Our first night of our ‘October 2008 Trip’ we spent at Quakerwoods campground near Quakerstown, PA. With construction (not bad) and stops it took us about five hours.
The colors were beautiful all the way down. If you haven’t been ‘leaf- peeping’ yet just the drive down Rt. 81 was gorgeous. Central New York must be ‘peak viewing’. South of Scranton there’s more green mixed in but still really pretty- bright reds, oranges and yellow- golds.
It’s a pretty big campground- but we’re fairly close to the office. We saw the people next to us for a minute when they got into their car to leave and when they came back an hour later. We had a campfire and it seemed like we were the only ones outside. No sound except frogs and traffic in the distance.
Doing dishes this morning I heard a loud Whoot right up above me in the trees. I couldn't see anything. It happened again and again when Bob came out. He found it- there was a huge owl in the tree right next to the campsite. After we both saw him, and stared a few minutes he took off. Really cool.
