Well, it's Memorial Day weekend. It rained heavily the past few days. I was almost thinking about building an Ark ... and then it finally stopped raining last night.
Today, 5/29/22, was absolutely beautiful! Sunny, warm, and a great day to go to Big Pocono State Park. Hubby and I got there about 10:30 this morning and it was just lovely. Not crowded yet ... but we knew it would be in a few hours. Don't know if any of you have ever been there, but it the top of the mountain that houses CAMELBACK RESORT in the Poconos. Elevation is just shy of 2000 feet and the views are spectacular. From the top you can see parts of 3 states ... New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. There are a few levels were you can pull off and walk trails, take photos, and get something to eat. There are also picnic tables set up where you can sit down and enjoy your own lunches or snacks. Bike riding is also permitted.
It is also a great place for people watching. Today there many out-of-towners. So many different languages, so many different styles of dress, lots of kids. It was fun just watching everyone.
I took some photos today, but not too many. The mountain is GREEN and LUSH, but in the next few months the mountain will absolutely burst with COLORFUL FLOWERS! And BUTTERFLIES! Will have to make a trip back in the Summer.
I've posted some pics you might enjoy!
