reveal!
