Hi!
Pennsylvania is beautiful. I once lived in Kingston, Luzerne county
and found the most wonderful nature spot, Seven Tubs. I don't know if
any of you have visited there but if you have a chance please do. Here
is a website with a little description. I couldn't find my pictures
from my visit to post so I'm sorry for this. My friend and I swam in
the tubs and it was the most exhilarating thing to do. Also in the NE
Rickett's Glen is perfect for a dayhike and the waterfalls are lovely.
Anyone else hike here?

From Wikipedia...The Seven Tubs Natural Area is a publicly accessible
recreation area located in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, and owned by
the Luzerne County parks and recreation department. Continuously
flowing glacial melt-water gouged a line of smooth tubs in gritty
sandstone over 12,000 years ago.[1] The tubs are potholes formed by
the flowing water. The site is part of a 527-acre (2.13 km2) nature
area in the Pennsylvania mountains about four miles (6 km) south of
downtown Wilkes-Barre.[2] The site is popular among hikers for its
easy accessibility and beginner-level hiking environment.
