Pine Creek Gorge ...the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania!

Never  heard of it? 

Neither had we ..... but we found it!

 

I'm not certain of the lore  but .. apparently there are angels that hover on ledges ... this was resting on a ledge about 20 feet down a section of the cliff.  If anyone knows the "story", please share.

The park is very beautiful.  We found a path and took a short hike for a few miles

 Mushrooms were everywhere.  Given the way the sunshine was falling on so many of them, my camera finger was working overtime!

As we began our assent back up the trail, my eye caught some movement off to my right. My first thought was "crap", we need some form of protection as we were wandering this forested section of the park without a soul in sight! Wasn't long before I realized that all I needed to "shoot" was my camera.  And, shoot I did!   This guy walked along side of us for about 50 feet.  He's stop and eat, take a look at us and then walk some more. I felt like I had been granted a special gift.

I think my father sent him to me ...... and he said, "Young Lady ... shoot"!  Funny thing is ... my Dad gave me my very first serious camera.

 Some day perhaps you will visit this lovely place ...be forewarned .... you may have to "shoot"!
