Spring Camping

Last weekend Kim and I went camping in the Pocono Mountains. It was a beautiful weekend and the weather was perfect. We stayed at The Delaware Water Gap/Pocono Mountain KOA campground. We like KOA campgrounds because they generally have high standards and are usually very clean. This is important when tent camping. At least to me it is:) Here is a shot of us in front of our tent.


I must admit that tent camping is not always my first choice. I prefer cabin camping. Especially in the hotter summer months. Being Spring however it was a very comfortable stay. It also helped that aside from the campers on one side of us that were hardly around at all we were pretty much alone.

Of course no camping trip is complete without a campfire.


And lots of nature:)

During the weekend we were going to take a drive over to Bushkill Falls which was only about ten minutes from us but after talking to some of the campsite regulars and one of the employees we decided to check out Dingmans Falls instead.

Visitor Center at Dingmans Falls

Dingmans Falls is part of The Delaware Water Gap National Park. I highly recommend visiting if you happen to be in the area. It's a bit of walking but very much worth it. Of course I shot lots of photos. I'll be sharing some of them in my next post in a day or so along with a couple other places we traveled to.

Gotta go for now but here are a couple more shots at the campground.

Thanks for stopping by! I'll be posting again in a day or so so please check back.

Until next time...

    1. Yes I did. But I was much younger then -- in my 30s. Don't think I could do it now.
