Sounds like fun. I went to Ricketts Glen this summer and we hiked the trails and saw the falls. What a beautiful place. We didn’t get to see all of them because we ran out of time. I can’t wait to go back and see all of them.

Sounds like you guys had an excellent day! There are some nice trails right here in Wilkes-Barre as well. Over the weekend I took my two nephews to RiverFront Park to walk on the trails and then onto Kirby Park. The boys loved it and it was a beautiful day!

Sounds like you has a great day with the family. It’s true that you don’t realize the beauty and things to do right around your home, until you discover it.

It sounds like you enjoyed a great weekend with the family. I know when i get the chance to enjoy a relaxing weekend with my family it is nice. My daughter is also very excited when she has mommy and daddy both home at the same time.

One thing about this area that “suddenly” impressed me (just this year) that I never really appreciated is the amount of golf courses and how relatively inexpensive it is to have five hours of fun! Up until this year, I have only golfed at Lehman, Willow Run, Morgan Hills (formerly called Jean’s Run), Arnold’s, and Lake Wright. Then Ron told me about Four Seasons in Exeter. Then I found out about other places such as Applewood (where a deer was about ten feet from me on the first hole), Twin Oaks, Wilkes-Barre Municipal, and Blue Ridge Trail. As the golf season is still in full swing, I look forward to golf at many other places such as Edgewood in the Pines, Pine Hills, Mountain Laurel, Mill Race, Shadowbrook, Eagle Rock, Sugarloaf, and White Birch, where the Warchal family championship will take place in October (and, of course, I take the trophy back from my dad - the defending champion for two years)!

That sounds like a great day with the family. It’s funny how we take for granted some of the great things to do in the local area. I travel often, and yet it’s rare I visit places close to home. Sometimes getting to Scranton seems like an accomplishment and it’s only 20 minutes away! The Poconos is a fabulous place to visit and spend the day. Just recently, we took our niece to the Poconos for the day. We had a nice ride and it was a beautiful day. Following Kathy O’Mara’s outstanding directions, we stopped at Callie’s Preztel Factory, Callie’s Candy Factory, shopped a bit, and stopped for lunch at Melagrano’s. It was a nice trip.
