HAPPY NEW YEAR!The temperature has dropped. Its feeling it a little bit like winter. I switched to a heavier sweatshirt, cap, gloves and a scarf for today's walk.
Today Angel's family and I went to French Creek State Park for the First Day Hike. At least fifty of our closest friends joined us. There was probably more. I never expected so many people to show up. Most were not with the hiking group that was leading it.
It was a nice hike with varied terrain around one side of the lake and to Hopewell Furnace. There was some asphalt, some stone paths, and natural paths. There was a set of steep steps down to the dam.
When we finished we spent some time at the playground. The tween has x-ray vision when it comes to playgrounds!
I hadn't been to Hopewell Furnace since I was in Junior High. I remembered nothing. We'll have to go back on a day it is open.
Here's some pictures. Enjoy.

The stairs to the waterfall. Wish I had my walking stick with me.

The tween trying the rolling log. The faces are priceless. However,
she was the only one that could do it without falling.
