We hooked up the camper and headed North going to Nick's Graduation from law school. We spent the first night in Pennsylvania at the Twin Bridges Campground which we stayed at the last trip to see Nick and Amy. From there we headed to Delaware Water Gap NRA to do some hiking so we would break up our second day of traveling. We hiked the Tumbling Waters trail at the Pocono Environmental Education Center which had a million red salamanders. We ate lunch at the falls which were amazing. We hiked the Dingmans Creek trail which had the Silver Thread Falls as well, and the Raymondskill Falls trail which has the upper, middle, and lower falls. Then we drove to Massachusetts and stayed at the Partridge Hollow Campground in Monson. Very friendly folks that run this place.
The next morning we headed over to Nick's and visited before heading over to the Basketball Hall of Fame where we met up with Amy and her family. That was interesting even for someone not interested in basketball. We found Pat Summit's display with all the UT Orange colors. From there we headed to lunch. After lunch we headed over to Western New England college for a tour and a reception/lecture on the Bar Exam that Nick is going to take. Sounds like two months of serious study! Then we met Nick's Dad and family for dinner. After dinner we checked out the new casino in Springfield.
Sunday morning Lora and I hiked the Munn Dike trail next to the campground and then we headed to church at the Trinity UMC which is a beautiful church. It was an inspiring service, which helped to not get lost staring at all the beauty inside the sanctuary. Then we met up with everyone for lunch. After lunch we attended the Graduation followed by the celebration dinner with delicious seafood.
Monday after we checked out of the campground, we headed back to meet everyone for a bagel breakfast before heading South. We camped at the Twin Bridges campground on the way back.
