The Youghiogheny River

Mom and I went on a 3 mile hike on the Meadow Run Trail in Ohiopyle.

Ohiopyle is my new favorite place around here. It is a little river town about 30 minutes from our house. They have white water rafting, rock climbing, hiking and biking among many other things. We decided we would try one of the trails. The Meadow Run was perfect. It was challenging at some parts, but really beautiful and relaxing too.

It runs along side the river for the most part, but it also gets you deep in the woods where you are surrounded by nature and all it's glory. The sounds of the rushing water and the birds was Beautiful! We had a great time .

There were huge rocks and boulders that were amazing

Mom thought she would see what rock climbing is all about!

Destination!

Mother Nature in her own Element

Mushrooms

This bridge also serves as part of the bike trail. They took the old

Railroad that ran along the river and paved where the tracks were and made it into a bike trail

Makes for a nice smooth pretty ride!

We finished our morning with a Beautiful lunch at the River's Edge Cafe

it is also a Bed & Breakfast, they turned an old Victorian house into the cafe and they have cottage's right behind the cafe. The food was great!

It sits right by the river and it was so peaceful and quiet.
The cafe had a big wrap around porch with seating all around. We sat over looking the garden and the river. It was a perfect ending to a very fun day.

Grandma, Grandpa and Vicki would LOVE it here!
