August 30th
Foggy and warm in the morning. Spent the day relaxing,catching up on journal and doing blog.
We went to the office to use the internet. Nice area with lots of trees,birds,chipmunks,mini golf and pool. We went for a swim in the afternoon. We went over to Jennifer's in the evening. They have a lovely place about a mile from Bushkill Falls. A mother and 3 baby white tail deer were in the meadow near their pond. Just got back in time to our campsite--a big lightning,thunder and rain storm. A skunk got into our garbage during the night.

Happy Anniversary Jean and Graham. Cooler in the morning now but a hot afternoon 27 Deg. C. We went on the Delaware Water Gap Trolley and toured famous houses (Jackie Gleason etc.),
Delaware River and the Pocono Mountains. Afterwards we drove to Bushkill Falls. A boardwalk and many steps(500)took us to the eight waterfalls and gorge. Beautiful area. Our legs were very tired.We relaxed in the evening around a campfire.
September 1st
We had breakfast at the KOA Pavillion. We drove about 15 minutes down the road to Shawnee Waterslide and Amusement Park. Lots of people were at the Pocono Garlic Festival. We spent a couple of hours browsing around the booths with everything garlic and listening to music at the 3 band stages. Enjoyable and hot afternoon. We invited Jennifer,Steve and Aidan for dinner and had a good visit until 10 pm. After they left we had a campfire.
September 2nd
We went to the huge Pocono Flea Market. Too hot and crowded. Jennifer,Steve and Aidan picked us up at 2 pm and drove us around to see the area. We drove to Hackettstown,New Jersey to meet Steve's parents. They baby-sat Aidan while the 4 of us went to dinner at Red Lobster----great lobster,scallops and shrimp. We got back to our campsite at about 9:30pm.
Our camping neighbors from Statton Island,New York invited us for s'mores and coffee.
