The girls are sleeping so I'll write the blog tonight. On day two we had another long drive to eastern Pennsylvania. Here we had stops at Ricketts Glen and Hickory Run State Parks. At Ricketts Glen we did an amazing 4.5 mile loop hike where we saw about 20 waterfalls that ranged anywhere from just a few feet to 90 feet high. If you're ever in this area I highly recommend that you put this on your list. This was a last minute add to our trip but will probably wind up being one of our favorite stops.Hickory Run was a great way to end our day. Here we saw the boulder field, a National Natural Landmark, which is an area about 400' x 1800' in size. No hiking just scrambling over the rock field. With the sun low in the sky and dark clouds on the horizon the lighting made for some amazing photos.
I did discover that I left our tickets to the Statue of Liberty at home but was fortunate to have saved the email with a PDF file attached and was able to reprint them at our hotel tonight.
Easy day tomorrow. Short miles and just a couple quick stops. Might even have some extra time in New York City. Alli is looking forward to the Big Apple, personally I'll be glad to have it behind us, I much prefer the hiking aspect of our trips.
